Setting up a Vault policy differs from setting up a regular policy in NetBackup, as follows:
Third, rather than specifying files to back up on the Backup Selections tab, you specify one of two Vault commands to run.
Use the vltrun command to run a Vault session. You specify the robot, vault name, and profile for the job. The vltrun command accomplishes all the steps necessary to vault media. If the profile is configured for immediate eject, media are ejected and reports are generated. If the vault profile name is unique, use the following format:
vltrun profile_name
If the vault profile name is not unique, use the following format:
vltrun robot_number/vault_name/profile_name
Use the vlteject command to eject media or generate reports for sessions that are completed already and for which media have not been ejected. The vlteject command can process the pending ejects or reports for all sessions, for a specific robot, for a specific vault, or for a specific profile. For example:
vlteject -vault vault_name -eject -report
For more information about the vlteject and the vltrun commands, see the NetBackup Commands for UNIX or NetBackup Commands for Windows manual.
For more information about creating NetBackup policies, see the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I.
