A quick update is that I was able to configure the NetApp using the
tpconfig -add -nh command line. It finished with no errors and the NDMP
host gui window now shows the NetApp. The set_ndmp_attr -verify works
and seems to talk to the filer OK. The tpautoconf still fails. A test
backup policy fails with error 57 and the connection refused to host
message.
I think I'm getting closer. Any additional suggestions would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff

The tpautoconf doesn't work because it won't let me set up the filer

entries from the master server. It appears the requests are not
actually getting sent.
The pbx is something I don't know much about. Is it possible this
isn't configured correctly and may be causing the problem?
Thanks,

Run "tpautoconf -verify /ndmp_host_name/" and verify that access is
granted
Its located in /usr/openv/volmgr/bin
If it failes, enable ndmp debugging on the filer (ndmpd debug 50),
and re-run
Check the filer's ndmps log (generally in
//filername/$/etc/ndmpd.log) for clues.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] NDMP authentication failing for NetApp.
Greetings,
I'm trying to get a remote NDMP backup connection going between my
new 6.5.3 RHEL master and one of our NetApp filers (7.2.5.1). We
have a non-root account on the filer (ndmpuser) and have given it a
password. This has been used by Operations Manager in the past with
no problems. When I try to set up credentials for that NDMP host, I
use the user name "ndmpuser" and the encrypted password I got from
running "ndmpd password ndmpuser" on the filer. This fails
authentication. The filer is running NDMP version 4.
The error message is coming back saying the media servers could not
be reached or the credentials are invalid. The tape library is on
the master server so I have not set the filer up as a media server.
The filer is a production system getting backups from 4 different
countries so I'm reluctant to start changing NDMP levels or password
length options.
Please tell me what I'm missing.
Thanks,
Jeff
