Preview: Post Keystone Beta Devices GUI

Overview and Benefits

Problem– No Graphical User Interface (GUI) for configuring and re-configuring

devices to NetWorker

This feature solves the problem by:– Providing a GUI for auto configuring libraries within NetWorker– Providing a GUI for re-configuring NetWorker libraries

Limitations

Only support auto configuring SCSI, NDMP and STL Silo library types

Does not support auto configuring RSM and AlphaStor library types

- use jbconfig CLI to configure RSM and AlphaStor libraries

Does not support auto configuring library which does not return its devices’ serial number

- use “sn –a b.t.l” CLI to verify that the library does not return its

devices’ serial number

- use jbconfig CLI to configure libraries which do not return

serial numbers

Does not support auto configuring NDMP library on NDMP Tape Server running at NDMP Protocol version 2.

- use jbconfig CLI to configure NDMP libraries on NDMP Tape Server

running at NDMP Protocol version 2.

Stand-alone ADV_file is added

Delete Stand-alone Device

Auto Configuration Failure and Common Causes

Auto Configuration Failure

After auto configuration is finished:

- No library is auto configured

- Library is shown as unconfigured library

Common Causes

- Device driver is not installed properly

- Auto detection fails to match up detected library and its devices:

- Old device firmware

- Library does not return its devices’ serial numbers

- Auto detection is failed to start on storage nodes

Troubleshooting

Check the Monitoring -> Log

Run the “sn –a b.t.l” CLI to verify that the library returns its devices’ serial number

If b.t.l of a library is not known, run the inquire CLI first

BusbTargettLUNl

Troubleshooting – Auto Configuration Failure

Device Driver is not installed properly

• Device Paths are missing. Most likely the device driver is not installed properly

Expected:Tape, \\.\Tape0Tape, \\.\Tape1

• Library does not return its devices’ serial numbers. Check if the firmware is up-to-dated, or if the library is not able to return its devices’ serial numbers.
