Storix System Backup Administrator 2 Quick Start Guide

Network Edition Quick Start

The following steps are for SBAdmin Network Edition. It is assumed that the SBAdmin interface is running, and the SBAdmin

Client/Server software is installed on the remote clients and servers. The following steps describe how to configure a client and a

server, create a backup job which writes a system backup from a client to a server, and make CDROM ISO boot image to be used for

performing system recovery.

1. Configure Clients

A client is defined as any system that will be backed up using

SBAdmin. The local system running the SBAdmin interface

(the Administrator) must also be configured as a client before

it may be backed up.

Note: While the Administrator system may be configured as a

backup server, it is not required. Any client may also be

configured as a backup server.

a. To add a client, select Configure!Clients from the menu

bar and the Linux/AIX/Solaris Clients screen will

display.

b. In the Client Hostname/IP field type the hostname or IP

address of the client you would like to backup.

c. Local Disk or Tape:

If, instead of sending system backups to a server, you

want to backup to media directly attached to the client,

select the tab with the type (Disk, or Tape) of device you

wish to create. Within each tab is the configuration for

each type of Local System Backup Device.

d. Press the Save button to update the client.

Refer to the section Clients in the SBAdmin User Guide for

further documentation.

2. Configure Servers and Devices

A server is defined as any system on which backups will be

stored. Backups are stored on the server in devices which

may be either tape or directories.

Note that a server will not be needed if you chose to backup

your client(s) to local disk or tape, as described above.

a. To configure a server select Configure!Servers from the

menu bar and the Configure Server screen will display.

b. In the Server Hostname or IP field, enter the hostname

or IP address of the server you would like to write the

backup to.

c. Press the New Server button and the following default

directory devices will be created:

d. /backups/data/%G/%C

e. /backups/system/%G/%C

f. /backups/system/%G/shared

g. The device names correspond to directory names on the

server in which backups will be stored.

h. Press the Save button to update the server.

Refer to the sections Servers and Backup Devices in the

SBAdmin User Guide for further documentation.

3. Create a System Backup Job

A backup job must be created before any backup may be

performed. There are many features and options available

when configuring backup jobs that are not included in this

document. Refer to the section Backup Jobs in the SBAdmin

User Guide for further documentation.

To configure a backup job:

a. Select Configure!Backup Jobs from the menu bar and

the Configure Backup Job screen will display.

b. Enter a Job ID to identify this job.

c. Select the server from the from the Server Name listbox

If you wish to backup a single client to its own local tape

or disk (see Configuring Clients), select “local (client

tape/disk)” from the list.

d. From the Profile Name listbox, select the

“FULL_SYSTEM” profile.

e. In the Volume Group Name(s) or Zpool Name(s) field,

enter “all” or the individual volume groups or ZFS pools

you wish to include in the backup.

f. Select the Client(s) you want to include in the backup

job. If backing up a client to its local tape or disk, you

can only select one client for each job.

g. Select the device you want the backup written to from the

Backup Device listbox. Only SBTAPE or SBDIR will be

available if you selected “local (client tape/disk)” for the

server above.

Note that when selecting a device that uses %C naming

convention, only the original client will be able to restore

from the backup.

h. Indicate the Backup Schedule for this backup job or

select to run the job “On Demand”.

i. Press the Save button to update the job configuration and

close the window.

4. Run the System Backup Job

The backup job will run according to the Backup Schedule

specified when creating the backup job in step #3. You may

also start any job at any time as follows:

a. Select Actions!Run Backup Jobs from the menu bar.

b. Select the Job ID created in the previous step at the top

of the screen.

c. Press the Run Now button.
