Notation Conventions
This manual uses the following notation conventions.
Warnings, Cautions, and Notes
Warnings, cautions, and notes provide special information and have the following
meanings:
WA R N I N G
A warning indicates a situation where failure to take
or avoid a specified action could cause bodily harm
or loss of life.

A caution indicates a situation where failure to take or
avoid a specified action could damage a hardware device,
program, system, or data.
NOTE
A note provides important information about the operation
of a Stratus system.
Typographical Conventions
The following typographical conventions are used in this manual:
Italics introduces or defines new terms. For example:
The master disk is the name of the member disk from which the module was
booted.
Boldface emphasizes words in text. For example:
Every module must have a copy of the module_start_up.cm file.

Monospace represents text that would appear on your terminals screen (such as
commands, subroutines, code fragments, and names of files and directories).

For example:
change_current_dir (master_disk)>system>doc
viii
Preface
Monospace italic represents terms that are to be replaced by literal values. In the
following example, the user must replace the monospace-italic term with a literal
value.
list_users -module module_name
Monospace bold represents user input in examples and figures that contain both
user input and system output (which appears in monospace). For example:
display_access_list system_default
%dev#m1>system>acl>system_default
w
*.*
Format for Commands and Requests

Stratus manuals use the following format conventions for documenting commands and
requests. (A request is typically a command used within a subsystem, such as
analyze_system.) Note that the command and request descriptions do not
necessarily include each of the following sections.

Chapter 1
1-
VOS Enterprise Backup Agent is based on the Network Data Management

Protocol (NDMP), an open protocol that facilitates network-based backup and recovery
operations across different hardware and software platforms. VOS Enterprise Backup
Agent allows you to integrate a VOS system into Veritas NetBackup, an enterprise
backup system (EBS) that supports NDMP.
NOTES
1. In this document, EBS refers specifically to the Veritas
NetBackup software, not to any other types of
enterprise backup systems.
2. To use VOS Enterprise Backup Agent, Veritas
NetBackup 6.0 is required.
VOS Enterprise Backup Agent effectively automates the existing VOS save and
restore commands, running them as directed by the EBS. To provide greater
compatibility with your tape-backup scripts, you can configure VOS Enterprise Backup
Agent to use specific save or restore command-line arguments. For more
information, see The ndmpd.table Configuration File on page 1-5 and Optional
NDMP Environment Settings for Backup Operations on page 1-12. For more
information about the VOS save and restore commands, see VOS System
Administration: Backing Up and Restoring Data (R285).
Previously, VOS customers needed to rely on tape for backup. Now, with VOS
Enterprise Backup Agent, you can perform backups with the media supported by the
EBS.

System Requirements for Installation

To install VOS Enterprise Backup Agent, you need:
VOS Release 14.7.x or later for Continuum-series modules (this includes modules
with PA-7100 and PA-8x00 processors), or VOS Release 15.2.x or later for
ftServer modules
approximately 300 blocks of disk space on the master disk
STCP with POSIX header dependencyIssue the check_posix command to
verify that your system meets all POSIX requirements. This command checks that
the current module's configuration meets constraints imposed by the VOS
1-2
POSIX.1 implementation. See the VOS POSIX.1 Reference Guide (R502) for
more information about the check_posix command.
Installation Procedure
Before you install VOS Enterprise Backup Agent from the magnetic tape provided by
Stratus, verify that the purchase bit for VOS Enterprise Backup Agent is set on your
system. To do this, issue the following command:
!display_line (software_purchased S683)
If the output of this command is 1, you can proceed with installation. If it is 0, contact
your Stratus customer-support representative for assistance.
NOTE
S683 is the software-purchased bit for VOS Enterprise
Backup Agent support. You must purchase S683 to install
the software and to receive Stratus documentation and
support.
To install VOS Enterprise Backup Agent, issue the following command.
install_new_release
For information about this command, see the VOS Installation Guide (R386).
During the post-boot phase of the installation, the install_new_release command
displays the VOS Enterprise Backup Agent license (Appendix A also displays this text),
followed by the following prompt.
Do you accept the terms of this license (yes, no, redisplay,
print)?
Enter one of the choices and press <Return>. The following are the possible results:
yesThe installation continues.
noThe installation terminates.
redisplayThe install_new_release command displays the license text
and the prompt again.

printThe install_new_release command prints a copy of the license text
on the default printer and displays the prompt again.

The install_new_release command installs VOS Enterprise Backup Agent in the
directory (master_disk)>system.
1-3
After installation, you must modify the two sample .tin files located in the directory
>system>configuration as follows:
1. Copy the ndmpd.sample.tin and ndmpd_users.sample.tin files, and then
rename them to ndmpd.tin and ndmpd_users.tin, respectively. See
Configuring VOS Enterprise Backup Agent on page 1-5 for information about the
ndmpd.table and ndmpd_users.table files.
2. Issue the create_table command for the two .tin files to create corresponding
.table files.
3. For security purposes, delete the ndmpd_users.tin file.
4. Make sure that the ndmpd.table and ndmpd_users.table files are located in
the >system directory, and remove all access to ndmpd_users.table, except
for root.* read access.
After installation and configuration, the VOS Enterprise Backup Agent directory
structure should appear as shown in Figure 1-1.

VOS Enterprise Backup Agent uses two configuration files: ndmpd.table and
ndmpd_users.table. The following sections describe these configuration files.
The ndmpd.table Configuration File on page 1-5
The ndmpd_users.table Configuration File on page 1-7
The ndmpd.table Configuration File

VOS Enterprise Backup Agent uses the ndmpd.table file for its configuration. This
file is located in (master_disk)>system unless you specify otherwise with the -c
argument of the ndmpd command.
Descriptions of the fields for each entry in the ndmpd.table file follow.
* version
The version of the NDMP configuration structure. Specify a value of 1 for this field.
* EBS_name
Required
The name of the EBS. Specify the value Veritas for this field.
* level0_backup_flag
If set to Y or 1, uses the save commands -backup argument during a level-0
backup. For more information, see Backing Up Data on page 1-11 and The
Level-Timestamp File on page 1-14.
* save_options
Concatenates VOS save command-line arguments to the end of the save
invocation. By default, nothing is concatenated to the end of the save invocation.
The command line containing the save arguments is limited to 256 characters in
length. An example of the command-line arguments is the -log argument. For
more information about the VOS save command, see VOS System
Administration: Backing Up and Restoring Data (R285).
NOTE
The save_options field is added before the NDMP
environment variable SAVE_OPTIONS. See Table 1-1 for
more information about SAVE_OPTIONS.
* restore_options
Concatenates VOS restore command-line arguments to the end of the restore
invocation. By default, nothing is concatenated to the end of the restore
invocation. The command line containing the restore arguments is limited to 256
characters in length. An example of the command-line arguments is the
1-5
-restore_acls argument. For more information about the VOS restore

command, see VOS System Administration: Backing Up and Restoring
Data (R285).
* log_VOS_macros
If set to Y or 1, logs, in the ndmpd_log.(date).out file (located in
>system>ndmpd>log), all save and restore command process execution and
output. By default, this information is logged in the ndmpd_log.(date).out file.
* log_NDMP_session_variables
If set to Y or 1, logs, in the ndmpd_log.(date).out file, the NDMP environment
variables sent to VOS Enterprise Backup Agent. By default, this information is
logged in the ndmpd_log.(date).out file.
* log_table_options
If set to Y or 1, logs, in the ndmpd_log.(date).out file, a listing of the values in
the ndmpd configuration table. By default, the listing is logged in the
ndmpd_log.(date).out file.
* log_transfer_rate
If this value, in seconds, is greater than zero, VOS Enterprise Backup Agent logs,
in the ndmpd_log.(date).out file, the I/O rate as the number of bytes
processed per second in a specified interval to this file. By default, this information
is logged in the ndmpd_log.(date).out file.
Entries in the ndmpd.sample.tin File

The following entry is from the ndmpd.sample.tin file.
NOTE
Do not enter the plus (+) sign that appears in the example;
it is a line-continuation character. One line in a device
entry can extend beyond one terminal-screen line. As you
enter characters in a line that extends beyond one
terminal-screen line, a plus sign automatically begins the
second terminal-screen line to indicate that the line
continues on a second terminal-screen line.

The ndmpd_users.table Configuration File

VOS Enterprise Backup Agent uses a simple table to verify authentication from the
EBS. NDMP credentials are separate from and unrelated to the VOS system
credentials, so, for security purposes, VOS Enterprise Backup Agent login names and
passwords should be different from VOS login names and passwords.
NOTE
For security purposes, general users should have null
access to the ndmpd_users.table file. Only the user
running the daemon (typically, the root user) should
have read access to the ndmpd_users.table file. For
information about logging in as root, see the VOS
POSIX.1 Reference Guide (R502).
Descriptions of the fields for each entry in the ndmpd_users.table file follow.
* username
Required
The user name that the EBS authentication sends to VOS Enterprise Backup
Agent.
* password
Required
Password that the EBS authentication sends to VOS Enterprise Backup Agent.

The ndmpd command description follows.
Display Form
The ndmpd command does not have a display form.
Command-Line Form
ndmpd [-c ndmpd_table_file]
[-p port]
[-w]
Arguments
* -c ndmpd_table_file
Specifies which ndmpd configuration table to use. By default, the command uses
the file (master_disk)>system>ndmpd.table.
* -p port
The TCP port number on which the NDMP server is listening for connection
requests. By default, the value of port is 10000.
* -w
1-8
Specifies whether to perform a TCP wrappers check on incoming connections, as

specified by the hosts.allow and hosts.deny file. By default, the command
does not perform a TCP wrappers check. See Security Issues on page 1-15 and
the VOS STREAMS TCP/IP Administrators Guide (R419) for information about
the hosts.allow and hosts.deny files.

Typically, most users place an entry in the module_start_up.cm file to automatically
start VOS Enterprise Backup Agent upon system boot. To do so, uncomment the
following lines (if they exist) in your module_start_up.cm file, or add the following
lines to the file. To uncomment a command line, delete the ampersand (&) and the
space at the beginning of the command line. Be sure that the following entry is located
after module_start_up.cm invokes the start_stcp.cm command macro and
initializes the STCP stack. (See the VOS STREAMS TCP/IP Administrators
Guide (R419) for more information about start_stcp.cm.)

You can also find the preceding text in the start_ndmpd.cm file in the
>system>ndmpd>bin directory.
NOTES
1. You must start STCP before you start VOS Enterprise
Backup Agent.
2. You should avoid starting VOS Enterprise Backup
Agent from the command line. Use the
start_ndmp.cm file, instead.
3. The ndmpd.pm process should run as a root process
in order to gain read access to the
ndmpd_users.table file.
4. The ndmpd.pm process must start as privileged.
1-9
Log Files
The preceding start_process command starts the VOS Enterprise Backup Agent
daemon (ndmpd) as a privileged process and sends any process start-up errors to a
file named ndmpd_start.(date).out. The command also sets implicit locking on
the ndmpd_start.(date).out file.
When a connection is made to the VOS Enterprise Backup Agent daemon from the
EBS, the daemon forks off a new process to handle the NDMP session. These
processes are called session instances. VOS Enterprise Backup Agent supports one
NDMP session instance at a time from the EBS. Session instances log messages to
the file >system>ndmpd>log>ndmpd_log.(date).out. Each session instance
logs messages with its own process ID at the beginning of the line so that the
messages from each session instance can be distinguished from one another.
If multiple sets of VOS Enterprise Backup Agent daemons with different command-line
arguments need to run at the same time, use the ndmpd -p command to select a
different service port so that the EBS can select the appropriate daemon. Each VOS
Enterprise Backup Agent type can then be started, as necessary. Each of these types
shares the same ndmpd_log.(date).out file.
The VOS Enterprise Backup Agent session instances also start the save and
restore processes, as necessary. The names of these processes are appended with
the process ID of the session instance so that each save or restore instance can be
correlated with a particular session instance.
Log Files
VOS Enterprise Backup Agent creates the following log files. All are stored in the
>system>ndmpd>log directory.
ndmpd_log.(date).outThis log file is created by session instances. Each
time a connection is made, the timestamp ((date)) is updated so that a new log
file is created for each day that a backup or recovery option occurs. It can contain
the following information, depending on which fields you specify in the ndmpd.tin
file:
the NDMP environment variables sent to VOS Enterprise Backup Agent
a listing of the values read in from the ndmpd configuration table
the I/O rate as the number of bytes processed per second on a specified
interval
save.(date).(time).logIf you specify the -log argument (as shown in the
save_options field of the ndmpd.tin file), any save process that the VOS
Enterprise Backup Agent starts will log information about every object saved.
save.(date).(time).outThis file logs all save command process
execution and output.

restore.(date).(time).outThis file logs all restore command process
execution and output. If you specify the -list argument (as shown in the
restore_options field of the ndmpd.tin file), any restore process that the
VOS Enterprise Backup Agent starts will list the save path name of each object as
it is restored.
VOS Enterprise Backup Agent can also log debugging information. For more
information, see the Veritas NetBackup documentation listed in Related Manuals in the
Preface.
Backing Up Data
When a backup operation starts, VOS Enterprise Backup Agent creates a command
line with the arguments (as specified in the ndmpd.tin file or the EBS) for the VOS
save command, then it executes the command line. During a full backup, if
level0_backup_flag is set in the ndmpd.table file, VOS Enterprise Backup
Agent runs the save command with the -backup argument. Differential and
cumulative incremental backups run the save command with the -modified
argument.
NOTES
1. Differential and cumulative backups include data that
has been modified since the beginning of the initial full
backup. For more information, see The
Level-Timestamp File on page 1-14.
2. You can set additional save command arguments by
using the save_options field in the ndmpd.table
file and/or the SAVE_OPTIONS session setting in the
EBS. For more information, see The ndmpd.table
Configuration File on page 1-5 and Optional NDMP
Environment Settings for Backup Operations on
page 1-12.
The save command runs in the background with the name
ndmp_save_process_id. Meanwhile, a connection is made back to the EBS,
providing it with the backup data. When the save command has completed, the
connection closes, and the process that is handling the connection terminates.

Backing Up Data
Setting a Backup in Veritas NetBackup

NDMP backup policies are set up as described in the Veritas NetBackup
documentation (see Related Manuals in the Preface), with the following caveats:
You must specify a backup setting selection of SET TYPE=save in order to ensure
compatibility with Veritas NDMP direct restore.

You must use POSIX-style pathnames for backup file-system selections. The
pathname must begin with a slant (/) character, and any directories are delimited
with slant characters (for example, /%system#disk/dir). Any links in the
pathname specification are chased to their ultimate destination. Do not include a
trailing slant character at the end of the pathname.
You can specify only one pathname in each backup filesystem selection.
Optional NDMP Environment Settings for Backup Operations

The EBS can pass additional NDMP session settings to VOS Enterprise Backup Agent.
In Veritas NetBackup, specify additional NDMP session settings by adding new backup
setting selections to a policy. The settings are in the form SET NAME=VALUE. For more
information, see the Veritas NetBackup documentation listed in Related Manuals in the
Preface.
VOS Enterprise Backup Agent supports the optional NDMP environment settings listed
in Table 1-1. You specify these settings in the EBS to control the backup operation.
Table 1-1. Optional NDMP Environment Settings
Environment Setting
Description
EXCLUDE=star_name . . .
Specifies the object star name(s) to exclude from the

backup operation. This is implemented in the save
command with the -do_not_save argument. Star names
must be separated by at least one space. You do not need
to enclose this list in single quote (') marks. Star names
must not be pathnames (that is, they cannot contain >, /,
%, #, and so on). By default, no files are excluded.
Example: EXCLUDE=*.temp _*
SAVE_OPTIONS=
save_parameters
Allows you to specify any additional save command

arguments. These arguments are entered after all other
parameters (even those specified in the save_options
field of the ndmpd.table file).
Example:
SAVE_OPTIONS='-control_file eod.control'
1-12
Restoring Data
NOTES
1. If you set the same NDMP environment setting
multiple times during the session, VOS Enterprise
Backup Agent uses only the last setting. For example,
if you specify EXCLUDE=*.temp and then
EXCLUDE=*.tmp, VOS Enterprise Backup Agent
excludes only *.tmp files from the backup.
2. Any VOS file name containing a slant character (/) is
translated into a less-than character (<) during the
backup. During a recovery operation, the less-than
character is translated into a slant character to
maintain the original file name. These translations
occur because the file-name information is sent to the
EBS in POSIX format to ensure compatibility. For
example, the VOS file name
%sw#disk2>myfile/07/2007.txt would be
translated into the VOS Enterprise Backup Agent file
name /%sw#disk2/myfile<07<2007.txt.
Restoring Data
When you start a recovery operation, VOS Enterprise Backup Agent creates a
command line with the arguments (as specified in the ndmpd.tin file or the EBS) for
the VOS restore command, then it executes the command line.
NOTE
You can set additional restore command arguments by
using the restore_options field in the ndmpd.table
file. For more information, see The ndmpd.table
Configuration File on page 1-5.
The restore command runs in the background with the name
ndmp_restore_process_id. Meanwhile, the EBS provides the recovery data to
VOS Enterprise Backup Agent for processing. When the restore command has
completed, the connection closes and the process that is handling the connection
terminates.
This section discusses the following topic: Setting a Restore in Veritas NetBackup on
page 1-14.
1-13
Setting a Restore in Veritas NetBackup

NDMP file recovery is performed as described in the Veritas NetBackup documentation
(see Related Manuals in the Preface), with the following caveats:
In order to ensure compatibility with Veritas NDMP direct restore, you must have
specified a backup setting selection of SET TYPE=save during the original save
operation.
You must use POSIX-style pathnames for restoration locations. The pathname
must begin with a slant (/) character, and any directories are delimited with slant
characters (for example, /%system#disk/dir). Any links in the pathname
specification are chased to their ultimate destination. Do not include a trailing slant
character at the end of the pathname.
Restoring an object to a different location re-creates the objects common save
path (that is, parent directories). For example, if you restore the file
/%system#disk/dir1/dir2/file to the directory
/%system#disk/restore_dir, Veritas NetBackup creates a file named
/%system#disk/restore_dir/dir1/dir2/file.

To stop VOS Enterprise Backup Agent and related processes, issue the following
command while logged in as root:
stop_process ndmp*
If a session instance is also running, the preceding command terminates it
automatically. Any save or restore commands required by VOS Enterprise Backup
Agent will have been started as ndmp_save_process_id and
ndmp_restore_process_id (where process_id is the process identifier of the
ndmpd.pm daemon). The preceding command terminates these save and restore
processes as well.
For information about logging in as root, see the VOS POSIX.1 Reference
Guide (R502).
The Level-Timestamp File

The NDMP protocol provides a LEVELS setting (maintained automatically by the EBS)
to implement full and incremental backup types.
To implement differential and cumulative backups, as specified by the LEVEL
environment option, VOS Enterprise Backup Agent must maintain a record of when a
particular level backup was last performed for each given path name. Using these
recorded dates, VOS Enterprise Backup Agent issues a save -modified
1-14
Security Issues
timestamp command limiting the dataset to those files updated since the recorded
time. The file containing this record, ndmp_level_timestamp_file, is called the
level-timestamp file. This file is located in the >system>ndmpd>bin directory.
For example, a system administrator begins the week by performing a LEVEL=0
backup, which is effectively a full backup. The level-timestamp file records the date and
time of this operation. The next day, the administrator performs a differential
incremental LEVEL=1 backup. VOS Enterprise Backup Agent backs up only those files
updated since the level-0 backup. On another day, the administrator runs a LEVEL=2
differential backup. This time, only those files updated since the level-1 backup are
saved.
Each subsequent increased-level backup records differential incremental backups (up
to level 9) until the system administrator performs a lower-level backup. All levels
greater than the current backup level are reset in the level-timestamp file. After a
LEVEL=0 backup is executed, all other level timestamps are reset.
NOTES
1. Full backups are implemented as a level-0 backup.
2. Cumulative incremental backups (level-1) include
files that have been modified since the beginning of
the initial full (level-0) save.
3. Differential incremental backups (last level +1, up
to 9) include files that have been modified since the
beginning of the previous level (full or differential)
backup.
For more information about backups, see the Veritas NetBackup documentation listed
in Related Manuals in the Preface.

TCP Wrappers Check

If you started VOS Enterprise Backup Agent with the ndmpd -w command, the VOS
Enterprise Backup Agent daemon verifies access before forking a child to process the
connection. The daemon logs all connections, successful and refused, to the ndmpd
connection log in the >system>stcp>logs directory.

Security Issues
NOTE
Any user names specified in the VOS Enterprise Backup
Agent log files, the ndmpd_users.table file, and in
Veritas NetBackup refer to NDMP user names. Any user
names specified for TCP wrappers refer to VOS user
names.
The following sample hosts.allow and hosts.deny entries enable only
connections to the VOS Enterprise Backup Agent from IP address 172.16.3.28.
Sample hosts.allow entry:
>system>ndmpd>bin>ndmpd.pm : 172.16.3.28
Connections from 172.16.3.28 are permitted and processed by VOS Enterprise
Backup Agent, and the following entry is logged to the file
>system>stcp>logs>tcpdallow:
07-06-06 13:36:39 edt ndmpd: connect from 172.16.3.28
Sample hosts.deny entry:
>system>ndmpd>bin>ndmpd.pm : ALL
Connections from any IP address other than 172.16.3.28 are denied, and the following
entry is logged to the file >system>stcp>logs>tcpddeny:
07-06-06 13:46:18 edt ndmpd: refused connect from 172.16.3.32
For more information about TCP wrappers and hosts.allow and hosts.deny
entries, see the VOS STREAMS TCP/IP Administrators Guide (R419).
TCP Connections and Firewalls

The VOS Enterprise Backup Agent daemon (ndmpd) listens, by default, on port 10,000.
You can change this port with the ndmpd -p command. The EBS makes a TCP
connection to ndmpd on this port. The EBS sends supervisory messages to ndmpd on
this socket, while ndmpd sends supervisory responses, status, and catalog information
to the EBS on the same socket.
While setting up the backup operation, the EBS sends a message to ndmpd to make a
TCP connection to the EBS-managed backup device (that is, the tape or disk). In this
message, the EBS supplies the IP address and port for ndmpd to connect to. The
ndmpd daemon cannot affect this IP address or port number. The EBS-supplied IP
1-16
Security Issues
address may or may not be an IP address associated with the system that is running
the EBS.
While setting up the recovery operation, the EBS sends a message to ndmpd to set up
a listen port for a TCP connection. The ndmpd daemon gets the local systems IP
address, and then binds a socket to address 0.0.0.0, port 0, to have the TCP stack
assign an unused port. The ndmpd daemon then sends a listen reply to the EBS with
the local systems IP address and the port number that was actually bound. The EBS
sends this information to the backup device so that it can connect to ndmpd.
If you have a firewall between VOS Enterprise Backup Agent, the EBS, and/or the
backup device, you must ensure that these entities can establish TCP connections with
one another through the firewall. For more information, see the Veritas NetBackup
documentation listed in Related Manuals in the Preface.
