CIFS and NFS backup of Celerra using BackupExec 12 - NON NDMP
Folks, I'm having difficulty setting up BackupExec 12d on a backup server to browse/backup user defined shares presented from an NS20. I installed services for Unix and I can map both the CIFS and NFS shares as drive letters.
Using UNC paths, I get challenged for Backupexec credentials and nothing works. I've read a few posts about changing the NDMP port so I've changed the NDMP port on the BE server to something other than 10000, but that causes "nework share is no longer avaible"
Can someone share their successful experiences setting up BackupExec in order to browse/backup a Celerra help, non NDMP of course?
Thanks for the suggestion but already have. The Celerra CIFS are joined to the domain and I'm using domain admin accounts. Yes, the enable selection of user shares is selected.
This can be resolved by modifying the 'c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\services' file on the BackupExec server.
Open the services file and check to see if a line for NDMP has already been defined, if it exists it should look like the following:
ndmp 10000/tcp #Network Data Management Protocol
If the defined entry is set to use tcp port 10000 ( '10000/tcp' ) you will need to modify the port number and set it to something OTHER than 10000.
For example:
ndmp 10001/tcp #Network Data Management Protocol
If a line for NDMP does not already exist in the services file add a new line at the end of the file for NDMP and set the port to something OTHER than 10000 (the default NDMP port). Dont forget to save the modified services file.
The new line should look like the example below (you can just copy and paste the example):

also try:
Ensure that the option to Enable selection of user shares is selected under Tools | Options | Network in Backup Exec
