Enable NDMP on EMC Celerra Devices

To access the NDMP Host Data Movers on an EMC Celerra server, you must first enable the server.

To enable a device through a Telnet session

1. Verify that each NDMP Host Data Mover can recognize its tape library units by entering the following command:

   $ server_devconfig <server_name> -probe -scsi -nondisks
   

   Example: In the following example, the EMC Celerra server recognizes a two-drive library. The jbox value represents the tape library unit. In the next statements, tape represents the tape drives.

   chain=1, scsi-1
   symm_id= 0 symm_type= 0
   tid/lun= 0/0 type= jbox info= ATL P1000 62200501.21
   tid/lun= 4/0 type= tape info= QUANTUM DLT7000 245Fq_
   tid/lun= 5/0 type= tape info= QUANTUM DLT7000 245Fq_
   

2. Configure the devices with the Celerra File Server by adding them to the host database using the following command:

   $ server_devconfig <server_name> -create -scsi -nondisks
   

   When a device is configured, the server responds with the following:

   <server_name>: done
   

3. Enter the following command to verify that the configuration is set:

   $ server_devconfig <server_name> -list -scsi -nondisks
   

   The server responds with the following:

   <server_name>:
   Scsi Device Table
   name addr type info
   jbox1 c1t010 jbox ATL P1000 62200501.21
   tape2 c1t410 tape QUANTUM DLT7000 245Fq_
   tape3 c1t510 tape QUANTUM DLT7000 245Fq_
