[Veritas-bu] How do I add a Media Server to an existing NetBackup environment?

[Justin Piszcz]

Simple, edit your bp.conf file and make sure the top entry shows up 
as SERVER = your_master_server

Hm.

I now installed NetBackup 6.0 MP4 on a Solaris 9 system by running the
install script from the NetBackup6.0MP4_Solaris_Server.tar file. It did
show me the prompt mentioned above. Any ideas, about why that might be
so?

And, more importantly, how do I tell the just installed NetBackup,
that this machine is not the master server, but that "xyz" instead is
the master server?

You can find the automatically created install_trace file at

Best regards,
