Setup Instructions for the HP OpenStorage (OST) Plug-in for Symantec NetBackup using HP StoreOnce Backup Systems

7 Setting up NetBackup with Federated Catalyst Stores
HP OpenStorage (OST) v3.0 or later supports Federated Catalyst Stores which enable HP StoreOnce
Catalyst Stores to span across multiple service sets; thereby, enabling Catalyst Store capacities
larger than the physical capacity of an HP StoreOnce appliance. Federated Catalyst Stores also
simplify the management of large backup targets. The use of a HP StoreOnce federated Catalyst
Store is transparent to NetBackup (NBU). The backup user must connect to one or any storage
server (that is part of the Federated Catalyst Store), and configure NBU. For details on creating
and managing federated Catalyst Stores, refer to the HP StoreOnce Backup System User Guide.
NOTE: OST v3.0 is qualified with Federated StoreOnce Catalyst stores. However, Federated
StoreOnce Catalyst stores is a controlled release feature and can only be enabled on request to
HP.
