RM - post script Firewall obstacle

Hi,

We wish to submit a post script to the backup server which is over the Firewall, which ports do we need to open.

Thanks
Faz

    Hey - no worries

    Nothing to do with RM, I would suspect, depending on how you config your script, you are either talking rexec, ssh/sshd, or telnet ports between those backend hosts.

    Hi Faz

    Typically the post-mount script occurs on the mount host itself., so you would need an RM agent there.

    Backup and mount scripts

    Mount scripts If you specify a mount script, Replication Manager runs the specified
    script on the mount host after successfully mounting the replica. To
    use mount scripts, perform the following steps...

    Hi,

    Thanks for the update. I guess what I want to know is, the script which will be running on the post script in RM will be communicating to a server which has no RM agent, in this case which port would be required to be open? i.e RM server on windows communicating over the firewall to unix Netbackup server with no mount host agent. Please advise?

    Thanks

    Hi Faz

    You can check my KB solution emc97336

    Replication Manager

    PORT Description Default #
    ===================================
    Server Control 65432
    Server Data 65431

    Client Control 6542
    Client Data 6543
    Client Data (if SSL enabled) 443

    RM Console 80


    Cheers
    James.

    Thanks James.

    One final question, the script on the mount host with the agent installed communicates with another Master backup server using a batch script, over a firewall, I guess we would require another TCP port to be opened for communication? I guess nothing to do with RM???

    Thanks
