DESCRIPTION
Use the nbshvault command to perform NetBackup Sheltered Harbor solution data vaulting operations. Possible data vaulting operations include configuration, registration, backup, and restore operations. You can perform these operations in either interactive mode or non-interactive mode.
In interactive mode, you must specify the inputs manually on console. The data vaulting operations are performed using an interactive CLI process.
In non-interactive mode, the inputs are given in a JSON file. The JSON file name is passed as an argument to command line. The data vaulting operation goes into interactive mode if you do not specify the JSON file name in the command.
OPTIONS
- --attest
Use this option to attest the backup message with the provided institution ID or the keyword. If the institution ID or the keyword is not provided, attestation is done for the latest backup. If you have provided the config-dir option during configuration, use the config-dir option also to attest the backup message.
- -b | --backup
Reads the configuration that is provided in the given backup JSON file and backs up the data as per the Sheltered Harbor compliance specifications. If the file name is not provided, you must provide the inputs when prompted by the interactive CLI process. If you provided the config-dir option during configuration, you must use the config-dir option also to back up the data. Use the force option to continue the backup even if attestation for last backup failed.
- --config-dir config-dir-path

- --export-key
Use this option to copy the attestation message signing key from the NetBackup path to the specified path. If the institution ID and path are not provided you must provide the inputs as prompted by the interactive CLI process. If you provided the config-dir option during configuration, use the config-dir option to copy the signing key of the attestation message from the custom path to the specified path.
- --force
