NSR_LAYOUT(5)              Legato NetWorker 4.1.1              NSR_LAYOUT(5)


NAME
       NSR Layout - NetWorker file layout

DESCRIPTION
       The NetWorker server filesystem has a directory called /nsr that
       contains log files, on-line indexes, and configuration information.
       This directory can be created in any filesystem with /nsr set up as a
       symbolic link to the actual directory (this is determined at
       installation time).  The format of this directory is as follows:


       /nsr/logs
              Contains server logging messages.  The files in this directory
              are in ASCII format.

       /nsr/res
              Contains the configuration files for various components of the
              NetWorker server. For example, the server stores configuration
              files in /nsr/res/nsr.res and /nsr/res/nsrjb.res.

       /nsr/mm
              Contains the media index.  Information about the contents of
              this index file can be printed with the nsrls(8) command.  See
              the nsrmm(8) and mminfo(8) manual pages on how to view and
              manipulate the media index information.

       /nsr/index
              This directory contains subdirectories with names that
              correspond to the NetWorker clients that have saved files.
              Each index directory contains files that allow the NetWorker
              server to provide an on-line database of the client's saved
              files.  The most important file is the db file which contains
              the NetWorker save records and access indexes to those
              records.  This index file grows with the number of files saved
              by the NetWorker service.  Administrators should plan to use
              about 200 bytes per saved file instance placed in this index.
              An index may grow to a maximum of 1GB in size, with the first
              40KB allocated for internal use.

              The format of the db file is subject to change, and is
              accessible only through an RPC interface to nsrindexd(8).
              However, the command nsrls(8) can be used to obtain some
              useful statistics from this file.

              The existence of the db.SCAVENGE file indicates that the
              associated db file may need to be checked.  The nsrck(8)
              command is used for checking and rebuilding index files.
              While checking is taking place, the db.SCAVENGE file may
              contain the save records that will be used to rebuild db.  If
              the filesystem does not have enough free space to contain
              db.SCAVENGE, then the file will be a symbolic link to a
              temporary file in some other local filesystem.

              The file db.RECOVER is where nsrck ``rebuilds'' a fresh index.

              Upon completion this file is renamed to db.

       /nsr/cores
              Contains directories that correspond to the NetWorker server
              daemons and certain executables.  Each directory may contain
              core files from NetWorker server daemons or executables that
              have abnormally terminated.

       /nsr/drivers
              This directory may contains any device drivers for use with
              NetWorker.

       /nsr/tmp
              This directory contains temporary files used by the Networker
              system.

       The executables for the NetWorker system are usually installed in the
       directories /usr/etc or /usr/bin, though alternate locations may be
       chosen when the nsrize(8) installation script is run. Alternate
       locations are not available on SCO systems that install with
       custom(ADM).  See pkgadd(1M) for details on alternate executable
       locations for Solaris 2.x.

       When executables for more than one architecture are installed, the
       non-native architectures are by default put in the directory
       /export/exec/arch/etc, where arch refers to a given architecture
       name.  A different location to install non-native executables can be
       chosen at installation time.


FILES
       /nsr                NetWorker indexes, log files, and configuration
                           information.

       /usr/etc, /usr/bin  Where NetWorker executables for the native
                           architectures are normally installed.

       /export/exec/arch/etc
                           Where NetWorker executables for non-native
                           architectures are normally installed.

       /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /usr/lib/nsr
                           Where NetWorker executables for Solaris 2.x are
                           normally installed.
