Deal with the heart of NetBackup (a journey begin)

NetBackup uses ASA (Adaptive Sybase Anywhere) Database since version 6.0. It actually consolidates all the media, server, volumes information into a centralized place called EMM (Enteprise media manager) server.
It actually ease the administrator daily task and no longer required to maintain a whole list of media servers.

However, Symantec remains it as a myth to all the users that how it actually contains in the EMM database. Not even a document to show you this. I did look help from my different mother's brother (google) and he seems blur too. For every page that related to modify the EMM database, it will ask you to consult the symantec PS team (luckily it is dissolved). hahaha!

So.... first thing first. By understand this "unexplored" part, you must know how to open the door first.
Firstly you need to equip yourself with a weapon called "SQL anywhere". I sure your different mother's brother can help you much on this.
Secondly, go into your NetBackup Master server and look for a file called "server.conf". A parameter called "Local only" and set it to "NO". Then you already very near to enter this new world!!
