[Veritas-bu] Anyone know how to remove a host name from GUI loginscreen?

2008-01-25 Thread Abdelrahman, Karim
Bobby,
If this issue is not resolved, you can do the following:
1.  On the Gui highlight the (master server) name from the left column
and right click then select change server and
you will get a window.
2.  Select the server you want to delete and click remove (you may get
an error 25 could not connect the server).
 That will take care of it.

Regards,

-Karim A.

You have to set the Copy #2 (Pool B) Copy to the Primary Copy.

Investigate bpexpdate with the -npc switch.  Netbackup does not
automatically do this for you.  You might investigate taking out the
copy #2 instead of the copy #1 to make this sort of thing easier.
(Switch which copy writes where in your policy configuration.)

Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed

I recently added a Windows client to a stable Solaris NetBackup
installation. During the window for nightly incrementals, it's
performing the incrementals over and over, unlike all the other clients,
and I'm wondering how to get it not to do that.

Master: 6.0MP4 / Solaris 10 / SL500 with LTO3 drives Most clients are
6.0MP4 / Solaris 9 or 10.
Problem client: 6.0MP4 / Windows XP
Problem client is also listed as a SERVER in everyone's bp.conf so it
can run the admin console.

At first, a full backup was unable to complete in reasonable time, while
the client ground to a halt, so I had to disable open-file backups /
VSP.

Backup selection on the policy is ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES, but the exclude list
contains * and a couple of directories are in the include list
(C:\Documents and Settings and D:\something). The idea being that other
clients added to the policy in future could have different areas they
need backed up. No files are ever backed up from System_State:\ because
of the exclude list, but including part of it didn't change the behavior
either.

The schedule is frequency-based, every 1 days, with
1 month retention. Another schedule in the same policy does weekly full
backups. Have tried all combinations of Differential  Cumulative,
date-based  archive-bit-based, all producing repetitive incrementals
about every 14 minutes during the nightly start windows. Incrementals
usually finish in about 4 minutes, so I can only assume the master's
10-minute job retry delay is being added onto that. The master also has
Schedule backup attempts set to 2 tries per 12 hours. Have restarted
NBU on the master, no change.

Usually the job status on the parent job and all three streams (C:\,
D:\, and System_State:\) is status 0. Occasionally C:\ produces status 1
due to a Firefox lock file, etc.
There is also usually a warning on the C:\ backup, even when it returns
status 0:

   11/20/07 00:02:29 - Warning bpbrm(pid=21835) from client
PROBLEM_CLIENT: WRN - Removable Storage Management: unable to export
database (WIN32 21: The device is not ready. )

Could this warning be related to the repeated incrementals? I think we
can try disabling Removable Storage but don't know if that will break
anything else. The client has no direct access to tape drives but may
have a zip drive and legacy backups that need to work, independent of
NBU.

Other ideas appreciated.

The MPX setting of the original backup can greatly influence the speed
of your duplications.

I'm not *telling* you to use a high mpx but it is something to consider
testing.

 

It is very interesting to open up two ssh sessions, put them side by
side and run a truss on both the reading and writing bptm processes of
the media server while a duplication is running and then rotate your
screen 90 degrees to the right.



That illustrates the effect MPX has much better than I could describe in
words.

He was logged into the Master Server. The attempt was to restore a
single file to a client. The restore was to the same client, but it was
the issue over the 3rd TAB that I had a query over.

2 Accounts can see this tab, one being mine. If someone else logs on
with the same rights as myself, perform the same process, they do not
see the 3rd TAB that states Destination Clients.

Its not the end of the world, but it would be nice to know why I can see
it, another account can see it, yet no one else can.

And the account used was a Domain Admin account!

As a test, I logged into the machine with my account, launch the Admin
Console, chose Backup, Archive, Restore, selected FILE / Specify
NetBackup Machines  Policy Type and a small Window appears. The 3 tabs
I see are Servers, Source Clients / Policy Type and finally
Destination Clients.

Now, logging into the same master server, with a Domain Admin account,
perform the same steps as above, I get the same small window, however
the difference being is the present of just 2 tabs labelled Servers
and Clients / Policy Type. Thats it !

So ... I am just trying to work out why my 2 accounts show a
difference.
and I cannot quite understand why !

 I was going through logs and noticed I had a freeze incident where the

 label didn't match the barcode (oops!).  Sure enough I checked the 
 tape and I've got 25 on the barcode and 27 on the label...
 
 Before getting much farther, I'd like to do a (quick?) check of all 
 the volumes in library and check the RVSN against the barcode to see 
 if there are other problems that haven't been detected yet.  Is there 
 a command to query the RVSN?  I can mount the tape and wait for it to 
 appear in 'vmoprcmd' or read it directly with 'dd', but I figure 
 there's a NB command to return it directly.

Check out vmphyinv; I've used it to inventory large numbers of unknown
tapes.  Physically mounts and reads the tape, reporting on external and
internal labels, plus the type of info found (NetBackup data, NetBackup
catalog, other...).  Lots of options.  Lots.

Re: [Veritas-bu] vspcachefiles

2006-06-09 Thread Abdelrahman, Karim
Trevor,
Please read this for VSP issue.

-Karim A.

Here is a good write up of what is happening and how to fix the problem.

 
1. Large files named _vxfiVspCacheFile_?.tmp or .vsp appearing in the
root directory of clients, and cannot be deleted 


Details:

These files are the cache files used by VERITAS Snapshot Provider (VSP)
and are created as a normal part of a Windows client backup when VSP is
enabled. VSP will mount these cache files as a new hidden volume on the
client during the course of the backup so that file writes by other
processes on the client that should go to the partition being backed up
will be redirected to this cache file. At the end of the backup job, VSP
will flush the contents of the cache file to the live partition that was
backed up, will unmount the volume associated with the cache file, and
will then delete the cache file. 

The most likely cause for VSP to fail to delete these files after the
backup job is because some other process on the client machine is
accessing the mounted volume associated with this cache file. Anti-virus
software has been known to access this mounted volume during the course
of the backup and will prevent VSP from unmounting the volume.
Additionally, you will not be able to delete this file until the machine
has been rebooted (which will force the file to be unmounted). 

 
As a workaround to prevent this from happening in the future, try
configuring your anti-virus software on these Windows clients to ignore
all drives that are not normally present on the machine or to ignore all
file system activity by the NetBackup executables on the client machine
(bpbkar32.exe, bpfis.exe, SSM.exe). Alternatively, you can use the
bpstart_notify.cmd script on the client machine to stop the anti-virus
services on the client at the beginning of the backup job and use the
bpend_notify.cmd script on the client machine to restart the anti-virus
services on the client at the end of the backup job. 

 
2. This is the tool to manually remove the tmp files left over.
http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/procexp.shtml

Process Explorer Usage to remove the cache file:
1) Expand System Idle Process
2) Select and highlight System , you will notice in the bottom half of
the screen will populate with a list of all the processes that are
running under the System account.
3) Sort the Name Field by name and scroll down till you see the entries
that start with \Device\VSPSnapshot0\_vxfiVspCacheFile_1.tmp (depending
on the number of drives, you may find more then one mapping in the list
that use the same naming convention)
4) Highlight the first \Device\VSPSnapshot0\_vxfiVspCacheFile_1.tmp,
right click and select Close Handle
5) Next, highlight the associated system handle that physically shows
the drive letter association. Please note, in step 3 we chose
\Device\VSPSnapshot0, normally this should map to the first volume in
your backup selection C:\_vxfiVspCacheFile_1.tmp
** Note: You may find that once the Handle has been closed the system
may become unresponsive for a short time, this most likely is due to the
temp cache being released back to system.
6) Once you've selected the Close Handle option from the drop down menu,
you may then delete the associated TMP file which exist will exist on
the root of the drive in question

2.  cd /usr/openv/netbackup
3.  vi bp.conf
4.  add the folowing line:
FORCE_RESTORE_MEDIA_SERVER = old_media_server current_media

go to Master Server properties - Restore Failover and enter the old
Media
Server name and the name of the media server that should do the
rerstore.

Betreff: [Veritas-bu] HELP - Does things get any worse than this
:-((


Guys
I just CANNOT believe how unlucky this site is!!!
 
I attempted a restore from one of my Servers IP Addresses, that was
being
BACKED UP by the OLD Media Server that was destroyed.
 
Backup, Archive, Restore tool can SEE the Data, and I have specified the
source and destination client as being different (Destination now being
SERVER001) however when performing the restore it shows the following in
activity monitor
 
Activity Monitor shows
08/06/2006 06:43:48 - begin Restore
08/06/2006 06:43:51 - 1 images required
08/06/2006 06:43:51 - media 0234L3 required
08/06/2006 06:43:51 - media 0236L3 required
08/06/2006 06:44:26 - restored image 194.35.68.208_1148074371 - (cannot
connect to server backup restore manager(205))
08/06/2006 06:44:26 - end Restore; elapsed time: 00:00:38
the restore failed to recover the requested files(5)
 
I came in early to do this, as I feared something like this may happen
when
I was in bed last night!!
 
Im starting to lose faith in not only Veritas, but also the people
surrounding me!
 
Any help or quick answers would be appreciated. 

Regards
