On all errors, if NetBackup didn't freeze the tape, I do! Notes are written to a "blog". Even if a problem appears to be a drive, the tape is set to frozen (if assigned) or directly changed to another pool (see below). Periodically, I look at the "Media Summary" report (verbose). If there are expired, frozen tapes reported, I expire them with bpexpdate and change them to a pool for just such tapes (I call it the Baudelaire volume pool). When my tape drives have time, I do a short erase and then long erase. If both go OK, the tape gets put back into service. With a pattern of problems, the tape is returned to our media vendor. However, we have more trouble with our LTO-I drives than media.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Server Backup Times - Scheduling Issues
Title: Message Garrett I would have thought the reports module (Client backup report) can give you a clearer picture as to when the backups for a particular client or clients started to get backed up. BPPLLIST is a good command tool, that will list all policies, and you can extract the clients in the policy and the backup windows that start and close. I think the parameter is -allpolicies Remember, if your resources are busy, the Start times may not be applicable, because the job may queue for an hour or so until a device becomes free. With this info, plus the reports, you should be able to scramble some details for your customer - maybe import it into a spreadsheet or graph?

If that's what your support rep is telling you, talk to a manager and have your case re-assigned to somebody with a clue. There are MAJOR fixes to the scheduler that are available to some customers who are experiences problems. We've put up about a dozen new versions nbpem *after* MP3 and I'm not the only one. The scheduler is still broken today and will not schedule jobs it's supposed to schedule, runs jobs under a job id of a failed job, and lots of other fun stuff. Another customer had major core dumps with the MP3 scheduler (last I heard, they were fixed). We still have a dozen or so open cases with Symantec that have been escalated to Engineering. NBU 6.0 MP3 is still to be avoided for customers still running a 5.x release. .../Ed -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu

[Veritas-bu] Multiple RMAN Backups
I'm having a strange issue where an RMAN / Oracle backup is configured to run once, but it runs 2 or 3 times, even when running a manual backup. Its causing me to exceed my backup windows. I'm running NBU 5.1 MP4 on Windows 2003. The issue occurs whether the backup is scheduled to run during a certain open window or if I kick off a manual backup.

I'm attempting to install NOM on a Netbackup 6.0 (not
updated, no MP1, MP2, or MP3) Master Server on Solaris 10. They are on the
same release and MP level. During the NOM install, it freezes during the
NOM pkgadd portion basically. It dies at this part:
NOM_dbsrv Installation completed
successfully
Starting VERITAS NOM SERVER NOM

is not yet configured. Now Executing the following config:
cd /opt/VRTSamnom

9.0;ENG=VERITAS_NOM_hostname;DBN=vxam;links=tcpip{host=localhost;port=13729}"
"-g /opt/VRTSnom/config/vxam.conf"
My process of install has been:
Install PBX
Install Netbackup 6.0 Master Server
Install VRTSat
run the NOM install, it installs VRTSjre, VRTSweb,
VRTSamnom
Trying to re-install, it detects that the following are
installed, and that a partial installation of VRTS not has been detected and
will be removed
Following are already installed:
VRTSamnom:
4.02.0243
VRTSicsco:

VRTSjre1.4
VRTSpbx:
1.2.2.41
VRTSweb:
4.2
VRTSat:
4.2.2.21
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Did anyone do
anything different during their install process above than what I
did?

[Veritas-bu] Server Backup Times - Scheduling Issues
I am looking for a script to help me with some scheduling issues/questions down to the client level. I was given a list of 600+ servers that I need to reply with the backup time(s) for each. Does anyone have a script (using bppllist?) that might help me list the backup time for a client or list of clients based on the schedule name (ours are named:daily/weekly/monthly/yearly) or type of backup (full/incremental)? In a separate but related issue, it would be helpful to have similar scheduling information about each of my policies’ backup times for each of the schedule within each policy….

[Veritas-bu] NB 6.0 MP3 EMM Server Dies After 1-3 Days?
Does this happen to anyone else? Running RHEL3 and after 24..48..72 hours or so, the nbemm process DIES and backups continue but the nbemm process is dead, so ie you cannot look at the volume pools, you cannot tpconfig -d to look at tape drives. If the nbemm server is dead, I don't know how its cataloging what it backs up either! The only way to fix is to bp.kill_all and then restart the backup processes. Has anyone else seen this problem?

[Veritas-bu] Scheduler woes with Ver 6.0 + MP3
Hi Wondering whether anyone on this forum has seen this behavior. Environment: Solaris 8 shop. Master and Media on the same server running Netbackup Ver 6.0 + MP3. This is a fresh 6.0 install. Adic scalar 24 attached to the Master server. Backups run fine for few days and than the scheduler just stops working. The scheduler can be made to work only by stopping and starting Netbackup. Some features seen in the process are. 1. Typically the scheduler stops working when the backup on one of the clients has failed with a status code. From the status code one can figure out why the client failed. But I cannot find the reason as to why the scheduler just stops working when such a incident occurs. I think in the normal scheme of things if a backup on a client fails than the software should just put the Status error code and move on to the other scheduled policies and perform the backups for those policies. But that is not happening. Once the backup of a client has failed no other policies scheduled after that runs. 2. Once the above mentioned situation happens. If I try to run "/etc/init.d/netbackup" or bp.kill_all to stop Netbackup. It cannot stop the Policy Execution Manager, it just hangs while trying to stop that. No choice but to CTRL C out and than use kill -9 to kill all nbpem processes. Once those are killed and I run /etc/init.d/netbackup stop or bp.kill_all it stops all the remaining processes and comes back to the prompt. Somehow my nbpem process is getting hosed/or hung . I am working with Support on this and provided them the requested logs. Not heard back from them and hence wondering if anyone has seen anything like this, as I know Ver 6.0 has lot of issues with Scheduler but was told by support that all necessary patches for scheduler are included in MP3. Any suggestions. Thanks Sandeep ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
Re: [Veritas-bu] Checking media
I watch my logs and the "errors" file to promptly see what happened when NetBackup "sees" a tape error. On all errors, if NetBackup didn't freeze the tape, I do! Notes are written to a "blog". Even if a problem appears to be a drive, the tape is set to frozen (if assigned) or directly changed to another pool (see below). Periodically, I look at the "Media Summary" report (verbose). If there are expired, frozen tapes reported, I expire them with bpexpdate and change them to a pool for just such tapes (I call it the Baudelaire volume pool). When my tape drives have time, I do a short erase and then long erase. If both go OK, the tape gets put back into service. With a pattern of problems, the tape is returned to our media vendor. However, we have more trouble with our LTO-I drives than media. Is this the sort of thing that interests you? cheers, wayne Clooney, David wrote, in part, on 7/25/2006 10:52 AM: Just a quick one, have a whole bunch of frozen tapes, now I'm pretty convinced that most of them are indeed fine , whats the best way to confirm this ?

Re: [Veritas-bu] Master server moving
Title: Message Best thing to do is this (depending on your NBU OS / Hardware) 1) Note down all TCP/IP configurations on your Master 2) Ensure you have a GOOD Valid Catalog Backup of your Master 3) If possible, make an image of your Server OS (Optional) 4) Finally, ensure all clients can communicate with the Master Server using Server Name As long as your Name Resolution is working, and Netbackup can communicate with the clients after the move, you should be ok. I would personally take the catalog backup out of the robot, just in case ! The DR recovery documentation is very good and well worth a read!
