Simon is correct. The software is on
the Windows CD and the binary is automatically installed. The license key,
when added to the Master server, will unlock the function and the Exchange
policy can be configured.

Can you clarify something? In the Exchange Admin Guide for the
install, it talks about installing the client, but is there a REQUIREMENT to
install EXCHANGE 2003 FIRSt before installing the NetBackup
client?

[Veritas-bu] Using NetBackup directly with tape drive

2006-09-14 Thread J K
Hi,  I just joined the list so I'm a newcomer, both in the list and in
the NetBackup world in general.
I've all of a sudden taken over the management of a Windows server having
NetBackup ver 4.5 installed. There's a tape drive in the machine.

Now, the server pointed to have been shut down since a long time ago and
noone has been taking care of making backups since then. Someone said that
he was sure it was possible to make a backup to the tape drive in the
machine using NetBackup. But, from what I've understood, you can't do
anything unless there's a NetBackup server somewhere that, in turn,
connects to the tape drive. Is this true?

Kind regards,
Johan Kullberg

[Veritas-bu] Exchange Win2k3 Cluster

2006-09-14 Thread WEAVER, Simon
Title: Message



Guys
Clarification on what I would like to do and be sure your are all 
happy with this.

1 
x NBU 5.1 MP2 Server and 2 x SAN Media Servers, all on 
win2k3

Will be adding 2 SAN Media Servers, using SSO and in a cluster (2 
node cluster).

These will also be running Exchange 2003. Virtual Name will be 
given for the Exchange Server, hence also allowing us to backup the 
Databases.

Question: could I install the PC Client for Windows on the C:\ 
drive of the physical nodes, but perform the exchange online backups using the 
virtual server name?

I 
am pretty sure this is what was done before in a 2 node cluster, but wanted to 
be sure I was not overlooking anything!

Also, can anyone clarify this - if I want to backup Exchange, I 
need a license key. Do I need a license key for EACH Exchange Server, or does it 
cover ALL Exchange Servers in the business.

Thank you

Re: [Veritas-bu] Using NetBackup directly with tape drive

2006-09-14 Thread WEAVER, Simon

In order for NetBackup to backup clients, it needs to know of a Tape Drive,
or better, a Robotic Library.

A Tape drive needs to be connected to the Netbackup Server, at least so it
can detect it.

So are you saying you have had no backups running at all ? I was confused
about the statement that the server pointed to has been shut down.

Thanks

True, no backups made for more than one year. It's a non-commercial computer

I am sure Unix must have some sort of other functionaility for doing backups

NetBackup has 3 major components - a master server (which holds the 
catalog), a media server (which writes to backup storage units like disk 
or tape), and clients.  All 3 are required although they can all be on 
the same system.

If you do not have a master server, then you're probably not going to 
want to install it just to back up one client - you'd be far cheaper off 
going with some like BackupExec.  If you do have a master server, you 
could make your client a media server so that it can drive the tape 
drive.  Those licenses aren't cheap either and you don't typically make 
a server a media server unless it's writing data to tape for multiple 
clients.  A SAN media server license is cheaper and is typically used to 
backup just yourself directly to a tape drive.  Again, you need to 
review the price of it versus another product completely especially for 
a small computer club.

All that said, NetBackup 4.5 is old.  You should upgrade to the latest 
maintenance pak in the 5.1 version.

UNIX/Linux have multiple utilities such as tar and cpio.  (In fact NetBackup
actually does its backups using a modified version of GNU
tar.) 

If this is a single server with a single tape drive it does seem using
NetBackup is overkill especially given the cost.

 Can you clarify something? In the Exchange Admin Guide for 
 the install, it talks about installing the client, but is 
 there a REQUIREMENT to install EXCHANGE 2003 FIRSt before 
 installing the NetBackup client?
  
 Thanks

   Simon is correct.  The software is on the Windows CD 
 and the binary is automatically installed.  The license key, 
 when added to the Master server, will unlock the function and 
 the Exchange policy can be configured.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Using NetBackup directly with tape drive

2006-09-14 Thread Jeff Lightner
Are you backing up the UNIX machines with NetBackup?  If so perhaps
that's your master and you just need to setup a client backup policy for
the Windows server.

Ok no problem - its just that maybe NetBackup is a bit OVER the TOP for

Offering ntbackup would have been a cheaper (free) option :-)

 Actually, to add to Ed's comments, if this is a basic box, small 
 environment and windows, use NTBackup :-)
 Its FREE, part of the OS!

I tried NTBackup first, before I noticed Veritas was installed. What I
need
to do is to quickly make a backup of the disks since, as I mentioned, we
don't have any right now. NTBackup turned out to require some
bureaucracy
around media pools and stuff, and I just want to get the stuff over to
the
tape with as little admin as possible.


 I am sure Unix must have some sort of other functionaility for doing 
 backups
 - might be another option to consider :-)

We already have Unix and Linux machines - and they're even being
backuped...

Re: [Veritas-bu] Client is not validated to use this server

2006-09-14 Thread Justin Piszcz
What does it say in the logs?

You have a SERVER = your_windows_server in your bp.conf on the master 
right?

You can ping your_windows_server, right?

It should also have a forward / reverse DNS entry if you are using DNS, 
otherwise, the appropriate entry in each OS' hosts file.

[Veritas-bu] Cleaning Quandary

2006-09-14 Thread Brooks, Jason
Setup:

1 NBU 6.0MP3 + eng binaries master, 1 NBU 6.0MP3 media
Scalar i2K with 2 LTO3s, both shared to both servers

I came in this morning and found that the cleaning flag was set by my
ADIC on one of the drives.  I have 5 cleaning tapes in the library, and
NBU knows them to live in the NONE pool with a media type of HC3_CLN.
When I tried to clean now, NBU responded with an error that request
terminated, media not available (291).  The Activity Monitor gave this:

9/14/2006 9:01:06 AM - requesting resource Tape1:__ANY__
9/14/2006 9:01:14 AM - Error nbjm(pid=800) NBU status: 96, EMM status:
No media is available
9/14/2006 9:01:14 AM - end operation
unable to allocate new media for backup, storage unit has none
available(96)

I've opened a ticket with support, but nothing heard yet.  I'm 1.5 hours
from my scheduled disk staging relocation.  Anyone seen this one before?
Ideas or suggestions?

Thanks,
Jason

I'm running 6.0MP3 backing up an Exchange 2K3 server.  I don't recall that
necessarily being a prereq and my docs aren't that clear either. That said,
the Exchange Server was already up and running when we installed NBU on it.

[Veritas-bu] Media server migration

2006-09-14 Thread Clooney, David



All

I am undertaking the 
task of migrating a windows media server and want to give the basic outline just 
in case I have missed anything.

Just to add the new 
media server will be performing the exact same task as the old media server , 
windows 2000 to windows 2003

1. zone drives so 
new media server has visibility 
2. reboot new media 
server 
3. configure drives 
on new media server
4. Add device host 
and configure new drives on the master
5. Update 
SSO
6. Create 
STU's
7. List all media 
associated with old media server and move to standalone then apply the below on 
the same media
 
bpmedia -movedb -m media_id -newserver hostname [-oldserver 
hostname]
8. Inventory new 
media
9. Change all 
policies using old media server stu's to reflect new
10. 
To 
avoid FORCE_RESTORE_MEDIA_SERVER being implemented 
on the old media server , get a list of all backupid's associated with old 
media server and apply the below to all
 
bpimage: -newserver name [-oldserver name] [-id 
id]
11. Decomission old 
media server when ready

Q
1. The new media 
server can currently see two test drives in the same library as what the 
production drives are in , all drives are stk 9940A and B's , all media servers 
using the same ACSLS host for robotic 
control. Upon zoning in the new 
drives and rebooting the new media server , should it be as straight forward as 
running C:\program files\veritas\volmgr\bin\scan to get all the new drive info 
or is there more that 
needs to be done for visibility 
of the new drives ?

Regards 


David

Edwin,

If you have Aptare Storage console
it has a report run via an SQL command that provides this information
and sends it out via e-mail.
the report can be tailored to get the

Re: [Veritas-bu] Cleaning Quandary

2006-09-14 Thread Bobby Williams
Your barcodes don't have to have CLN in them.

You do, however, have to have them defined as Cleaning tapes and of the correct 
type as the drives.  But it looks like you have that (pending that your drives 
are hcart3).

I would wonder why you would share the drives between a master and a media 
server.  You probably are wasting money on either an SSO license or the media 
server license.  With only 2 drives in an i2K, you are running on overkill 
anyway.  But then I don't know anything about your environment.

SSO and cleaning tapes were an issue in the 4.5MP6 days, but when I upgraded to 
5.1, I did away with SSO.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Backup Shadow Copy Components:\

2006-09-14 Thread Andrew Stueve
Had a similar issue with a MsSQL cluster.

Try a ntbackup of something on the system (like SystemShadowCopy).  If
ntbackup works, then open a case with Veritas.  if ntbackup fails to
backup, then open the case with MS.

In our case, ntbackup was failing, and MS had to do some registry edits.

 We get error 13 while backing up the FS on the server, the backup does not

 that the SQL backups are working notrmally.
 
 Any suggestions know fixes!

Correct.  Else Libraries without barcode readers could not use cleaning
tapes.
Run the command   ..\Volmgr\bin\vmquery -m tape_ID
That will tell you the type, pool, and the robot number / slot number

If there is no robot number / slot number then that is the problem.

Re: [Veritas-bu] problems with VTL StorageTek solution ?

2006-09-14 Thread Hampus Lind
Hehe... Cool article.. But I don't know how much of it that’s true... I am
talking to both SUN and HDS for the moment and none of them has mentioned
this. I will ask them about it.

I have also heard that VSM open will be killed and that SUN will go with
Falconstor instead. 
But regarding to my sells guy at SUN, they sells people haven’t got the word
that they will kill VSM open, so they speculate in that it will come later
on instead. I don’t know what to believe for now.. 
I know Diligent is on the market, while falconstor and VSM open aren’t. So
if you want de-dup function today, you have to look at diligent or perhaps
data domain, but that’s a different story.

However, I have looked at both diligent and falconstor, and for now I think
I would go with diligent.. What do you guys think??

 Correct.  Else Libraries without barcode readers could not

 Run the command   ..\Volmgr\bin\vmquery -m tape_ID
 That will tell you the type, pool, and the robot number / slot number
 
 If there is no robot number / slot number then that is the problem.

 Your barcodes don't have to have CLN in them.
 
 You do, however, have to have them defined as Cleaning tapes 
 and of the correct type as the drives.  But it looks like you 
 have that (pending that your drives are hcart3).
 
 I would wonder why you would share the drives between a

 either an SSO license or the media server license.  With only 
 2 drives in an i2K, you are running on overkill anyway.  But

[Veritas-bu] avrd a CPU hog

2006-09-14 Thread Darren Dunham
My avrd has decided to start doing work.  On an otherwise idle 4
processor machine, it's taking betwene 6 and 14 percent of the CPU.

Trussing it, it's just doing what appears to be name lookups over and
over and over

open(/etc/hosts, O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE)= 5
fcntl(5, F_DUPFD, 0x0100)   Err#22 EINVAL
read(5,  #n #   I n t e r n e t.., 1024) = 1024

door_info(5, 0xFEEC2748)Err#9 EBADF
close(5)= 0
open(/etc/hosts, O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE)= 5
[...]

I don't know what it's looking for or why.  I've got VERBOSE in
vm.conf, I've touched /usr/openv/volmgr/AVRD_DEBUG and I've
restarted.  The only messages I can find for avrd are in the system
messages file, and they're pretty normal connects to a library and
the two drives inside the library.

Things *seem* to be functioning, but I'm concerned that it's taking
up so much CPU.  That's not normal.  Anyone seen something like this?

Hi folks,

I'm running NetBackup 5.1 MP4 under Win2003.  Has anyone found a way to
automate suspending active jobs prior to a catalog backup running, and
restart it after the catalog completes?  We're not ready to jump on 6.0 yet
just for hot catalog backups.  Any help is much appreciated.

2006-09-14 Thread Mark.Donaldson
Title: Backup through firewalls



There's a whole section on this in the 
SAG.

Shortanswer, you need "bpcd" from the master or media 
server to the client, "vnetd" the reverse direction. You have to make sure 
you configure the client for "no callback connections" via the bpclient command 
or, no doubt, someplace in the GUI.

Users on the client cannot perform their own restores using 
this. I'm told, but have not verified, that you can enable "bprd" from 
client to master to allow this.

Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP Vault

2006-09-14 Thread Paul Keating
Use Vault or bpduplicate.

Vault will require your dupe to a different volume pool, bpduplicate
will not, but otherwise, not much diff.

NDMP has it's own DTU, but isn't a media server in the sense you're
thinking, because it doesn't track its own backups...you can dupe to any
target storage unit attached to the media server doing the dupe.

F'rinstance, I have 3 STUs...one for the NetApp, A, then two for a Media
serverone for local drives, B, and one for my DR site drives, C.

The NDMP backup runs to STU A, but when I do the Vault/bpduplicate, the
tape duped using drives assigned to the media server Mounted/read
from one assigned to STU B, and written to the offsite STU C.

No SSO needed.

 Continuing on my NDMP requirements thread, what is the proper way to 
 duplicate (Vault) NDMP backups?  Currently my Vault is configured to 
 use the existing STU which does have a max fragment size.  I seem to 
 recall that you can't duplicate across media servers.  It 
 looks like the 
 NDMP drive is going to be attached to the NetApp (via SAN zone).  I'm 
 assuming the NetApp with its local tape drive will be 
 considered a media 
 server for this purpose.
 
 Will I need two drives attached to the NetApp so I can make 
 duplicates 
 for vault?  I intend to have all my drives (even NDMP) 
 physically in one 
 robot with robot control on the (linux) master.  Will any of this 
 require an SSO license?

Re: [Veritas-bu] FW: Link To Download Exchange DB Extension -UP DATE

2006-09-14 Thread Paul Keating
From what I can tell, though I haven't gotten too deep into is, is that
the Netbackup for Exchange client is essentially just a Netbackup for
Windows client.Exchange installed on the host is what makes it an
Exchange client.

So basically, it's just a windows server with Netbackup on it.
You need to configure some stuff (accounts) on the Exchange server to
make it talk properly to the installed Netbackup client...then you back
it up pretty much the same as a windows box, ie, backup C, D, and
whatever other drives you have on each physical box, via each individual
host's node name, then you backup the Exchange DBs by the virtual name
of the cluster.

So you can't do a DR of the Exchange app, by installing the windows
client on a windows box, then doing a FULL restore to it. You need an
exchange server running to accept the restore data, as the restore will
talk to the exchange API.so Exchange has to be installed AND
running.

I believe, but am not sure if you can install the NBU client first on
the bare box, then install Exchange, but I *THINK* you can.

You need an Exchange license for every instance of exchange you intend
ot backup or restore to.

ie. We have a production cluster, a restore instance on a different
box, an instance in the lab, and one at our DR site that we will restore
to in a DR, so we need 4 licences.

Paul

  Can you clarify something? In the Exchange Admin Guide for 
  the install, it talks about installing the client, but is 
  there a REQUIREMENT to install EXCHANGE 2003 FIRSt before 
  installing the NetBackup client?

or is it more straightforward? It turned out that we have a license
for an older version for BackupExec, it's just that it's probably
not installed. As I've mentioned, we have just one Windows server with a
tape drive in it.

Best regards,
Johan Kullberg

Re: [Veritas-bu] FW: Link To Download Exchange DB Extension -UP DATE

2006-09-14 Thread Martin, Jonathan \(Contractor\)
 
Just a note on licensing, if you are running the exchange DB agent in a
cluster it is licensed per active node, although you need a client for
each node.  So... A cluster with 2 nodes and 1 active requires 2
Netbackup Protect (Client) Licenses but only 1 Exchange Database Option
license.

At least that's how we're spending our money w/ Symantec. =P

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] FW: Link To Download Exchange DB Extension -UP

From what I can tell, though I haven't gotten too deep into is, is that
the Netbackup for Exchange client is essentially just a Netbackup for
Windows client.Exchange installed on the host is what makes it an
Exchange client.

So basically, it's just a windows server with Netbackup on it.
You need to configure some stuff (accounts) on the Exchange server to
make it talk properly to the installed Netbackup client...then you back
it up pretty much the same as a windows box, ie, backup C, D, and
whatever other drives you have on each physical box, via each individual
host's node name, then you backup the Exchange DBs by the virtual name
of the cluster.

So you can't do a DR of the Exchange app, by installing the windows
client on a windows box, then doing a FULL restore to it. You need an
exchange server running to accept the restore data, as the restore will
talk to the exchange API.so Exchange has to be installed AND
running.

I believe, but am not sure if you can install the NBU client first on
the bare box, then install Exchange, but I *THINK* you can.

You need an Exchange license for every instance of exchange you intend
ot backup or restore to.

ie. We have a production cluster, a restore instance on a different
box, an instance in the lab, and one at our DR site that we will restore
to in a DR, so we need 4 licences.

Paul

  Can you clarify something? In the Exchange Admin Guide for the 
  install, it talks about installing the client, but is there a 
  REQUIREMENT to install EXCHANGE 2003 FIRSt before installing the 
  NetBackup client?

Re: [Veritas-bu] Backup through firewalls

2006-09-14 Thread David Rock
* [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2006-09-14 13:48]:
 There's a whole section on this in the SAG.
  
 Shortanswer, you need bpcd from the master or media server to the
 client, vnetd the reverse direction.  You have to make sure you
 configure the client for no callback connections via the bpclient
 command or, no doubt, someplace in the GUI.
  
 Users on the client cannot perform their own restores using this.  I'm
 told, but have not verified, that you can enable bprd from client to
 master to allow this.

Speaking as a backup guy who is now on the firewall team, using vnetd is
by far the recommended way of dealing with the firewall.  If all you are
dealing with is backup servers to client machine, the short list is:

Server - Client   port 13782 (bpcd)
Client - Server   ports 13724 (vnetd) and 13720 (bprd)

Yes client initiated restores will work with just these ports.  If your
backup servers are hanging off of a DMZ so that your admin clients using
the Java GUI need to get access, you can also use:

Admin Client - Server ports 13722 (bpjava) and 13724 (vnetd)

 This will also require the /usr/openv/java/nbj.conf file setting of
 NBJAVA_CONNECT_OPTION=1 (default is 0)

The only downside to vnetd that I have heard of but not seen personally
is that you are limited to a single stream for backups, which could
impact your backup model if you are trying to use NEW_STREAM file
directives.  If that is the case, you can configure port ranges and I
highly recommend using ALLOW_NON_RESERVED_PORTS as part of that.  Using
low ports (1024) by default is one of the stupidest things NBU ever did.

Hi,
I've configured some firewaled NetBackup domains with vnetd and I never had any 
problem with streams. 

I have ages to hear from someone the port model. I had proposed this to some of 
my customers and when the firewall admin understood how many ports needed they 
refused it immediately.

Title: Message



Well here, just tried on one client, and its reporting 
back the files its skipped.

Also went to BPERROR from a command line, and that provided a much 
more in-depth look at the errors for a client.

You could also try this perhaps.

  Actually, that is not always the case, because the Report tool

In the windows GUI if you click on the job and go to 
the details its in that log there. Alternately I think its in the 
BPKAR32 log? I'm not 100% sure because I always use the Windows GUI 
(its a lot easier than parsing log files.)

Gents,


Several

code is 1.

Is there a way 
to retrieve this info?

Mike
May want to take a look at this.

http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/274213.htm

Also, from memory, I created a specific volume pool called NBU_SAFE - by
default, if the tape HAS expired and you place into the robot you may find
its in the Netbackup or Scratch pool. Check this location, and where
applicable place it in a safe pool, or if possible, the original pool it may
have come from. Assuming you know :-)
