Re: [Veritas-bu] Strange schedule problem
No joy im afraid :( I tried as below and also tried stopping all daemons, moving /usr/openv/netbackup/db/jobs/pempersist to a .old file and restarting services on the master. Still no joy. I copied the policy to a new one, deleted the old one and then copied the copy back to the policy of the same original name and no joy. I have created a new schedule within the policy and that has not ran. Also now when running nbpemreq -predict -date 07/19/2008 00:00:00 it doesn't show the policy in the list but shows all the others. Any more suggestions?

[Veritas-bu] Media and image expiration
Greetings, It looks like a problem with the tir_info files came up when the database filled up. To free up space I ran the report to show me images on media and then expired a bunch of the older incremental images. This freed up some space, but not much. It looks like I'm going to have to wipe out the tir_info files and run some new full backups. The media that were associated with these images have not expired and gone into the scratch pool. The reports show they have no images on them but they still show they don't expire until the regular expiration date. I know that I can bpexpdate them, but the problem is I didn't pay attention to the labels on the big batch that was run a few days ago. Is there a way to tell the database to expire tapes if they don't have any images on them if I don't know the barcode label. This is NB5.1 mp4 running on hpux 11.11.

http://www.auscert.org.au/render.html?it=9490 Has anyone encountered this bug and the documented workaround did not fix the problem? I've encountered a variety of problems that I can relate to this. 1. Sun Sparc system with fiber attached tape/robot, had the bad patches but not the workaround, and sg sees the tapes and robot just fine. The sg driver worked fine at version 6.5 and 6.5.2. 2. Same Sun Sparc system with scsi card added, workaround patches applied, and sg cannot see the robot on the scsi bus, only the drives. The robot and drives on the fiber card are still there and working just fine. 3. Sun x86 system with fiber attached tape, did not have the workaround, sg sees only the tape. After the workaround, sg sees the tape and robot and I could setup the devices. After 6.5.2 patch, sg does not see the robot any more. I've done the sg.build, and run sgscan a dozen times. Reconfigure boots, devfsadm, cfgadm, luxadm probe... it seems Solaris can see all the devices down either type of controller, but SG refuses to bind to the robot. On the Sparc system, I'm moving the library off of a working 6.5.2 Solaris 9 media server that is being decommissioned, so I know the library and drives are good. The x86 system is a new install. -Jon ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
