Re: [Veritas-bu] Problem during the Phase 1 part of a tape import
Your media ID generation rule needs to be 1:2:3:4:5:6 not what you had...

[Veritas-bu] NetBackup appliance hangs
Anyone out there using NetBackup dedupe appliances (5000, 5020) in a multiple node configuration having any problems where a content router node seems to just hang and require power-cycling? I have a NetBackup 5000 appliance at one location at version 1.4.1.1 that for some reason just hangs. It can be pinged, but console access is locked up, and ssh is similarly non-responsive. After the node is power-cycled, the storage pool comes back up and is happy until the next time. I've had this happen 3 times this year, but two of those instances have happened in the last 3 weeks. Anyone else seeing this behavior? Did 1.4.2 fix it? I'd prefer to wait until 1.4.3 or 1.4.4 to update due to our onerous change process, but who knows when they're going to be released. I'm going to reach out to Symantec support too. -- Jack Forester, Jr. Senior Data Protection Analyst Symantec Certified Specialist - NetBackup 7.0 for UNIX Administration Global Technology Services Mylan 781 Chestnut Ridge Road Morgantown, WV 26505 (Embedded image moved to file: pic17522.jpg) attachment: pic17522.jpg___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu

I had seen exactly that behavior from a pair of 5000s we put in back in February. One of them got a RAID controller replaced, there were a couple of EEB-type patches applied, all of which seemed to help, but the frequency of the hangs wasn't often enough to really say there was a statistically-significant improvement. Did 1.4.2 fix it? We did end up at 1.4.2, and have not had a problem since, and it's been long enough now that I consider the issue resolved. - Bluejay Adametz, CFII, AP, AA-5B N45210 Security is mostly a superstition.

Re: [Veritas-bu] NetBackup appliance hangs
If you're going to 1.4.3, check with Symantec on this first. Otherwise, if you want to go 1.4.2, make sure you get any other EEBs that go along with it. There is a RAID controller patch that is pretty important and I can't remember if it's in 1.4.2 or not.
