RE: [Veritas-bu] Cancel a bpbackupdb - NBU 3.4 - Solaris - [Summary]
Thanks Tim, I believe I'll play a bit with the mmto :) Francisco -Original Message- From: Tim Hoke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 29, 2005 11:39 AM To: Francisco Puente Cc: veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Cancel a bpbackupdb - NBU 3.4 - Solaris - [Summary] yep, that's correct, 3.4 bpdbjobs won't show the catalog backups. however, I'm pretty sure vmoprcmd -d would have shown the pending request. Then you can also use vmoprcmd -deny # to deny the tape mount. Additionally, you may want to set the media mount timeout value so that if the catalog tape isn't available in the future, scheduled backups won't be held up too long. If you do choose to set the mmto value, don't set it to anything less than 30 minutes. I've seen too many times where < 30 minutes has caused problems for tapes which did take that long to mount (think DLT type media).

RE: [Veritas-bu] Cancel a bpbackupdb - NBU 3.4 - Solaris - [Summary]
Hi, I've ended up killing the bpbackupdb and bpdbm directly from the OS. Bpdbjobs didn't show the processes since they are catalog backups jobs. Thanks, Francisco -Original Message- From: Tim Hoke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 28, 2005 6:38 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Francisco Puente; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Cancel a bpbackupdb - NBU 3.4 - Solaris I'm not sure if this will apply in 3.4 or not, but since bptm appears to have requested the load of a tape, does a pending request for the tape show up? If so, deny the pending request and the job will terminate "nicely". Use vmoprcmd to check for and also deny the pending request.

[Veritas-bu] Cancel a bpbackupdb - NBU 3.4 - Solaris
Hi List, What is the _command line_ option, if any, to cancel/kill a job that is trying to use a non-existing tape for the DBBACKUP? # bpps -a NB Processes root 8716 8715 0 Dec 27 ?0:00 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpbackupdb -seq 1 root 8710 295 0 Dec 27 ?0:00 bpcd root 8816 5431 0 Dec 27 ?0:00 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpsched root 5431 1 0 Dec 27 ?0:00 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bprd root 5528 1 0 Dec 27 ?0:00 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpsched -mainempty root 5436 1 0 Dec 27 ?0:02 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpdbm root 8718 8716 0 Dec 27 ?0:00 bptm -load -ev TAPE214 -den 15 -sync -v TAPE214 is not longer in the robot, and the dbbackup is waiting for it I assume. I just changed the NBU configuration to use another media ID for the DBBACKUP, but I can't get rid of this process from the command line, I don't have GUI access. Any help will be very welcome!
