[Veritas-bu] New media server showing "Active for Disk" not "Active for Tape and Disk"
All: I'm currently running NetBackup 7.6.0.1 on Redhat Linux. I am trying to move one of my media servers to a different host. I want to get everything in place on the new server, point all my policies to the new server then remove everything from the original media server. I've installed the NBU media server software on the new server and all the drives are set up and visible on the it. After I run the "Configure Storage Devices" everything looks ok with the following exceptions: On the page that shows the "Backup Devices:" all the tape drives on the new media server have "Yes, see properties" under the Limitations column. Every other drive has "None" in this column. I checked the Properties and don't see any difference between any that have "Yes, see properties" and "None". Continuing with the Wizard, all is normal until it tries to restart the Media Manager device daemon on the new media server. Instead of a check mark by it there is what looks like a disk icon with a yellow triangle on it. After the Configure Storage Devices wizard completes, and I click on "Media Servers" the new media server's Status is "Active for Disk" and not "Active for Tape and Disk". I've tried running the nbemmcmd to set_tape_active for the media server. After running the command, the media server shows up as "Active for Tape and Disk" but when I go through the "Configure Storage Devices" wizard, it goes back to "Active for Disk". Anyone have any idea what I need to do to get this media server to recognize the tapes attached to it?

Re: [Veritas-bu] New Media Server and restore client issue
Can you please specify which version of netbackup is on master and all media servers. Would suggest try restarting the services on master and the media servers before troubleshooting further because these kind of peculiar problems get resolved after that On Wed, Jul 13, 2011 at 12:04 PM, wrote: > Hallo , > > I have an existant Master/Media and a separate media in one domain.

[Veritas-bu] New Media Server and restore client issue
Hallo , I have an existant Master/Media and a separate media in one domain. Now I added 3 new media servers systems. It seems ok , I see in the Host properties->media Server : OS , version , connected I did not restart the master server , only a rereadconfig. And in the Media And Device Management -> Devices ->Media Servers , I see those as active for disk (nor for tape because I am using a disk solution as replacement for the tape/library) And the version. Now one of clients cannot restore from this standard media server , like before the installation of the new media. The restore process takes the new one instead, and it not works. We don't want that it takes the new one actually. We don't have a backup of this client via this media. The bp.conf of this client has entries of all new media servers , as well the actual. We disabled the new media servers to be able to make the restore We tried the FORCE_RESTORE_MEDIA_SERVER in the Master server , but witouht success. I already read a post about a similar issue , but that was not really solved .. Or to restrict media servers entries in the client bp.conf Thank you very much.

Re: [Veritas-bu] New Media Server
When tapes are added, NBU puts them in different Volume Groups and there is always a different volume group for a different library. You just need to configure one scratch pool and make sure you put enogh tapes in it from each robot.

You can have one scratch pool and still have scratch tapes in different robots and the different robots still be able to access them as the system knows what tapes are in what robot and which are scratch.

I'm assuming if the master/media runs out of scratch tape within the local robot then it will request a scratch tape from the remote site. We have seen this with a local standalone drive that did not have tapes left in its assigned pool. At that time the backup requested a scratch tape that we normally keep for on the local robot use.

Re: [Veritas-bu] New Media Server
Regarding creating another scratch pool. In most master/media server cases , the master/media server acts as the volume database host as well and all media servers in that environment then query info from the master/media server , namely the below two files on the master. /install path/openv/volmgr/database/poolDB /install path/openv/volmgr/database/volDB So in other words if you are trying to create another scratch pool on a media server that is using the master/media server as the volume database host it is in actual fact trying to add another scratch pool to /install path/openv/volmgr/database/poolDB on the master/media server and will hence fail as you already have one. You could try specifying the new media server to be its own volume database host using tpconfig and in turn should use its own /install path/openv/volmgr/database/poolDB /install path/openv/volmgr/database/volDB Then you should be able to create your new scratch pool, you most certainly would have to name your second scratch pool different to your existing scratch pool name. Hope it helps, let us know the outcome.

Re: [Veritas-bu] New Media Server
Create a Storage Group for that site's robot and drives and make sure you point all that site's backups to that storage group so you don't run backups across the wan. Similarly you want to make sure your local policies don't use "Any" or they might write out there! Also, you don't need another scratch pool, your media out there will go into the same scratch pool just show a different robot #2 etc. If you want a completely different scratch pool etc than you have to make that server a Master, and manage that Netbackup Domain separately. I don't do this exactly, but I do manage different robots on different servers, and as far as volume pools go you just use the ones you already have. -Jonathan -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Deiter Scott Sent: Thursday, December 07, 2006 8:12 AM To: Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] New Media Server We have installed a new media server with a two drive robot at a remote site to replace two stand alone drives and the old media server.

[Veritas-bu] New Media Server
We have installed a new media server with a two drive robot at a remote site to replace two stand alone drives and the old media server. We want to setup 4 volume pools including a scratch pool at the remote site. It appears that these pools must be defined at the new media server as I have not been able to create another scratch pool in our existing master/media. Current version is 5.1 mp4 The master/media is solaris The new media server is solaris The remote site has window clients. I'm wondering what else to look for when creating this new setup.
