Re: [Veritas-bu] MS-Windows Synthetic problem with MSCS

2010-01-21 Thread David Stanaway
Answering my own question,
This was resolved by turning off multistreaming for this policy. With
multistreaming, a separate stream was spawned for each drive, even if
the drive was filtered out and gave errors with the synthetic.

This problem did not occur when the policy was set to not use
multistreaming. Kudos to NBU support for solving this one.

 Okay,

 so I have a problem with backing up MSCS clusters with ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES

 The cluster nodes not holding the volume attempt to backup the volumes
 and fail. This was easy enough to fix with policy specific client
 exclusions, and these exclusions for the clustered volumes get skipped
 correctly when backing up with Full, or Differential-Incremental
 schedules, and images for those volumes don't get created.

 The Synthetic Full schedule however errors out with the cluster volumes
 with an exist status 671.

 Is there something I am missing? The client exclusions are set up right
 as they work for the other schedule types. Do the synthetics ignore the
 exclusion lists since they are not touching the client system?

 In Legato, the ALL backup selection skips volumes that are associated
 with an MSCS cluster. Is there a policy specific way I can do the same
 thing?
