[Veritas-bu] bpstart timeout not honoured

2008-08-28 Thread Dave Markham
Guys i have a bpstart script on a client which initiates an RMAN backup
(i just emailed about it 2 mins ago for a different reason).

As the RMAN backup takes some time i have put the following into bp.conf
on the client that initiates the bpstart

CLIENT_READ_TIMEOUT = 24000
BPSTART_TIMEOUT = 2400

After some investigation it seems a job has exited with status 74 after
11000 seconds saying bpstart failed to complete. It then causes the
script to run again as i have retries per 12 hours set to 2.

Anyone any idea why the time out is not being honoured for the client?

Cheers
Dave

Dave,

Looks like you have a typo below, but that's not important.  What is is 
that regardless of what the bpstart timeout is set to on the client, it 
has to be set to the same or greater on the master server...if master 
server timeout is less than client, master will get honored before the 
client.  You also need to have it set the same or greater on the media 
server.

Hi

 For netbackup RMAN backups we also set CLIENT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT

 Hi dave,

Hope you found the answer, but if not, my best guess would be the global
setting 'backup start notify timeout' setting on the Admin Console 
Netbackup Management  Host properties  master server properties 
timeout. 

Is this overriding the other timeout setting in bp.conf?
