Hi James, The colon and the backslashes in this path: can’t create file: usr:\local\pathname\to\file (WIN32 3:The system cannot find the path specified.) have me concerned. AFAIK, this is not a valid path in Linux and I would expect to see something like /usr/local/pathname/to/file instead.

Symantec supports the current and two major revisions back of the client. So, in your case, 7.0.x will support 7.0 clients, 6.5 clients and 6.0 clients. This isn't to say this will not work, and even Symantec states that though it's not supported, it still may work just fine. In fact, if it's

Hi All, The first question I have is where could the client hostname not be found. The scenario: NetBackup 7.0.1 Solaris 10(both client (sparc) and master(x64)) Two physical hosts in an active/passive cluster Either system can be backed up by its physical name. If I try to use a logical

Just a shot in the dark, but have you enabled image compression? We have servers with millions of tiny files that produce huge images files (5GB+) and compressing those into a .tgz might chew up a fair amount of space before the original image gets deleted. -Jonathan From:

James You would need to uninstall the patch on the Master, and potentially, reapply a Catalog backup from your environment that was not patched. But if its one client causing a problem, dont update the client, rather than goto the effort of rolling back? Or have I missed something. Simon

You're a good shot when it's dark! yes, I see the Compress Catalog Interval checked and set for 2 days. This doesn't happen every two days, though; makes me wonder if it may happen after some many backups, or a set amount backed up... Thanks From: Martin,

That's the only thing I can think of, too (other than logs, but that would be more of a gradual increase than all at once, I would think). Keep in mind that catalog compression will keep the catalog compressed until someone needs to search that data, such as for a restore or bplist. The image

[Veritas-bu] NDMP differentials of Netapp path backups

Hello everyone- Looking for assistance on the configuration required got differential incremental backups of our Netapp volumes (NDMP) setup. I have been able to get what appears to be cumulative dumps/backups of our NDMP paths by setting the SET UPDATE = Y entry at the beginning of the policy
