Gerard,
Briefly, You have to look at recovering your indexes for the specific client
(assuming it is a valid client and was backed up recently) from tape.
The easiest way to do this is to run a:
nsrck -c clientname -L7
This should re-create your client index - with records - from your last
index backup. You should then be able to do your normal recoveries for the
specific client.
Note this is all assuming you have index backups and this is a valid client
and your backup server itself is sound (no corruption etc).
Running a nsrck -L6 will do a high level cross-check of all your indexes on
yoru backup server.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Riaan

Subject: [Networker] about WISS error
hello,
i had this error on my networker server (SBU 5.5.1)
* scr:/var/yp/etc save: WISS error, bad database header
...
06/23/04 05:33:09 nsrindexd: Warning: /nsr/index/scr/db missing file sr_x1
...
i tried to recover /nsr/index/scr/db, but it seems it was'nt on my tape!
after googling and reading this list, i do:
mary2-root% nsrck -m scr
mary2-root% nsrck -X scr
nsrck: checking index for scr
nsrck: index for scr is missing.
nsrck: The client index is missing, recover the index or run nsrck -c to
create the index.
nsrck: completed checking 1 client(s)
mary2-root% nsrck -c scr
nsrck: index for scr is created.
mary2-root% nsrck -X scr
nsrck: checking index for scr
nsrck: cross-checking index for scr
nsrck: completed checking 1 client(s)
so now, i hope this is ok, but:
- if i try to recover older files, with nwrecover, for example at 06/21/04
(before error), networker says:
"Nothing in index at this time"
What can i do to recover my indexes? i have to scan tapes from the last full
backup? and after, how can i be sure that unecessary tapes are recycables?
Thanks for hour help,
Gerard HENRY
