Hi Nick, are you sure that the group is doing nothing? I have just seen
a similar circumstance where my backup appeared to be doing nothing
although the nsrndmp_save was running. After 20 minutes the writing of
data started. I have a test of 4gb and 120,000 files. How many files do
you have and how long have you left the test group running?

Subject: [Networker] NDMP 7.2

Hello,

Since upgrading to 7.2 we've had trouble backing up our NDMP clients.
Since the upgrade, we've patched Networker (75442,72402,75831), which
changed the behaviour. The present issue appears to be, the local data
part of the backup writes to tape, but the index isn't written back to
the NW server. The group sits active with no activity, although
nsrndmp_save and nsrndmp_2fh processes are still running.

Has anyone else had similar problems and found a workaround?

Thanks
Nick
