Since going to version 7.2 and a LTO 2 library I've been having some
problems with restores. They usually work but from time to time I get
directories that won't recover. The current one starts off saying all
volumes needed are online, loads the 1st tape and then gives the
server name : busy and nwrecover: waiting 30 seconds then retrying
messages over and over. Networker shows it loading the tape and then
in the device window says reading, done (full), the last lines in
the sessions and messages windows both list the disk mount directory
path and say done reading. I've had luck in the past by doing a
relocate on the directory and getting it to recover but that didn't
work this time. Any hints on what cause this problem? I have
mutliple sites and this has happened at each of them. I updated to
the LTO 2's and newer version of
This sounds pretty close to a problem I saw with Networker 7.2 on Linux.
Try touch to add the file "no_stripped_recover" to the /nsr/debug
directory on the server.
If memory serves me right, at some point in the Networker 7.x series a
new feature was introduced that allowed multiple streams to be recovered
simultaneously. Setting "no_stripped_recover" disabled that feature.
Take this explanation with a grain of salt, my memory is hazy on why it
fixed it! If it does solve it then I would call the support line looking
for a current patch.
