Re: [Networker] permaturely gets full
2006-12-06 09:49:19
I just went through pretty much the same problem.
I have a StorageTek L700e with LTO1 and LTO3 SCSI drives and Sun v880
and had tapes getting marked full with anywhere from a few hundred
kbytes to a few gigabytes on them. Had the StorageTek FE try replacing
the LTO drive and the cabling, which didn't help. In trouble shooting
it, I tried shutting down networker and doing a tar directly to the tape
device and it was showing a problem too, basically reporting that it had
reached the end of media prematurely. The tape drive that was having the
problem was daisy chained with the library and I found that eliminating
the daisy chain by putting the library on it's own SCSI channel
eliminated the problem. I discovered this by disconnecting the SCSI
cable from the LTO drive and putting a terminator on it, then doing a
tar to the tape device, and the problem went away.
Cheers,
Randy

Hi fellow networkers,
We are having a problem with our setup, we are using Networker 7.2.1 build
311 and L20 device. All seems ok with the routine backup, but when we
started doing cloning, most of the clone pools prematurely gets full. We
are using LT03 tapes and some fills only upto 25 GB. Is there a setting
somewhere that i might have missed ?
Thanks for your help.
