Hi all,
I've recently updated to Networker 7.4 and I'm seeing a problem
which I never saw with 7.2. This is on a Sun Solaris 10/sparc
platform.
When recovering client indexes for a certain date, I normally use:
nsrck -L 7 -t 08/04/2007 clientname
if I wanted the client index for a certain date.
Today I tried it the first time since updating to 7.4 and it read
the index off the tape but did not load the index into the
database. I see these errors in the logs:
nsrmmdbd Media DB error: Save set eligibility can not be cleared, no
clone instance is within recyclable time period
Can anyone help me interpret what this means? We don't use clones
here so I'm a bit confused.
That's really strange. Back in mid-September, I upgraded from 7.2.1 to
7.4 on Solaris 9 on a Sun V480R. Two weeks later, I migrated that
server to new hardware running Solaris 10 SPARC on a Sun T2000.
During the migration process, I decided not to bother migrating any of
the client file index data from the old hardware to the new. I told
my SAs that if they needed to recover data older than the migration
date, I would be glad to recover their server's index data off tape.
As it happens, I received two requests to do that since the migration.
I also recovered the CFI data for one of the servers I manage directly
as a test. I used nsrck -L7 and it worked fine each time.
I am wondering if there's some corruption in your server's media or
CFI databases. Perhaps "nsrmm -X" and "nsrck -X" might fix this
problem for you. You might also consider opening up a tech support
request with EMC and join me in the line of people who have cases open
now involving NetWorker 7.4.
