Re: [Veritas-bu] Maximum number of policies

Hi,
we are running NB 5.1 MP6 with around 1100
policies and over 1600 clients. We have been having problems with the
scheduler not starting things when they are supposed to start. The one thing
that is very important is to have the proper settings in the /etc/system file
for shared memory. If you don’t have this set correctly, you WILL have
problems with the scheduler.
We had a case open with Symantec/Veritas
about this and basically we were told that it would be best to upgrade to 6.x
because the scheduler has been completely re-written and is much more efficient.
We hope to upgrade to 6.5 later this year. In the mean time we have to figure
out creative ways to deal with the problems of the scheduler getting bogged
down.
I believe that you should not have
problems with only 100 policies if you have your memory settings correct in
/etc/system.
good luck.

Well I know of a site that had 120 policies, but never
reported an issue. Although its alot, I am not personally aware of any
recommendation that states what the limit should be.
Are you sure the frequency is right and the policy is
enabled correctly ?
If at all possible, can you consolidate any of your existing
policies and merge them ?

Hi
I have an NBU 5.1 installation with one master server (Solaris 9) and 6 media
servers (RHEL4, Windows 2003).
I´ve just created the 101st policy. The problem I´m running into is that
apparently the scheduler is simply ignoring
the backup window configured (it was supposed to start at 8pm but the job only
is added to the queue around 2am).
My question is: NBU 5.1 may have some kind of 100 policies limitation? Has
anyone here with more than 100 policies/classes in place?
Thank you
