Subject: [Veritas-bu]  Puredisk Replication Errors
To: VERITAS-BU AT mailman.eng.auburn DOT edu
Message-ID: <1227646728.m2f.292339 AT www.backupcentral DOT com>


We use Puredisk to back up file servers at our remote sites.  We then replicate 
that backed up data to a duplicate puredisk server at our DR site.

The backups to the Puredisk server in our data center work great but some of 
the replication jobs sending the data to the DR site fail on occasion with a 
typically unhelpful error code.

Does anyone know if it is possible to manually kick off a replication job from 
within the Puredisk GUI ?  I'd like to test if these replication streams are 
failing due to a lack of bandwidth or if there is something else causing the 
errors.

Thanks in advance

Hi all,

Ive found that the new 6.5.3 patch seems to make the GUI more hungry for
memory and slower than the 6.5.2 version.

Anybody else see this ?

Dominik

Dear Judy,

I think if you add -t BACKUP to it, so that it would read:

  bperror -U -problems -t BACKUP -hoursago 24

should do it ...

Hi All,

we are planing to move our netbackup master server to newely built Windows 2003 
box

old master windows - 2000

veritas version : 5.0MP3



last time we tried this and when trying to configure storage devices none of 
the tape drives were detected for master (all the drives are visible from OS 
level)and it throwed an error,

"could not get device configaration, cannot configure devices, see 
troubleshoting guide for details (44) "

 "device discovery failed on host <Master-server>"



tpautoconf -a gives "Fatal Global Database consistancy error"





any idea what is going wrong here any tech note that i can refer in this

Of course, I wouldn't let the fact that Veritas has put this statement

  Note: A policy can contain more than one schedule. Symantec
  recommends, however, that calendar-based and frequency-based
  schedule types are not mixed within the same policy. Under
  some conditions, schedule types that are combined in one
  policy can cause unexpected results.

in every NetBackup Administrator's Guide since calendar-based schedules
were introduced, deter me, either.  No-siree, and even if I remembered
that somebody with calendar and frequency scheds in the same policy
comes up with a problem just like this every year, well, I'd ignore
that, too.  Pffft.

Sounds like some sort of inconsistency.

Not sure what your plan is to move to a new master - Are you using
bprecover to restore everything back to the new platform? Ideally, it's
be better to restore everything to the new hardware, using the same
OS/NetBackup revisions from the previous master.

Either that, or delete and rebuild the global database. As I said, to
me; sounds like something is out of sync.

There is a section in the NetBackup Disaster Recovery plan about using
the bprecover and restoring the catalogs. Remember, retaining the same
IP / Server Name / OS / NetBackup / Patch Level is essential to the
success of this.

Simon

You could on the old master: do one catalogbackup, then delete all the devices,
and do second catalogbackup(to disk.
And use the last catalogbackup for recovery on the new master.. and then set up 
devices like it should be.

I've done this successfully on an numerous sites. Not from W2000 to W2003 
though...

Sounds like some sort of inconsistency.

Not sure what your plan is to move to a new master - Are you using
bprecover to restore everything back to the new platform? Ideally, it's
be better to restore everything to the new hardware, using the same
OS/NetBackup revisions from the previous master.

Either that, or delete and rebuild the global database. As I said, to
me; sounds like something is out of sync.

There is a section in the NetBackup Disaster Recovery plan about using
the bprecover and restoring the catalogs. Remember, retaining the same
IP / Server Name / OS / NetBackup / Patch Level is essential to the
success of this.

Hi All,

we are planing to move our netbackup master server to newely built
Windows 2003 box

old master windows - 2000

veritas version : 5.0MP3



last time we tried this and when trying to configure storage devices
none of the tape drives were detected for master (all the drives are
visible from OS level)and it throwed an error,

"could not get device configaration, cannot configure devices, see
troubleshoting guide for details (44) "

 "device discovery failed on host <Master-server>"



tpautoconf -a gives "Fatal Global Database consistancy error"

Hi all,



I want to be able to send automatic emails out to notify when a backup
has failed i.e. anything other than status code 0. I have looked at the
script mail_bp_reports and that would work however it sends me all
backup status codes.



As scripting is not my forte I was wondering if anyone had a
pre-prepared script that they would be willing to share, or could point
me in the right direction.



Thanks in advance,



Steve.
