How large is the bootstrap backup? If this is a problem with the media DB
itself, try quiescing the server, running a bootstrap backup and then doing an
mmrecov. Only the good data is backed up as part of the bootstrap and the
media DB rebuilt, so this may solve the problem.
Just checked a server here, and with 1256 volumes, 1 year max retention,
240,000 savesets, 675TB of managed data and 809 clients, the media database is
175MB. I don't think there's anything especially strange about the setup on
that server which is likely to mean that the mdb would be particularly large or
small here - monthly backups have a year's retention, weekly have 1 month and
daily have 2 weeks. Going on the numbers here, unless you've got huge numbers
of savesets or tiny pieces of media or thousands of clients, I wouldn't expect
your mdb to get anywhere near 3.8GB.
Cheers,
Stuart.

Subject: [Networker] Media Database Size limitations in Networker 7.1.3 +
Any one know the max size of MM database.
Currently we are at 3.8 GB and growing.
We are having problem in doing a backup of bootstrap.
The group is failing due to RPC errors.
But when I looked at savesets the bootstrap is complete and in a
recoverable state
Ssflags are vrF, fragflags are cr.
I am totally confused on what think. Is my bootstrap completed
successfully or not?
Any one out there experienced this?
