Hi Allan,

We have 4 Netware Machines with SP5 but sometimes we have the same case. We
"fix" the case when we backup the volumes at different time. When we Backup
it on the same time i have the same case as you. But we have a Netware
Cluster with Cluster Volumes and no Single Servers or Standalone Volumes.

Best Regards Martin

Betreff: [Networker] Netware 6.5sp5 - Networker 7.2.1 client backups failing


Hi
We've just upgraded a batch of servers from Netware6.5sp3 to sp5.

They're all running the Networker client 7.2.1, and currently have the
default sp5 TCP NLM's.

We're finding backups a bit flaky to say the least (though on odd nights
they backup OK). This is currently acorss 2 sites (8 servers), but we have a
few more sites who will be upgrading very soon.

The two sorts of errors we're seeing are...

1) Some volumes (not always the same volume) never start, so a server with
say 4 volumes will backup 3 - the 4th will never start.

2) Backup of a particular volume will loop round and round.  It shows as
completed  but then restarts, and we have to kill the backup job to stop it.

I had seen mention of back revving to TCP659j, so tried that on a test
server.  It backed up twice OK, then abended!

Have also tried TSA5up19, but no joy there either.

Anyone else having problems?

Cheeers.. Allan.
