Hello,
Stan, in the method you describe refers to NDMP to NDMP backups, i
believe you said you have the NDMP tape server licence, is that
accurate ? are the devices on SN configured as NDMP ? Can you take
out all other sn attribute from the client resource but the one you
want to backup to and try again ? What version of NDMP ?
Can you turn on NDMP debug on the Device and the group that it
backup to ? Is your pools, device allocation exclude NDMP devices
from the server for the group for NDMP ?
What about zoning, how can NDMP write to devices not zoned to the
NDMP appliance ? i am not a zoning expert however, backup servers
devices should not be zoned on the NDMP appliance if that is the
case ?
If you are using the over the network method make sure the cmd has
correct IP for the SN in the cmd line.
Here is the sample cmd that works with Netapp
nsrndmp_save -T dump -M -P 10.10.0.170 ( IP should be of the server
or SN)
I am doing a DSA backup now to an advanced file type device on a
storage node, however, this type of backup has only been in
production since Monday. Previously, my NDMP clients were backed up
to tape directly via the NetWorker server. I don't need Snapimage
now, and it is not even installed on our new hardware. I haven't
tried the -P option yet, but why use the IP address rather than the
host name? I intend to try -P as soon as the current NDMP backups
finish.
