My problem was that I installed the Networker packages on a new server
and then simply restored my previous directory over the current new
directory. This created many duplicate entries, such as usergroups,
notifications, policies, snapshot policies, pools and so on. I had my
previous entries as well as new standard entries. I couldn't remove them
from the GUI because the server would tell me I can't delete system
entries.
I went in the nsrdb directory and saw that most of my duplicate entries
were created exactly at the time I installed the packages on the system.
So I made a search for files that were created on that date and went
over each one of them one by one to make sure they were really
duplicates. If they were I'd simply delete them. After I went through
all of them, there were some more duplicate entries that had their
timestamps updated since the installation. I used Networker
Administrator to identify the remaining duplicates and removed them from
the nsrdb directory. Of course I took a backup of nsrdb before doing
this. I kept stopping and starting Networker while deleting the
duplicates to make sure everything was still stable.
Thanks for the help.
David

Subject: [Networker] Double usergroups and notifications after
reinstallation
Hi, I have a weird issue since upgrading our Solaris 8 Networker server
to Solaris 10. We did the upgrade by doing a fresh new installation of
Solaris 10 on the server and reinstalling the Networker packages,
followed by overwriting the /nsr directory with a ufsdump/ufsrestore of
the previous /nsr from the Solaris 8.
Since then things are working OK and backups have resumed but I noticed
some double entries in a few places. For example, now in User Groups, I
have two Administrators groups and two Users groups. I still have my
originals, but I have new ones that seem to contain default records
(such as user=root,host=qcmtlash).
I also noticed I have double entries in Server Notifications. Again, I
have my original notifications, but now I have default entries as well
(sending mail to root).
When we restored the ufsdump, I forgot to shutdown Networker first. I
aborted the ufsrestore and shutdown Networker and then restarted the
ufsrestore.
Anyone have any ideas?
We use Networker 7.2.1.Build.311
Thanks,
David

A patch is available. Just go to http://powerlink.emc.com and log in
then search for "NetWorker 7.4" and there's a reference article on
how to download the patch. You can also search for LGTsc07669 to find
the info because that's the code EMC assigned to this patch.
