Re: [Veritas-bu] Error 71
2007-06-20 06:10:30
Here's what I found in the NBU6 Unix Admin Guide 1 (page 154):
"All the files listed do not need to exist on all the clients, as NetBackup backs up the files that it finds. However, each client must have at least one of the files in the backup selections list or the client backup will fail with a status 71. The policy backup selections list does not apply to user backups or archives since users select the objects to back up before starting the operation."
I realized after reading this that due to me using NEW_STREAM for each directory, NBU was creating separate jobs for each directory and this meant that that job had to fail if the directory did not exist on one of the clients. Once I removed NEW_STREAM all directories were part of one job (per client) and it all worked fine from there. Thanks guys.

I believe you will get a STATUS 71

Hi All,
I've created a policy for multiple
servers (all Solaris) having some common mount points and some uncommon ones
for e.g.,
- ServerA, ServerB, ServerC all have /oracle - ServerA,
ServerB have /erp - ServerC has /app
I've defined a backup policy to
backup the 3 mount points from the 3 clients (with NEW_STREAM for each of the
mount points mentioned above). I'm getting error 71 for the servers which
donot have the directories existing on them.
- Is this what's supposed
to happen? I was under the impression that NBU6 will ignore the non-existent
directories and continue with the backup or was I wrong? - How do I get rid
of this error without having to create multiple policies? Exclude list hasnt
done anything for me here.
Would really appreciate the help here.
Thanks.
Regards, Khurram
