Subject: [Veritas-bu] Duplicating
Large Images to Multiple Copies Fails After 20 Minutes
This
one has me stuck. We recently upgraded to NBU 6.5 and did not experience
this problem with 5.1. I have several images on tape I need to duplicate
to two copies on other tapes so that I can send them off-site. However,
whenever I try to run the duplication job (just manually kicked off), it fails
after 20 minutes every time (almost to the second). These images are
fairly large (about 100GB). Here is what I've figured out so far:
-Running
the duplication job with any smaller image that takes less than 20 minutes
succeeds just fine
-Running
the large duplication job with just a single copy works fine.
-Running
the large duplication job with any combination of storage units or tape drives
makes no difference.
Looking
at the logs while this happens, I noticed that right as the job begins to fail,
I get a lot of lines like this:
13:41:25.826
[9151] <2> drivename_open: Called with Create 1, file PP-L700-SDLT01
13:41:25.826

13:41:30.827
[9151] <2> drivename_lock: lock failed
It's
always at that mysterious 20 minute mark and if I'm trying to make more than 1
copy. It's like there's some limit somewhere that was implemented on
6.5. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks,
