Thanks Jack,

Will take a look at the technote and my environment; I'm fairly sure however
that we ensured everything was persistently bound quite a long time ago.

Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] SCSI reserves on SSO windows drives

I experienced problems with SSO drives on Windows media servers in the past
due to SCSI target ID's changing whenever the media servers were rebooted (at
least once a month for OS patching). I manage several SL3000 and SL500
libraries with a mix of HP LTO4 and IBM LTO3 drives (22 and 8 respectively).
The media servers are W2K3 x64 NBU 6.5.5 with Emulex LP11000 HBA's. All media
servers are zoned to all drives. This may not be directly related to the SCSI
reservation locking problem but the issue I had with SSO was fixed by
defining persistent SCSI target ID to LUN mappings on each HBA. This
particular issue and solution is well documented.

Hi Stefanos
No its not irrelevant, as I was given the very same article from Symantec
Support. Luckily for us, the latest HP firmware corrected the majority of our
problems.

Although its still not uncommon for some engineers to be working on the
Fabric while backups are running to cause a few "minor" issues :-) Simon

Not sure if anyone can help it, but i have a most annoying problem with SSO
windows drives and reservation conflicts.



I have 8 IBM Ultrium 2 drives that are shared between 10 windows media
servers (2000+2003). Backups can work fine for a few days and then
'RESERVATION CONFLICTS' appear. Occassionally vmoprcmd -crawlreleasebyname
will release the reserve but more often than not a trip to the datacentres
and a physical reset of drive is the only recourse to break the reserve.



Drives are all same firmware revision and tape drivers are all IBM 6.1.3.5.
Netbackup 5.1 MP6, it's legacy but no current path to upgrade so i'm stuck
for a while.



Does anyone know where i should be looking to identifying what's placing this
reservation, it's not Netbackup i don't think? Or is there anything i can do
to reduce the reserves?



Regards

Mike

Re-install the IBM tape drivers using install.exe -n for Non-Execlusive.
Non-Execlusive = no SCSI reserves.
Also,?run the DisableDPF.reg file, in the reg folder, to set the registry.?
This will reduce the number of problems but will not eliminate the problems.

Hi All,

We are facing a peculiar problem , where  policies starting around midnight
are launching only parent jobs, but none of those parent jobs launch child
jobs for each listed client in policy. The same client works fine if we start
manual backup with same policy. Working with Symantec actively, but if anyone
faced the problem already, would like to know how it got fixed.

Thanks

If that were true, RMAN would be unable to restore.
Having used RMAN/NetBackup to do many restores, that statement seems
incorrect to me.

One thing that I have seen is that if the tape has been vaulted, the media ID
changes and RMAN no longer knows the correct media to ask for.

When that happen, I have to supply a date range to our Backup Admin, and he
requests the right tapes to restore to the time period.

As re-cataloging NetBackup tapes back into the RMAN repository is nearly
impossible, I never expire anything from RMAN.  That way when an old tape is
put back into NBU, RMAN still has the correct names to request.

I guess it is possible to re-catalog NBU tapes back into RMAN, it just isn't
documented by Oracle.

Here's an undocumented CATALOG command you may find interesting:

Are you sure RMAN actually knows about the tape an image is on? If it does,
that is just silly. It should just ask for a backupid, then NBU will give it
the correct tape, regardless of whether it's a duped or vault copy or
whatever. I've always been sure that that's the way it worked (Although, I'm
not a DBA and don't know that much about RMAN).

Why would RMAN, if it's using the sbt_tape "pipe" to talk to NBU, need to
know media details? It doesn't make any sense. I can understand it if you're
using RMAN without NBU to write straight to tape, but if RMAN is just piping
data to NBU, why would it need to double up on NBUs media management?

Does RMAN also track disk STUs? I know in our environment, we write all our
Oracle archive log backups to a DSSU, then they get moved out to tape and
deleted from the DSSU within a day or so. We restore regularly (to
development), and it always works fine, regardless of whether the archive log
backups are still on disk or have been moved to tape. Does that mean RMAN is
aware of the destage process? I highly doubt it.

I think you're right, it just keeps the Media ID.
It's been a few months since I have looked closely at it.

Regarding vaulted tapes:  RMAN will not know that a tape has been vaulted, so
it will have the wrong media ID for requesting the tape.

If the tapes are restored into the NBU catalog, RMAN will then ask for the
correct backup pieces by name.

This not an issue with RMAN, as the API has that capability, at least
according to the docs.

It just has not been implemented by Veritas.

This would bear further investigation, as that situation may have changed
since I last looked into it.

Does RMAN also track disk STUs? I know in our environment, we write all our

There is a way for RMAN in later version to track backups that are staged to
disk and then backed up on to tape.

I have never used it, and don't know any details about it.

We are running NBU 6.5.5 on RHEL5.
4 identical RHEL5 media servers each attached to its own DELL ML6000 tape
library, the drives being shared.
We have this issue on only one of the libraries.
After seeing this problem the firmware on all of the libraries was upgraded
to the latest version available.
The firmware upgrade didn't fix the problem.

There were no hardware errors before or after the firmware upgrade.
It's intermittent , sometimes working and there doesn't seem to be a pattern
to the failures.
On occasion we've had to resort to using robtest to get the tapes into the
access port.

Planning on going to NBU 6.5.6 in the next few weeks, maybe this will fix the
problem.

I'd be interested in knowing if anyone is seeing this issue with an SL8500
running ACSLS.

Thanks

Hello All,

I have an issue when I try to eject tapes, the process hangs but it only
ejects one tape. I am running NBU 6.5.5  on Win2k3 64x, Storagetek L700
library.  Has anybody seen or have ideas how to fix this?

Thank you,
Ulises.
