Re: [Veritas-bu] NBU 7.0 on AIX

Judy,
I am curious as to what our differences
may be, in regard why I am experiencing this issue and you are not. It
happened again over the weekend, and I was able to determine that it happens
every 28 days, provided that I leave NBU up that long (which I normally
do). I was wondering if you stop and start NBU at shorter intervals.
Naturally, I uploaded my obligatory
182MB of logs to support, and turned off logging (yeah!). I will
keep everybody posted as to the results of the case.
I did notice, on a side note, that a
vmquery is still running when this happens. Murphy's law dictates
that it happens very early on Sunday mornings, when my thinking isn't quite
as sharp. If I have to stretch this out for one more iteration, I
am going to write a checklist of things to look at before I perform my
restart.
Scott

I agree the 6.5.3.1 was a solid
release.
Strange issue, and just because
it ran through my head – have you verified that the previous run finishes
completely before the next one starts?
I have not heard of any issue like
that – good luck with the upgrade.

All that I have right now is a symptom. We
have a hourly script that utilizes vmquery to count the amount of scratch
tapes, and sent the results to a mailbox. If I leave the master server
up for more than 2 weeks (I haven't determined the exact amount of time),
my hourly e-mail shows 0 scratch tapes, and all of the running backups
fail for lack of tapes. If I stop and restart NBU, everything is
fine until the next iteration of the unknown period of time. I didn't
have this in 6.5.3.1, which was rock-solid IMHO, by the way.

What is your issue? As I am planning the upgrade and I am currently
on 6.5.5 – I would really like to know what problem you have, that you
think 7.0 will fix. Please share with me.

It may, but I want to go to 7.0. I am dealing with a ~2 week recurring
problem on 6.5.5, and nobody can tell me if it is addressed in 6.5.6. I
have come to realize that AIX seems to lag behind in support, and wanted
to know if there was anybody else running 7.0 on it.

Does 6.5.6 offer 2008 support? I think it does but I might be mistaken.

I was just wondering if there is anybody running 7.0 in production on an
AIX master server. We need it mostly for the 2008 support. We
are currently running 6.5.5.
