ANS1228E Sending of object '/fs5' failed

[rons]

Configuration is a standalone system

5.1.6.5 Server

5.1.5.0 Client

AIX 4.3.3 ML10



I get the following messages when doing a backup of multiple filesystems,

using DOMAIN to specify the FS's in my dsm.opt file. They only occur

after it has successfully backed up 4 filesystems (370K files, 45GB), then

fails to backup the remaining filesystems (2) in my DOMAIN statement. I'm

backing up directly to tape using this command in a script and

Copy Mode=ABSOLUTE in the copygroup.



dsmc incremental -subdir=yes



When Copy Mode=Modified, which is how I'm normally backing things up, then it

works. But then its not doing a full backup as I am wanting to do

occasionally and so it doesn't backup nearly as much data. Also, it has

worked with Copy Mode=ABSOLUTE in the past, probably backing up less data

though.



Here are the errors that appear for each FS that fails.



cuFSQry: Received rc: -451 from cuBeginTxn

fsCheckAdd: received error from server query

ANS1228E Sending of object '/fs5' failed

ANS1474E An error occurred using the Shared Memory protocol



Any ideas of what the cause is of this?



Thanks,

I opened a problem record with support and they had me change these values.



idletimeout to 60 minutes and the commtimeout to 2600 seconds.



The commtimeout documentation suggests raising this if backing up large files and

although they aren't huge, when it was failing, it was at the end of a filesystem

containing lots of oracle archive logs that are 157 MB in size and so I also moved

this filesystem to the last one in my list and it is now working successfully.
