there is a lockfile for each client... but restarting the daemons should
clear any locking... and i expect you've already done that a few
times...

it is mentioned in the manpage as /nsr/index/{clientname}/db6/nsrck.lck
if you want to check for locks with fuser command...

what happens if you do nsrck -L6 {clientname} on one of the skipped
clients?   if it errors on that then you may see something useful.

Thanks for the help.  I have deleted the files.

Legato Support is assisting.  The daemon.log states the following:
"02/28/06 15:58:58 nsrd: nsrmmdbd has exited on signal 11" when
starting.

Legato Support used webex and determined that the indexes were too
corrupted
for nsrim -X and nsrck -L6 (and probably anything else that was
attempted)
and a bootstrap recovery was needed.

The server backs up only 16 clients but at this time when nsrck -L6 is
executed only four of them are being checked/repaired and nsrck
completes.
I am thinking that nsrck may have some lock on a file so I have a
request
into support asking this.  Do you think that I should just delete and
recreate the "missing" clients?  This is an option even though I really
don't want to do it. I realize that I would loose all that data but if
it
will get me up and running then it would be worth a try.

Thanks for the help.

They are coredumps of the legato programs.  Useful only to the legato
support people to determine why their program crashed.. And they hardly
ever do resort to tracing coredumps so if they don't want them, you can
get rid of them - although I would suggest if you want to be sure, gzip
them (they really compress well) and move to another disk or system.

I also am a little worried about why you have to do mmrecov.... It is a
fairly radical step to take.... What does the /nsr/logs/daemon.log say
about the last time you tried starting it up?

Subject: [Networker] Networker 7.21 nsrmmdbd.<date>.x file question.

Networker 7.2.1 on Solaris 8 has suffered a crash.  With Legato
Support's assistance it was determined that an  mmrecov -v needed to be
done to get the server back on line.  At this time I need to recover
some disk space in order to execute nsrim -X and nsrck -L6 to continue
with the recovery.

 

I have come across the following information in the /nsr/cores/nsrmmdbd
folder.  Does anyone know what this information could be?  What I need
to know is whether or not it needs to be saved.  It is using up a lot of
needed disk space.  From the timestamp I can see it happened at or about
the time of the crash.  Any assistance is appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance,
