Re: [Networker] backup of / failing

there are only two partitions on the OS disk / and var (well tmp too)
there's no firewall of filtering - they are in the same room on the same network
the -D9 output is one thing that EMC asked for and still no progress - it ends
thusly:
walk(/usr/openwin/bin/Xprt, Xprt)
save: Walking for /usr/openwin/bin/Xprt
save: lg_lstat(): Calling native lstat().
`/usr/openwin/bin/Xprt' change time Mon Nov 13 10:08:29 2006
save: file_get_stsize(), size = 1701824
uasm -s /usr/openwin/bin/Xprt
save: lg_open(): Calling open().
save: no extended ACL entry for `/usr/openwin/bin/Xprt'
/usr/openwin/bin/Xprt: fid = <0, 4790>
save: Encoding SF_MAGIC3 saverec.
lost connection to server, exiting
I tried a .nsr in /usr to skip that directory and it fails just the same
someplace else
I'll try that env on the client though
thanks!

I assume that / has more data than /var, correct?

Is there perchance a firewall or some other filtering in between the 2
servers. It sounds like the control connection is getting terminated
since there is no data passing on it. This can happen with large
volumes when data is being transferred on the data ports and nothing on
the control port.
If you set the NSR_KEEPALIVE_WAIT environment variable in the start up
script on the client to something like 30, this will send a keep alive
packet on the control port every 30 seconds.

You might also try running a backup of / manually on the client with
"-vvv" and/or "-D9" arguments to `save` to get some better output if the
NSR_KEEPALIVE_WAIT doesn't work. Usually with "-D9" you can see exactly
what's going on.
Happy Hacking!
