How do you use nwrecover to recover data that's contained on media
located on two different tape libraries, each
managed by a different snode?
We're running 7.2.2 with two snodes and one library each. I need to
recover some data wherein it required tapes
from both libraries. I launched a recover (nwrecover), and the first
couple of tapes it needed were on snode1, but
then when it gets to the point where it needs a tape on snode2, it
reports that it's waiting for that tape on snode1.
I know the tape is located on snode2. I thought it might give up after a
while and switch to the other snode, but it
never does. This seems odd.
Each of the NSR client resources for both snodes has both snodes listed
in the Storage nodes field (first itself, followed by
the other snode). Ditto for the server. I don't have any of the devices
selected for the given pool, so it should be able to use any of them.
I tried changing the Save mount timeout and Save lockout to 2 and 1
respectively for the devices, and that doesn't seem to
help. I then tried selecting the devices for snode2 for the pool, but
it's still waiting for the next tape on snode1.
A Save set recover would be much more time consuming as I'd have to read
through a lot more data to get what
I want.
How can I get this to work?
