[Veritas-bu] Getting a list of files from a failed backup
2008-01-04 13:12:40
Greetings,
I have a file system that has started to fail full backups on a regular
basis. The incremental backups run fine. This file system is on a hpux
11.11 server, There is only 228 gig of used data, but it does have
~5.5m inodes in use. The backup fails with a status 41. This server
has other file systems on it with more used inodes and more used space,
and they don't have this problem. I've run the backup at various times
when I know the network and file system load is low, but it doesn't change.
The current backup environment is 5.1 mp2. It was supposed to be
retired by now which is why it hasn't been upgraded.
The reason I want to see what files it is backing up before it fails is
that all of the backups seem to backup just over 195 gig before they
fail. The file counts vary quite a bit. I'm expecting that I may have
a very poorly laid out structure with hundreds of thousands of files in
one directory that is causing this problem. This may also be caused by
some timeout if it does hit this, but I haven't been able to find it in
any of the log files.
I was able to recovery an image from the tape listing by running
bpmedialist -mcontents -m bk7159. That returns image
massey_1199305335. I've tried doing the following bpflist command and
get the no entity found
bpflist -backupid massey_1199305335 -d 01/02/2008 -e 01/03/2008 -client
massey
I also tried running the bpflist this way and get no entity found
again. This format works when I give it a different client name and
pattern, so I know I have the syntax correct.
bpflist -client massey -st FULL -d 01/02/2008 00:00:00 -rl 1 -pattern
/mnt/wizard
I'm guessing some of this isn't working because the backup did not
complete and there isn't a valid image for it.
Any help you can provide that will show me where the backup is failing
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff
