Thanks for the quick response.  I checked in the pack.history file(s), and it seems to be there for the 6.5.3 upgrade (though oddly, not the 6.5.1 upgrade).

 

[root@timmy pack]# grep -i stream pack.history

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/streamsfile_update not found, it will not be saved.

Converting STREAMS files.  This may take a few minutes...

STREAMS files conversion is complete.

 

I hadn’t heard of this previously.  Has anyone else had success in overcoming it?

This sounds similar to the issue with 6.5.2 and the re-posting of 6.5.2A.  If you look at your pack.history, can you see that the STREAMS conversion happened?

 

I see that it happened for my system:

All-

 

Not sure if this is expected behavior or a bug -- or I'm missing something.  Here's the scenario:  I ran a FULL backup on Monday-Tuesday using NBU 6.5.1.  I upgraded to 6.5.3 on Wednesday.  Since then, many (but not all) of my Daily-Differential (Incremental) are backing up as Fulls.  There doesn't appear to be a rhyme or reason, but since the upgrade, many of STREAMS within a single policy are acting as if that Monday Full never happened.  The change rate is VERY low, so on a partition with 350GB of data, it's normal to have 1GB or less change daily -- yet I'm backing up 350GB every night.

 

This is happening within a policy, so I don't think it's a matter of settings.  Anyone seen anything like this?

 

Thanks-
