Re: [Veritas-bu] NDMP restore issue

I have seen something like this when I hadn't created the volume on the other netapp controller doing a alternate client(filer) restore

Think that /etc/messages (\\netapp_dallas\etc$\messages) on the netapp controller netapp_dallas could indicate the problem as it sounds like a netapp/NDMP problem

All,

I am running into an NDMP restore issue on one of my servers.

I have backed up from a NetApp in Boston and I want to restore it to a NetApp in Dallas. The tapes have been imported and everything is in the catalog on the master server where the restore will be done. The NetApp version is ‘NetApp Release 7.3.2, both master and media servers are running Netbackup 6.5.6. Any help would be appreciated.

Also, I have verified that the NetApp can connect.

# tpautoconf -verify dallas_filer

Connecting to host " dallas_filer " as user "root"...
