Re: I keep getting lan-free backup errors, but we have migrated away from lanfree backups

2018-10-23 Thread Stefan Folkerts
Hi Marc,

Thank you for your reply.

1 - the wrong stanza was edited
There was only one stanza using lanfree on the host, the other (b/a backup)
always used lan-based backups, I checked that at least 3 times and my
colleague looked over my shoulder because I felt like I was going a bit
crazy. ;-)

2 - DSM_DIR is set and the wrong dsm.sys file is edited
I searched the entire machine, al dsm.sys files are links to the same file
that was edited, all have * in front of all lanfree components.

3 - there's another machine also configured to use that nodename
This appears to be it because the fqdn I see in the messages resolved to a
different server that I know nothing about. Maybe they have something
standby that is connecting using the same nodename.
The other server also has an IP that's not on the server that I migrated.
:-)
Thanks for this, I was a bit stuck thinking it had to come from the same
machine!

Sometimes you just need a little nudge in the right direction, so thanks
again.

Hi Stefan,

It's likely one of those things:
1 - the wrong stanza was edited
2 - DSM_DIR is set and the wrong dsm.sys file is edited
3 - there's another machine also configured to use that nodename
4 - there's more than one dsmcad and the wrong one was restarted.  You
should be able to see the IP in the activity log when the session is
established, that will at least help you narrow down which machine it's
coming from.
5 - if enablelanfree is specified more than once in a stanza, the last
reference to it will be the one taking effect.

Thanks,
Marc...

Subject: [ADSM-L] I keep getting lan-free backup errors, but we have
migrated away from lanfree backups

Hi,

Quick question, I can't seem to solve this little problem.

I've migrated a couple of nodes from making lanfree backups to making
lan-based backups over 10Gb/s to another server (exported node definitions
only).
Everything works fine except for the fact that actlog is filled with these
warnings for all nodes that made lanfree backups in the past:

ANE4048W (Session: 755286, Node: )  LAN-Free connection failed.
(SESSION: 755286)

Now, I removed everythink lanfree related from the stanza of these nodes
and restarted the cad (no scheduler active).
The dsmsta isn't running.
I still get these warnings, I'm a bit at a loss as to why.
I thought enablelanfree yes->no would do the trick but now I have removed
all lanfree entry's and restarted the dsmcad as I said, but still the
messages keep popping up.

Haven't worked with this in a while, so there is a good chance I'm just
forgetting something.
Any suggestions?

Regards,
   Stefan
