What distribution are you running? Ubuntu is not an officially supported client. It appears your version of glibc is incompatible with the bpcd binary.

Is you backup speed limited by the drives, or by the speed of the clients and or network? I don't know what drives you have, but using a very simplistic view, your backup of 14TB in 2 1/2 days only averages out to 68MB/sec, or 17 MB/sec spread evenly over 4 drives. Obviously it won't be spread evenly either in time or drives, but we can do a similar sized full backup in a similar time using one LTO-3 drive. The killer is the incrementals. Data transfer rate for the incrementals are really quite poor, down to about 2MB/sec for some clients, in contrast to to the fulls where they are limited by their 100Mb network connection. best [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm getting it done right now, about 14 TB starting friday at 6 pm till Monday at 6:00 am but it is tight.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Storage Unit Recommendations
We had a very similar situation where we have backups running for 3 days. We were getting very good thru put but just the volume of data getting backed up was killing us. We had Mutliplexing enable which helped but still running for days. We just implemented Multisteaming on our bigger servers, assuming you have the data carved up by drive letters, mutlisteaming works GREAT, what NBU will do is takes each drive letter and creates separate jobs so C: / D: / E: etc all get backed up simultaneously. It took our 3 day backup down to only 21 hours. Now if you are looking into Disk Staging, then you will need to assign your policies to the disk storage group. Then subsequently use the Staging Schedule under that storage unit to send the disk staged data to tape. You will want to ensure you have enough disk storage to handle the task. Once the data is sent to tape, NBU will assign each image with a ds prefix. This way NBU knows that the data was sent to tape and in the event your disk becomes full or hits your high water mark, NBU will remove the oldest .ds file first. The .ds is also used when your job retention period has come and gone. NBU will go in a delete the .ds files when they expire.

I am looking to improve the performance of my backups, I have 250 clients, with some SQL, Oracle, and NDMP agents sprinkled in. Should I break these up in to individual storage units for each drive and the n recombine them into storage groups of one 4 unit group, two 2 unit groups, and four 1 unit groups. Then assign the groups directly to the policies? Does that gain me anything? If I want to begin using disk staging do I need to change all of the policies from any available to either the disk storage unit or a tape unit?

They are both W2K3 and are both VMs, so the local NICs settings are controlled by the ESX host. The NIC in that host is 1GB / Full. If it indeed was a network issue I would suspect that every VM that is using the NIC would be have the same issue. Only two out of about 200 are having this issue.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Forever Assigned Media
I've found something interesting on a few of my media from this week. It looks like if a NDMP backup fails, after writing a tape or two the media kind of just sit there with invalid images. I've got two media this week from a 3 way NDMP backup that failed Saturday. The Media Lists report says they have 2 images on them, but 0 valid images. I'm not sure that this data can be restored, or that my NDMP box can restart a failed backup? I've restarted the failed backup and its already completed it's 2nd attempt, and I've found I can bpexpdate these media, but what a pain in the future. I wonder if this is by design?

Does this happen every time you run a backup? Do they run awhile before erroring out? We get 41's occaisionally, but a re-runs usually go OK. It is hard to say not knowing how your network is configured. Were these recently added to ESX.? Netbackup is very fussy about TCP/IP connections We recently had issues backing up through a firewall, I ended up doing a regristry hack to alllow more TCP retransmissions. . This can be a tough one.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Error 41
Create the logging directories on your client and set your logging on the client to the maximum. Run a test backup or wait for the scheduled backup to run and then look at your BPBKAR log. If that log contains TCP 100052 or 100053 delays, you may have a bad network card or network card driver. if this is the case, I would start with upgrading the driver. If that doesn't fix it, Veritas Support has an application you can run that will examine the network and can tell you if you have any strange things happening on the path between the client and media server. Also, a 41 can occur if the box is rebooting or loosing the network connection during backups. Verify that isn't happening. There's also a Troubleshooting Guide for EC41 you can use - google for that and it should come up.
