[Veritas-bu] Backup of exchange using wrong name
Hi All I'm backing up a customer's machine over a dedicated backup network with our own naming convention, which doesn't always relate to the actual name of the machine. This has been working OK for Filesystem and SQL backups, but I am unable to get an exchange backup working in this way. Example Exchange server is called exch We back it up as cust-exch-b and a filesystem backup works, but exchange backup doesn't work, we get this in the bpbkar log: 10:26:37.515: [5140.964] 2 tar_backup_tfi::setupFileDirectives: TAR - backup filename = Microsoft Information Store:\ 10:26:37.530: [5140.5648] 4 tar_base::keepaliveThread: INF - keepalive thread is active with an interval of 60 seconds 10:26:38.593: [5140.964] 2 ov_log::V_GlobalLog: INF - BEDS_Init() Enter InitFlags:0x0 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 2 ov_log::V_GlobalLog: INF - DumpDleInfo() DLE Device Name: C: 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 2 ov_log::V_GlobalLog: INF - DumpDleInfo() DLE Device Name: D: 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 2 ov_log::V_GlobalLog: INF - DumpDleInfo() DLE Device Name: Microsoft Terminal Services 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 2 ov_log::V_GlobalLog: INF - DumpDleInfo() DLE Device Name: Microsoft Windows Network 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 2 ov_log::V_GlobalLog: INF - DumpDleInfo() DLE Device Name: Web Client Network 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 2 ov_log::V_GlobalLog: INF - DumpDleInfo() DLE Device Name: \\cust-exch-b\Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 2 ov_log::V_GlobalLog: INF - DumpDleInfo() DLE Device Name: \\cust-exch-b\Microsoft Exchange Public Folders 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 2 ov_log::V_GlobalLog: INF - DumpDleInfo() DLE Device Name: Shadow?Copy?Components 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 4 dos_backup::V_VerifyFileList: INF - unable to determine UBS type for:Microsoft Information Store: 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 4 dos_backup::V_VerifyFileList: INF - UBS Local Type for 'Microsoft Information Store:\' -- 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 4 dos_backup::V_Initialize: INF - Exchange Backup - Disabling Open File Backups, Archive Bit processing, TIR and Job Estimating. 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 4 backup_create: INF - NetBackup Temp Directory: 'D:\Program Files\Veritas\\NetBackup\Temp' 10:26:43.171: [5140.964] 2 tar_base::V_vTarMsgW: ERR - object not found for file system backup: Microsoft Information Store: So it looks like I'm missing a bit of configuration on the Exchange agent to tell it to use a certain name when talking to Exchange...

Re: [Veritas-bu] install client with ssh
Since it's solaris, it's really easy to just copy it from another working client, too. Grab the entire /usr/openv directory in a tarball and just untar it on the new machine. Change the client name other info in bp.conf. Grab the bp entries from /etc/services /etc/inetd.conf and add them to the other client. HUP the inetd daemon. It should work. Verify the bpcd port is listening correctly with netstat -a | grep bpcd. You should see inetd listening to the bpcd port. Other than that, just finding the install script and replacing rsh with ssh works fine, too. Of course, the trust relationship needs to be setup first (and the first contact made host key accepted and all that other normal prep work.) -M -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dave Markham Sent: Thursday, April 17, 2008 6:48 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Amado Gramajo; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu; Jeff Lightner Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] install client with ssh Thanks dude, ill give the rsh rename a go.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Unexpected EOF reading image doing a bpimport (Jerry Rioux)
Hi Jerry, You can use the debug_add_files touch file to get around your problem. Here's a cp of the relevant technote: For Netbackup 4.5, 5.x install_path\netbackup\db\images\client_name\image dir\debug_add_files For 6.0 install_path\netbackup\db\images\client_name\image dir\tmp\debug_add_files This touch file can be used under certain circumstances to restore from a partial import if the catalog is in a binary format. If the catalog is in an ASCII format, these steps can be used but you will not need to add the touch file. The first phase of an import creates the header file (non.f). The second phase of an import creates the files file (.f file). If the import fails during the phase two import for some reason (bad tape block, missing tape in a multi-tape backup, or the backup was incomplete etc.), NetBackup will not be able to browse the image for restore even though both files needed are created (assuming that the second phase of the import did not fail right away). 1. Perform the phase one import. Your directory structure will look something like this. The directory may have many images. This example assumes there is only one image. Directory of C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackup\db\images\Sap\105800 07/22/2003 01:54 PM DIR . 07/22/2003 01:54 PM DIR .. 07/22/2003 01:51 PM DIR catstore 07/22/2003 01:51 PM 822 Sap_test_1058889087_FULL 2. Create the debug_add_files touch file. Here is an example showing the new touch file. Directory of C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackup\db\images\Sap\105800 07/22/2003 01:54 PM DIR . 07/22/2003 01:54 PM DIR .. 07/22/2003 01:51 PM DIR catstore 07/22/2003 01:24 PM 0 debug_add_files 07/22/2003 01:51 PM 822 Sap_test_1058889087_FULL 3. Run the phase two import. As long as the phase two import gets to the point that actually starts writing entries in the files file, the structure may look like this. Directory of C:\Program Files\VERITAS\NetBackup\db\images\Sap\105800 07/22/2003 01:54 PM DIR . 07/22/2003 01:54 PM DIR .. 07/22/2003 01:51 PM DIR catstore 07/22/2003 01:24 PM 0 debug_add_files 07/22/2003 01:51 PM 822 Sap_test_1058889087_FULL 07/22/2003 01:51 PM 181,627 Sap_test_1058889087_FULL.f 07/22/2003 01:50 PM 338,287 Sap_test_1058889087_FULL_debug.f 4. When the phase two import finally does fail or is stopped, rename the .f to .f.old or any other name, and rename the _debug.f to just .f Sap_test_1058889087_FULL.f becomes Sap_test_1058889087_FULL.f.old Sap_test_1058889087_FULL_debug.f becomes Sap_test_1058889087_FULL.f 5. This is where you would start if you are running an import to an ASCII catalog and it fails. Edit the header file (Sap_test_1058889087_FULL). Change the IMAGE_TYPE from 1 to 2. The IMAGE_TYPE is set to 0 (zero) for backups, 1 after a phase one import and 2 after a successful phase two import. If the IMAGE_TYPE is left at 1, Backup, Archive and Restore will not browse it for restores. Example: IMAGE_TYPE 2 Open the files file (Sap_test_1058889087_FULL.f) in a program that can count line numbers. Textpad can do this by going to Configure | Preferences | View, and selecting the checkbox for Line Numbers. Count the number of lines in the files file. Edit the NUM_FILES entry in the header file to represent the number of lines as above. Example: NUM_FILES 1778 You should then be able to open up Backup, Archive and Restore and browse the image for restore. Since this was a partial import, not all files will be available for restore, but you may get the required file. Hope this helps you, regards, Ian Jackson ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
Re: [Veritas-bu] Backup of exchange using wrong name
James, I had the same setup and the same problem in NB5.x and Exchange 2000. I suspect the agent was looking at the mail database and seeing the hostname of the server only. The quick solution was putting the primary interface of the system on gigabit and living with the performance hit during the backup window, which was late at night. I never found a method to implement backups of exchange, like you describe, by looking through this list or the Veritas site. Possibly due to the method by which the exchange system was built, the policy I used to backup the filesystems used the FQDN, but the policy for the mailboxes and mail store used the short name. I think we left the backup network on the box for filesystems, because it wasn't a big deal to have a couple of extra gig ports consumed, and a few years later we were forced onto Notes. Problem solved. -Jon Hi All I'm backing up a customer's machine over a dedicated backup network with our own naming convention, which doesn't always relate to the actual name of the machine.

Hi all, I have an environment that was set up a while ago and possibly not in the best configuration: two separate locations about 5 miles apart, each with one Master server. Bandwidth between the sites is a T1, so I am not sure if it is feasible but we will be upgrading soon from 5.1 to 6.5 I suggested we look into the possibility of merging the environments into one master and one media since it would ease some of the management burden of dealing with two separate environs. First off, what steps can I take to ensure that this would be a wise move? Assuming it would be beneficial, is there a procedure to convert a Master into a Media while retaining all of the catalog information?

By default your restores are logged in installpath/netbackup/logs/user_ops/root/logs However, it only holds these logs for the length of time you've configured to hold all logs. Presumably you could go back and do an alternate restore of files from this directory for past periods if it were truly important to have the information. You can also specify a path to use for the restore log when you run it which is what we do with our database refresh restores. Those logs would stay there until you purged them (or set up a purge routine). I'm curious why someone would want this information.

Re: [Veritas-bu] install client with ssh
1) Do a normal /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/install_client_files ftp client to some Solaris 10 box in your environment. 2) On the client you'll now have a /tmp/bp directory on the client with all the needed files and stuff you need to automate future installs. 3) Hack the /tmp/bp/bin/client_config script to do automatic configuration of the CLIENT_NAME, REQUIRED_INTERFACE, other desired bp.conf entries, exclude_list, etc. 4) Copy in any additional files needed to support your hacking (i.e. exclude_list file, etc) to /tmp/bp 4) tar up /tmp/bp and then you can use your favorite method to move the tarball onto any client that needs to be installed, untar it, then just run your hacked client_config script to automatically do the install and client configuration. I will say you have to re-hack the client_config script at each new NetBackup version, or at least check it to make sure they haven't added/removed any files to/from the install, but otherwise it's been working pretty well here. I now have install tarballs I can get loaded onto any of our UNIX clients and Joe-SA can run a single command to do all the needed configuration.

Once done, if you don't have a record of the catalog tapes, you'll have to search your tape collection for them. For cold catalogs, use 'bprecover -l' on all of the media until you find your most recent catalog tape. Then you can use bprecover to recover from it. If netbackup is running, you can run 'bprecover -l' in a loop. I need to know how to find my catalog Tape? Without a record, you have to search the tapes you have access to. If you haven't changed the catalog tapes lately and you're using barcodes, I'd start at the lowest numbers and work up. I've walked into a lot of sites where it was never rotated. So the catalog tapes were XXX000 and XXX001. Compare the dates and recover from the most recent one.

(I am going to have to reinstall it) I need to know how to find my catalog Tape? As others have responded, the first question is hot or cold backups. If cold, the tape format is different from normal backups, so--as others have noted, bprecover -l is one way. I prefer vmphyinv. Read the man page for it and look for the form that inventories a slot range, give it as many drives as you like for read drives, and it will load those tapes, read the labels to determine what type they are, and spit it out to your terminal. From the ones identified as DB backups, go to bprecover -l. If you did hot catalog backups in the NetBackup 6.x sense, you can phase-1 import all your tapes and look for the type 35 backups. Phase 1 is *much* faster than phase 2. Worst case, phase-1 and phase-2 import all your tapes. BT, DT, it's a pain and only need be done if no catalog backup exists. You'll have to recreate your setup, but all the data will be recoverable. You're in the right book--the DR section of the NetBackup Troubleshooting Guide.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Sharing drive in multiple NB domains
If you split one library into two virtual ones, you'll divide the drives, too. Drive's won't share between the two so the reservation thing'll work out on its own. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 17, 2008 4:06 PM To: Curtis Preston; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] Sharing drive in multiple NB domains Library is one thing, but what is with the Handshake for the reservation.

Can anyone help? Thanks! James --- There are two peculiarities with MS Exchange Public Folder, Mailbox and Information store backups that are not well documented, or at least were not well documented in NetBackup 4.5 and 5.x. The first is that the client name of your server in the Host Properties/Client Properties/Client Name dialog for the Exchange server needs to be the NetBIOS name for the server. If the NetBIOS name is not the same as the FQDN then change it in this dialog box. In your case change the client name to exch. In the Host Properties/Client Properties/Universal Settings dialog box change the Use Specified Network Interface to the hostname or IP address of your backup subnet NIC. The other thing that you need to do for Exchange backups and restores to work properly is set the name of the mailbox for message level backups and restores. This is set in Host Properties/Client Properties/Windows Client/Exchange. You can also enable single instance backup for attachments here which reduces the amount of data you back up by storing a single instance of a message attachment and then for subsequent mailbox backups that contain that attachment set a pointer to the attachment. You'll have to have your local Exchange guru create this mailbox on the Exchange server if it doesn't exist. (I'm lucky, I work with a wicked smart Exchange/Mail/MS products guy who knew exactly what to do as soon as he saw this dialog box.). Another thing you can do when backing up mailboxes, and some people might think that I'm completely insane for doing this, is use a wildcard in your backup selections window on the policy and allow multiple streams. So in backup selections you might have an entry that looked like this: Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes:\* Doing this causes NetBackup to spawn a separate job for each mailbox on your Exchange server. I set this up after a couple of incidents where NetBackup was backing up the MS-Exchange mailboxes, hit some weirdness in one of the last mailboxes that needed to be backed up and decided to choke, puke and fall all over itself. This caused the entire backup to fail. Now if I have a mailbox with weirdness in it that NetBackup doesn't like that mailbox backup fails without affecting the backups of the other
[Veritas-bu] bpflist command problems
Our environment is HP-UX 11.11, Netbackup 5.1 MP3 backing up mostly HP unix with some Sun and Windows backups. I have been using the bpflist command in a script to parse out files that have been backed up. We moved the master server to a new host using the same hostname and ip address (HP-UX 11.3). I just found that my script using bpflist is no longer working, I can only get it to list off files backed up from one policy. The command that works is: bpflist -option GET_ALL_FILES -class sfd-elmer2-unix -client elmer2 -d 12/09/01 00:00:00 -e 12/31/10 00:00:00 If I change the policy name after -class to another valid policy name, I get the following: no entity was found There were good backups from the other policy name but the bpflist command is not finding what files were backed up. Anyone have any suggestions what is going on? Again, this had been working fine, the only change is that we changed servers. Thanks in advance,.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Restore reports (UNCLASSIFIED)
Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE I had the logon issue also. Try this... 1. Logon with admin/Vxadmin and the domain that starts with [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2. If you changed the password during the install and did not make it the same during the vxss and nom installs then you will get the error you are getting. You can reset the vxss password using the command vssat resetpasswd. But I don't know of a way to change the NOM password independently. Go back to 1. Good luck. I've just gotten past this and will be tackling the configuration issues next. Looks like it's mostly getting servers talking to each other correctly. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of griff Sent: Thursday, April 17, 2008 4:05 PM To: VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: [Veritas-bu] Restore reports Thanks for the responses. I've been trying to install the NOM server but I haven't had much luck with it. I already have VxSS setup on our master server for NBAC. So I tried to setup NOM on a client and I can't seem to log into it with the default admin password. Keeps giving me User authentication failed. There's probably a trust issue somewhere. I leaning towards uninstalling VxSS on the master and installing everything(VxSS and NOM) on the client server. Hopefully that will fix the issue. Also, I need the restore information for auditing purposes. They are always asking for proof of restores.

Re: [Veritas-bu] sniff...bpgp is gone from 6.5
Just wondering if you NetBackup 6.5 admins can check to see if bprsh still is available. bprsh is similar to remsh or rsh # bprsh -Q bprsh [ -l username ] hostname command [ -FF ] [ -SO filename ] [ -SE [filename] ] -SO writes all stdout to filename -SE writes all stderr to filename, or, in the absence of a filename, appends/catenates all stderr to the end of stdout. In the absence of -SE in either form, all stderr will be interspersed in the stdout as it was issued. In the absence of -SO, -SE and -FF, everything is written to stdout as it was issued. -FF ignores all output, and just starts the command, not waiting for completion; -FF will override -SO and/or -SE if present. Use quotes as required, especially around the command pathname (escape the quotes). Note: The list of commands allowed is extremely limited. NOTE: On Unix clients, only commands found in the /usr/openv/netbackup/bin or /usr/openv/volmgr/bin can be executed. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of rob worman Sent: Monday, April 07, 2008 3:49 PM To: VERITAS-BU@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] sniff...bpgp is gone from 6.5 This thread is pretty much deceased, but I thought I would resurrect it briefly to point out that the latest entry to the official NetBackup blog (did you know that there was an official NetBackup blog?
