When troubleshooting status 58 errors on a NetBackup client, the first thing to test is to whether or not you can access the client from the client Host Properties from the master server. If that works the same ports are involved when backing up the client as to when you access the client host properties. Connecting to the client host properties from the master server would prove the master server can access the client without any problems. So if using a storage unit on the master server you should be able to backup the client without getting the status 58 error. i am trying to create this script only for unix clients but the problem ii am not able to frame the logic and stuck how to startplease help.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Queued duplication jobs churning - tape mounts increasing
Would either of these be of any help? MEDIA_UNMOUNT_DELAY To specify a Media unmount delay property indicates that the unloading of media is delayed after the requested operation is complete. Media unmount delay applies only to user operations, to include backups and restores of database agent clients, such as those running NetBackup for Oracle. The delay reduces unnecessary media unmounts and the positioning of media in cases where the media is requested again a short time later. The delay can range from 0 seconds to 1800 seconds. The default is 180 seconds. If you specify 0, the media unmount occurs immediately upon completion of the requested operation. Values greater than 1800 are set to 1800. RB_MPX_GROUP_UNLOAD_DELAY The RB_MPX_GROUP_UNLOAD_DELAY parameter indicates the number of seconds that nbrb waits for a new job to appear before a tape is unloaded. (Default: 10 seconds.) RB_MPX_GROUP_UNLOAD_DELAY=10 This setting can help avoid unnecessary reloading of tapes and applies to all backup jobs. During user backups, nbrb uses the maximum value of RB_MPX_GROUP_UNLOAD_DELAY and the Media mount timeout host property setting when nbrb unmounts the tape. During restores, Media mount timeout is used, not RB_MPX_GROUP_UNLOAD_DELAY.

Meanwhile we had storage unit marked as inactive for the SLPs using that robot for a duplication stage. Now that the storage unit has been marked as active we have about 300 queued duplication jobs and it looks like after each image copy in the active duplication job finishes the job gets superseded by another backup job which unmounts the tape and remounts it then does 1 image. This is making duplication performance really bad and the tape mounts for the active media are going through the roof. They go from 0 to about 400 before media fills up. We didn't have this issue before the robotics reconfig I don't think. Scratching my head on this one. It may go back to a change in behavior after an upgrade from 7.1.0.3 to 7.5.0.4 also Info on the storage unit config. Dell ML6010 with 2 LTO4 drives presented to 2 media servers There is a 2 host SUG with the 2 drives. The target media group has max non-full media set to 2 At any time, I am seeing 4 active duplication jobs oscillating with no drive available with normally only 1 active at any given time due to unmount/remount overhead. Obviously only 2 can actually be writing to media at any given time. I tried taking one of the hosts out of the SUG, but that didn't help, still have 4 active jobs juking it out for the 2 drives and thrashing the robot and media mounts. Anyone have a suggestion?

All:
Our environment, HP-UX 11-31 currently running one master 1 media server on
NetBackup 6.5.2. We are running mostly unix / Linux backups and a couple
windows b/u's. Along with an HP Library we are using a VTL on a DataDomain 880.
My problem is that a few of our VTL tapes got deleted and re-added on the Data
Domain which obviously caused all the data on the tapes to be deleted.
NetBackup still thinks they are valid tapes and they show up in the catalog.
I've got the barcodes of the tapes and want to list off the files that were on
the tapes. I've tried running a bpimmedia to get the image from the tape and
then a bpflist command to list what's in the image. The bpflist come back with

RE: [Veritas-bu] Kbytes on Media seems to be greater than allowable size for this kind of media
Please read the disclaimer at the bottom of this e-mail. NetBackup determines the tape is full when it reaches the EOT mark on the tape. NetBackup reports the size of the data backed up to tape based on the size of the file on the disk. For sparse files, the disk may say 400,000,000KB, but if you take out all the unused space or compress the spaces the file may only be 200KB, hence the size discrepancies between the three different tapes in your example. Does this help? Regards, Patrick Whelan Enterprise Systems Support (NetBackup) LCHClearnet +44 020 7426 7624 Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad.

There is also a media its size is 200 000 000Kb. There is also a media its size is 400 000 000Kb. NetBackup says for All these medias Full independent on the size they have (I think like that! What is the criteria for NB to tell that!). What is the meaning of that? Why some medias are full although the size Is smaller. I mean the media is full even 200 000 000 Kb in size; The other is still accepting the data even bigger than 200 000 000 Kb in size. The other thing is that the size for this kind of media is 200/400GB. I think there is something I miss. Please clear my mind! I would appreciate If you could suggest/tell something about that!

Presently, we are migrating all NT 4 Servers to a new Windows 2003 Domain. I have an NBU 3.4 on NT 4 that performs almost every backup for all clients in the Network. As the old NT Domain needs to be shutdown, I want to look at possible ways to migrate NBU 3.4 to 2003. I have checked the veritas site, but do not see any real migration methods to move from 3.4 and I recall someone mentioning this was not going to be supported anymore, so I know there is not going to be much assistance from Veritas. Has anyone had any involvement in performing a migration from NT to 2003 (or 2000). Appreciate any opinions on this? I did think that I could use a NBU 5.x Master Server and create new backup policies on this Server (which is in a 2003 Domain). Thank you in advance Simon The simplest and easiest way to do this is to think about this as a D/R exercise, which then makes the task very simple. Here's what you do: 1) Install Windows 2003 and all applicable patches (reboot if necessary) 2) Install Netbackup as the Master (Use the same name as the old Master) 3) Install the latest NBU Maintenance Pack (if 5.1 use MP3A or MP4) 4) Do a complete manual catalog recovery. This will bring back all your policies and configuration information. This is a raw recovery so the command is issued like this: bprecover -r ALL -tpath \\.\Tape1. --- the Catalog is loaded here -- Ed Gurski [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu This email is for the intended addressee only.

RE: [Veritas-bu] multiple tape format in one library??????
Title: Message Please read the disclaimer at the bottom of this e-mail. What version of NetBackup are using? There was a bug in 4.5MP6 that didn't allow multiple storage units for a media server from the GUI, you can still do it from the command line.

Is anyone using multiple tape/tape drive formats in one library with a single media server? for example: one server, one library some LTO2 drives,some LTO3 drives. how do you manage it? can't (from what I can tell) assign each type of drive to a different storage unit (without a second media server). Do you have both types of tapes, and let NBU assign jobs and tapes to drives as it pleases? I want to avoid my LTO2 tapes being loaded into LTO3 drives and being written so that they can no longer be used in an LTO2 drive. Also, I'd like to send slower (100mb/s) clients to LTO2 drives, and GigE clients to LTO3, etc. best way I can see to do that is to add another library for the LTO3 drives, so that there's a separate storage units with just those drives, OR add a second media server, and configure zones to allow each media server to only see one type of drive.
