[Veritas-bu] ACS_QUERY_TIMEOUT or acsd timeout values

2010-06-14 Thread Sebastian Schönwetter
Hello,

We are running NBU 6.5.5 in combination with a Fujitsu VTL, configured in ACS 
emulation mode.  I am getting recurrent Operator/EMM drive DOWN'ED messages for 
some tape operations, and they are always occuring EXACTLY 25 minutes after the 
mount request.

I was wondering if there are parameters I can configure for ACSD, more 
specifically the amount of time it should wait for a mount request.

I already strings'd the acsd binary and came up with the above parameter, but 
I cannot find any info on the default of this value, so I do not know wether it 
can relate to my 25 minute timeout seen in the logs..

Anybody have an idea ?

Thanks

[Veritas-bu] timestamps and incremental backup from snapshot on windows

2008-02-18 Thread Sebastian Schönwetter
Hi, 

We are trying to do an incremental backup from a snapshot volume mounted to a 
different server, using NBU 6.0 MP4. 

The full backup works fine, however the incremental backup just performs a full 
backup as well. 

We are not using the archive bit but relying on the datetime stamp mentioned 
in the NBU manual. 

Is there a way to reset or modify these datetime stamps, so I can fake the 
last full backup date on our source volume ? 

Greetings 
seb

[Veritas-bu] backing up Symantec Enterprise Vault

2007-09-04 Thread Sebastian Schönwetter
Hello, 

is anyone doing backup of Symantec Enterprise Vault, that could offer me some 
insight on how to accelerate backup performance ? A full backup takes almost 2 
days. We have 3 LUNs on a EMC CX each containing 2-3 million small files 
(mostly under 200k). I think the bottleneck is the NTFS filesystem layer, but I 
don't see anything I could do to improve the performance of NTFS on Win2003. 

Thanks, 
seb

Re: [Veritas-bu] Script to check if bpsched is running

2006-10-01 Thread Sebastian Schönwetter
are you on Unix or Windows ?

Quoting Cynthia Christensen [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Does anyone have a script to verify that bpsched is running and have it
 send you an email if it isn't (or another suggestion as to how to detect
 bpsched not running)?  Last night bpsched died so no scheduled jobs
 kicked off.  I'm on NetBackup 5.1 MP3.

 Thanks,
 Cindy

Re: [Veritas-bu] Does anyone know what operating system this is and what, if any, NetBackup version supports it?

2006-08-22 Thread Sebastian Schönwetter
Could be any (old) version of any (old) distribution (as 2.2.19 is a 
very old kernel).

Check for existence of file

/etc/redhat-release
/etc/SuSE-release
/etc/debian_version
/etc/slackware-version

and cat the file, then you'll know distribution and version

Re: [Veritas-bu] Backing up MQSeries

2006-08-11 Thread Sebastian Schönwetter
On HP-UX,

create a cron job which makes an LVM snapshot of your MQ directories.  
Then mount this LVM snapshot somewhere and back the snapshot up ?

I suppose AIX also has snapshot capabilities..

greetings
seb


Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 I am running NBU 5.1 MP5 on HP-UX servers and we backup MQSeries which
 is on both AIX and HP-UX platforms.  We have had limited success doing
 BCP recovery tests.  Some research identified an IBM Redbook
 SG24-5222-00 which says the MQSeries Queue Managers need to be shut down
 prior to being backed up.  This is not conducive to our environment
 which requires the production queue mgrs to be up 24/7.  We do have
 maintenance zones and could possibly get good backups every week or two,
 but this also isn't acceptable.

 Does anyone have any other ideas?  I have not seen a Symantec agent for
 this to do hot backups.
