[Veritas-bu] ACS_QUERY_TIMEOUT or acsd timeout values
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 ?

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

[Veritas-bu] backing up Symantec Enterprise Vault
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 ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
Re: [Veritas-bu] Script to check if bpsched is running
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.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Does anyone know what operating system this is and what, if any, NetBackup version supports it?
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 Quoting Whelan, Patrick [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Linux some-server 2.2.19-SMP #1 SMP Thu Oct 25 17:55:16 GMT 2001 i686 unknown Patrick Whelan NetBackup Specialist Architect Engineering +44 20 7863 5243 Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most! - Unknown There are only 10 kinds of people on earth - those who understand binary and those who don't. * The message is intended for the named addressee only and may not be disclosed to or used by anyone else, nor may it be copied in any way.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Backing up MQSeries
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?
