Hi all,
Apparently, this has nothing to do with SP at all !
The (Windows server 2019 on ESXI) system holding the containers just
disconnects for 5 minutes !
No pings to the server.
When access is restored, later on, a message appears in the events:
"The system time has changed to
Hi Michael,
Thanks a lot.
The SP Server is not on VM, just the storage. I am not the manager to the
server.
Just got a lot of backup storage if we provide the space for the containers.
Sure we run a lot of sessions in parallel as you said. I will try a run
according to your recommendations.
Hello David,
an *SP-Server in a VM is not the best setup, but nevertheless it should work
- and has proven so for the past.
For the client: Please show the dsm.opt. I suspect you are trunning several
sessions from this client in parallel during a backup-> stop it for the moment.
Start with a
Hi Chavdar and Michael,
Thanks for your thoughts and help.
I added "memoryefficientbackup".
But still the sessions keep crashing. Once the session crashes, I get a whole
bit of errors for storage pool directories, and in fact the whole pool
becomes unavailable.
I run "update stgpooldir
Just to make sure that we are on the same page...
You have TSM installed on VM running on VMware. This VM has few LUNs
presented and those LUN are used for containers?
Short in the dark:
1. Check VM resources if they are as IBM TSM blue print.
2. Check LUNs/HDDs response time in perf. monitor.
Hello David,
if partial incremental backups work, but full incrementals fail, this points
to a problem with the client.
Have you tried the clientoption "memoryefficientbackup" already for this
client? It might be that the number of files grew in the past and just hit the
memory boundaries of
Hi Chavdar,
For the containers we use a dedicated Windows Server, (on VMWare EsxI), with
just a bunch of disks on NTFS. Each disk about 4 TB.
INCR of one specific client crashes since a few days every time. There are
about 25 million files there (40 TB).
If I try incremental backup on a part of
Hi David,
What kind of storage do you use for containers (SAN, NAS...)?
