Re: arrgh 519 error

Or a SCSI terminator or ID number:)

Derek.

  it doesn't appear to be a network problem at all.
when i created a backupset on the hard drive i could backup a fast G4
no problemo
its only when i backup to a tape backupset...

Lindsay,

Since you mentioned that the tape drive is new and that backing up to a
file on the G4 is working ok, I'm thinking that something is amiss in the
SCSI voodoo department. Just 'cuz it's new, doesn't mean it works. ;-\
Have you tried a new or different cable?  Hooking the tape drive up to a
different Mac? A different tape drive? Any and all of these things can
lead you to an answer: cable, tape drive, scsi card, logic board even.

Just a thought,

Pam

Re: AppleShare server crashing on every backup

[Derek Ellerton]

I also found that upgrading such a server to OS 8.6 and ASIP 6.2 
solved such problems.

Cheers.
Derek.

This sounds like the classic 519 scenario. (check the retro-talk
archives, there is tons of info on this including a whole section on the
dantz website devoted to this).

I can pretty much guarantee this has nothing to do with your scsi chain.

If you 've already tried replacing the ethernet patch cables and moving
the server to a different port on the switch, you have two things left
to do:

solution 1: upgrade server to OS 8.6 (fixes built-in ethernet problem on
G2 Power Macs)
solution 2: install a 3d party ethernet card (ie AsanteFast 10/100)

(or, better yet, do both).

If you do wind up installing 8.6 on the server, you may have to upgrade
the version of ASIP to 6.2 -- don't know if v.5x is happy under OS 8.6

  Ok, I've had it.  I have a 7600/132 with 64 MB of RAM running OS 8.1 and
  ASIP 5.0.3.  I realize that's pretty skimpy but we intend to upgrade in the
  new budget year.  As for serving up files it does just fine but every
  single time it gets backed up over the network it crashes and Retrospect
   gives a 519 error.
