Have you tried using a different tape to backup the DB? How large is it?
Is there any logging enabled to see at what point the backup of the DB
Fails?
Also, is it stored on a disk with sufficient space?
What is the retention periods? You could use bpexpdate to force them out of
Netbackup,

Hello Andrew
Here is what I have from an earlier mail (for extract just change t to x)
I have had succes with listing the files on a tape with Netbackup tar when I
know the blocksize.
For nonmultipexed tape, blocksize 256k:

what about Firmware for the SDLT tape drives?

I
assume its been physically powered down / restarted the drives /

Also,
do the tapes go into a DOWN STATE during the middle of a backup, or beginning or

ACtually just one more thing I noticed - you said they checked cables -
what about REPLACE? Reason I say this, is due to the amount of time its been
working (June to Oct) and we are now in Jan, so I think its safe to say it
sounds like H/W

Check that the /dev/rmt/* entries match the devices in the robot. You can
see if they do by inserting a tape into the drive and then issuing a
mt -f /dev/rmt/* status for the /dev/rmt/ number you have the drive

How do you zone your

for each HBA port,
do you create a zone for the HBA port and all drives visable to
it?
ie. one HBA
and 3 drives = 1 zone?

Hi,
I have a SAN with two DSSU's on the
same partition(probably not the best thing).I need to free up some space
on my DSSU's because I'm running out of space.
Should i be using rm on the files i
want to delete?
Thanks
Karl

Definitely NOT.
Use
the GUI and expire the PRIMARY IMAGE of backups that have been moved off to tape
already.

Also be aware of how DSSUs operate. They will keep images that have

Try
running "sgscan tapes" to see if you could see all your tape drives. If
you dont see all your tape drives, you need to fix that problem first, then
remap the drives.

This makes it much easier if you ever have to swap an HBA (and we have

If you configure port based zoning ,then you even don't have to make
