VxSS is not needed. And
if you decide to install it the performance of the activity monitor will be degraded.

Hi Ian
Hm well my first thought was incorrect storage unit for the policies -
but you mention other clients appear to be ok - I do wonder if its worth
re-creating the storage units again.
In terms of the client machines that appear to hang in Activity Monitor -

Depends on what "you" as a company want. It may not be viable - But there
again, in your business it might be something you want to
implement.

Hi,
You can use storage pools
from netbackup to track your tapes. Netbackup knows if a tape is inside the
library and you can use a script to inform netbackup were are the tapes that
are out of the library (with vmchange command)

Guys im mailing on behalf of a colleague who works on the windows side
of the fence. He asked me this question about netbackup but i wasnt too
sure on how it would behave.
He basically wants to backup *.trk and *.bak ( i think cant remember )
on a couple few drives.
Now he cant put m:\*.trk and
You will also want to look at the logs to isolate where the
communication breakdown is.
Enable verbose logging with this in your /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf
file, on both master and media servers:
VERBOSE = 5
Then, create some log directories on the master and media server. All

I have a restore that is requesting 6tapes, the 1st tape is loaded from tape library 2 and runs fine then the second tape gets requested from tape library 2 also even though the second tape is intape library 1. The tape may have been in that library at one time but it is now in our off-site
Put ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES at the policy file list.
Put all your drives at the exclude list (c:\ d:\ e:\ m:\ n:\ system_state)
Put m:\*.trk n:\*.trk m:\*.bak and n:\*.bak
I suggest not starting any exclude and including lists with *

H sounds complicated, but looking at the SysAdmin guide, you may be best
to specify the drives that WANT to be backed up within your current policy
(or a new policy, depending on what your overall goal is).
Now, reading this it sounds like you specify the file extension (ie: *.bat)

Maybe the DB guys need to place .bak files onto a SAN volume to make backups
easier to manage?
Hopefully something will work out, and yes, I guess more time will be spent
scanning the server(s) looking for these files rather than actually spending
the time probably backing it up :-)

Hi everyone,
You can try setting/creating the timeouts similar to what I use below on
your master and other media servers. I backup approximately 16 to 20
terabytes of data each night and I have to have extended timeouts so
clients don't fail due to long waits in queue for a drive. After making
There will definitely be a performance hit. All wildcards are expensive but
that's the price you pay for easy-to-manage.
How about finding all files with these extensions, writing them to a file, then
backing-up the file-of-files with bpbackup and the -f option?
dir m:\*.trk n:\*.bak m:\*.trk
Hi Patricia,
from my understanding of your problem I think Mark's suggested reason is a red herring.
I think the reason you do not understand the behaviour being exhibited is you have made some false assumptions about the logic NBU uses when performing a restore. The logic which causes this is
Tried it at version 5.1MP3. Eventually got a note from Symantec saying
that they were giving up implementing it in our environment.
It produced a quite noticeable amount of lag accessing the GUIs, and
since they weren't able to get AD to work here it would've required
managing 60-odd users'
Hi Dave,
Assuming you have to follow this method its not a problem so long as:
1) you don't mind having root level passwordless access from the master/media server to the clients host (via rsh or ssh public/private keys).
2) you don't mind having restore over the network, or you don't mind
What I've done in the past is just change any policy using a storage unit for
that media server to use a different one. Later, I just changed it back. You
can also set the available drive count for that storage unit to 0 do a
bpschedreq -read_stu_config . It's supposed to work to reread
Pat,
As long as youre are using the same
Master/Media servers and your tape library drives can be seen from the media
server doing the restore, you should only have to re-inventory library 1 and
2. This will sync your volume database on all the servers.
Thanks,

What about changing the Backup Policy to the Master Server? (ie: storage

has permissions to back

What I done was migrate the Netbackup Clients over to a newly created
Netbackup Master Server. The old one was still in production (Netbackup 3.4)
at the time and the new Master uses the Robotic Library. Clients were set to
allow the new Server to perform backups after client upgrades
Its not worth the headache.
Sorry, the SysAdmin guides are where I am going to point you Or try a
friend... Like google?
