Our environment... Win2K3 Netbackup Enterprise Master 6.0MP3 2 x Solaris 8 Media Servers 6.0MP3 8 x SDLT drives with SSO. I want to swap out one of the Solaris media servers for a Linux (SLES9) media server. This is so I can utilise an HP disk array as DSU on Linux. The array does not support Solaris. My question is which would be the best approach? Any gotchas? I am thinking of shutting down the Solaris media server, installing the Linux Media server with the same hostname, then recover the catalog to the new media server. Perhaps I can just tar up the appropriate media catalog directories on the old box and restore them on the new. Does the NB install process of a media server mess with the master db? I suspect it would to add itself. I'd prefer to keep the old media server hostname if possible. Or should I just install a new media server with a new name, and redirect any restores of data from the old media server to the new one?

Re: [Veritas-bu] Tape not mounting
Hello Dave, Is the drive SCSI connected correctly? Also terminated at the end of the chain. Funny, just sorted out an identical problem - start a job runs, attempts to load in drive 1, downs the drive, mounts in drive 2. My problem was the SCSI Cable BETWEEN the drives. Absolutely nothing wrong with it from a visual perspective, but after changing the drive, it worked fine. Also, has this problem been constant, or has it just recently started to occur? Have you attempted to try ROBTEST by chance? Does your robotic library give an indication of a drive problem? Rebooting of the Robot perhaps?

Re: [Veritas-bu] Linux Media Server, Adic Library, and Drivers
We have to Linux media servers talking to a linux master. While they're using an ADIC Pathlight VTL (FC connected with QLogic 23xx cards), to the linux box it still tastes just like a scsi tape drive. I want to think we used either the IBM tape drivers (an RPM was available for SUSE on IBM's site), or left it to the standard linux kernel with /dev/sgx and /dev/stx for the devices. does a rpm -qa and some grepping No drivers, just standard linux kernel. Something I did have to do with SLES9 is to make sure the QLogic and Adaptec cards were loaded in the initrd, so the device ordering would be consistent when the box needed to get rebooted. We had a condition where the device addresses (/dev/st#) would move to different numbers on a system restart. Putting the drivers in the initrd fixed that and they load in the correct order every time. And, fwiw, we are (soon) getting ready to replace our scsi attached Scalar 100 with a fiber attached Scalar i500. So I might be able to shuffle some things to test out the FC vs SCSI attached drives if there's a difference. But, I thought the Linux kernel treats FC and SCSI the same way as far as system-to-device interaction goes. hth, ~ Robin On Wed, 2006-10-25 at 16:20 +, Len Boyle wrote: Jason, We have downloaded ibm tape drivers for hp/ux from the url: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/dlsearch.wss?rs=546tc=STCVQ6Zdc=D430 For solaris 9 we are using the sun drivers for ibm LTO3 tape drives with qlogic cards. len We're testing a Linux media server now to try and resolve some NDMP issues.

Re: [Veritas-bu] 6.0 advantages?
Title: 6.0 advantages? In an environment with multiple media servers you only have to recover the Master in a DR. This allows us to be up and recovering any server in the 2 hours it takes to recover the catalog. If a media server is needed for throughput you can do a basic install of Veritas on it and be up and running. With all the data on the Master the media servers do not need any data recovered to be functional.

Re: [Veritas-bu] 6.0 scheduler issues
I should note that I added the pre-MP4 patches, and left checkpoints enabled. I only have three policies that use checkpoints, all of them being large windows storage server NAS systems. The rest of my data is oracle on solaris. NB support said to call if the problem comes back, even though I have left the checkpoints enabled. I think they just want to know if it failed. If I get failures now, my only recourse is to disable checkpoints, leave the pre-4 patches, and wait patiently for MP4. Wow. 70 policy failures I bet that was annoying. -Jon I wish I would have gotten this thread on Friday, before I enabled checkpoint restart on all 70 policies and spent all Monday freaking out. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jon Bousselot Sent: Monday, October 23, 2006 2:13 PM To: Ed Wilts Cc: veritas mailing list Subject: Re: [Veritas-bu] 6.0 scheduler issues An update on the support ticket... After submitting logs and various other things requested by support, the suggested solutions to my problem are: 1. Delete the pempersist file on a regular basis. 2. Disable checkpoints in the backup policy (this seems to be a major contributor to the problem) 3. Install some PRE-MP4 engineering patches that were granted only after the case was escalated. It is two files that you just replace and relaunch netbackup. 4. Disable checkpoints and wait for MP4 which should be released in November 2006. I have been deleting pempersist, and the problem goes away for five to fourteen days. Adding the engineering patches worked fine, but it has been less than a week, so I'll be watching the activity log closely.
