What do you mean by DSSU flush? Images that have not been copied to tape will not purge unless you explicitly expire them. You can use bpimagelist -L -backupid $image against each image on the DSSU to see the number of copies. There is a known issue with 5.1 where partial images are left behind,

From the UI on the left is Storage Units. In here we have dssu1,2,3,4. Right clicking on these and going to Change, then clicking on Disk Staging Schedule you see Schedule type, which is (*) Frequency and is set to 4 hours. So every 4 hours it's supposed to be expiring and copying to tape, no? So

This is also a two parter because I'm getting errors about DSSU being full and jobs unable to write to it despite the fact a Flush just ran.. So maybe there are orphaned files in there. Not sure how to verify that on DSSU. On 07/01/2010 11:54 AM, Nate Sanders wrote: From the UI on the left is

Run an ls on the directory where the images are. You should see something like: |Image Identifier|C#|F#|Backup Time|.img Server_1234567890_C1_F1_1234567890.img Server_1234567890_C1_F2_1234567890.img Server_1234567890_C1_F3_1234567890.img Server_1234567890_C1_F4_1234567890.img

So the problem looks to be bigger than that. I'm still getting write failures and I even tried switching to a different physical disk for the DSSU. Out of 10 jobs, the exact same 4 jobs are failing every time. On 07/01/2010 01:03 PM, Nate Sanders wrote: Looks like 99% of the disk space was

Has the job just gotten so large that it cannot write to disk staging (700GB) any more? I know some of our Oracle Full jobs go straight to tape because they are too large. But this is an incremental OS backup.. There is no way it's that large. Try 1 PROCESS 1278017363 19536 bpdm PROCESS

I write 1.5TB+ images to DSSUs all the time, so I don't think the images are too big. I so use a maximum fragment size of 10GB. (10240MB). Do you have the bptm and/or bpdm log from the media server with the DSSU? (Not sure if bpdm was around in 5.1?) Is this one DSSU or all of them? -Jonathan

We used to have same problem. You need to use nbemmcmd -deletehost to remove it from EMM database. Before you do that, take the ownership of all media written by a particular media server, remove it from servers.conf, remove the associated storage units, make media host override change etc. Let
