[Veritas-bu] Temporarily downing a robot/library
Does anyone know of a way to temporarily stop using a robot/library. There are several connect to the media server and we want the others to continue. Is there a way, short of downing all the drives, to accomplish this?

[Veritas-bu] Incremental backup question
Hi All, I suppose the answer is obvious, but I'm having trouble getting my head around it. What happens to an incremental backup whose dependent full has expired. For example A full backup is run and expires in 90 days. 89 Days later an cumulative incremental is run and expires in 30 days. Two days later the Full expires. Is the incremental still useful? If so, to what extent.

[Veritas-bu] Another frequency based scheduling question.
Hi All, You would think after 16 years I would know this answer, and I think I do, but I would like other opinions or facts. Here is the quandary: Backup window 1900 - 0600, frequency 1 day. Backup runs at 0300 for various reasons, including manually run. Question: Will the next backup run the next day at 1900?, 0300? or not at all. This is NBU 6.5.6. If you think you need to know the OS, please explain why? P.S. I have read Marianne's and Joseph's fine dissertations on Frequency based, but they do not, as far as I can see, address this question only if you have multiple schedules running on the same day, which I do understand.

Hi,
Please include the list in the future.
It appears you need to limit your labels to 6 characters.
Check the volume manager manual, you need to edit vm.conf for NBU 6.x++
the labels for LTOX should be no more than 6 characters long, if your
barcode reader reads more than the first 6 characters, you need to limit
it.
BTW, is this a new environment?
Or did this just start happening?
If it just started happening, have you run an inventory and retried the
backup?
Justin.

Re: [Veritas-bu] open files to be backed up
It's not a matter of whether you can or can not backup an open file, it's the type of open file that you are backing up. If it is a database file and the database isn't aware that you are backing up its file the file will not be in a state that the database can use if/when you restore it. MOST database consist of more than one file so the current file that is being backed up will be in one state whereas the next file will be in a different state and so on. So that when the files are restored they will all be in different positions and the database won't know how to reconcile that difference. Database can be backed up without agents but the database must be in control of the backup in order to insure a stable environment for the restore. I hope this makes sense.

Since you are on MP5.1 MP4 (i.e. before 6.x) you should be able to change the first bp.conf entry to reflect the name of the new master.

Hi, I remember doing this awhile ago (~2 years) when I had a media server which suffered a failure, re-installed NBU but forgot how I fixed it :) For this instance, I re-provisioned from RHEL3 to RHEL5 and re-installed NBU but now NetBackup thinks its a client. ** * ALERT - ACTION REQUIRED ** This installation could fit one of two scenarios. Follow the instructions that fit your situation. ** 1. It appears NetBackup is being installed with the intention of using a different network interface than the default (media-server). NetBackup daemons will be shut down. Additional entries must be added to /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf and /usr/openv/volmgr/vm.conf. The entry and the file affected are as follows: REQUIRED_INTERFACE=master-server (bp.conf) REQUIRED_INTERFACE=master-server (vm.conf) DEVICE_HOST=master-server(vm.conf) After these entries have been added, start the NetBackup, Media Manager and client daemons by executing the following command: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bp.start_all ** OR ** 2. This machine appears to be a member of a cluster. NetBackup daemons will be shut down. Do not install any NetBackup add-on or database agent products on this machine until after the NetBackup server has been configured to run in a cluster. After NetBackup server installation activities have occurred on all members of the cluster, execute the following command on the primary node: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/cluster/cluster_config ** I should not have to enter the REQUIRED_INTERFACE etc, I am only using one interface.

for tape in `vmquery -a -l | awk '$8!=- $9!=0 $12~/OFFSITE/

eject $tape

The awk selects robotic tapes (field 8), not slot 0 (field 9), volume
pool contains OFFSITE (field 12) and prints Volume ID (field 1).
Note - the change from field 11 below to field 12. Field 11 is volume

The eject function is left as an exercise for now. Note: it's the
vmchange command.

True, NetBackup does require root, but you might be able to setuid on the start-up script and execute it that way, have never actually tried. I have, in the past setuid on all the entire executables in netbackup/bin, and changed the group for the files, then started them with a user belonging to that group.

I found this list googleing around, hope you can spare a few minutes to read this and maybe help me. I don't know much of backups really, I needed to start and handle media a few weeks ago. We usually have 12-15 tapes filled each day with backups, half of it goes ofsite with a month retention (including catalog tapes), half we keep here talking of daily backups of course. The guy before me showed me that sometimes tapes don't get deassigned after expiration; he told me roughly how to check for this and how to deassign/expire a tape manually. He also told me I should place old catalog tapes back to scratch pool. Now. As I started to understand more about netbackup, I realised we have lots of frozen tapes. Tapes that always get assigned but don't get written. I have turned on bptm log and noticed these are all old catalog tapes (googled the error message). The problem is, since we always put old catalog tapes back to scratch pool, the next day's catalog tape will be a random tape. So, we just end up with more and more catalog tapes that we cannot write on. I guess this was just a mistake noone noticed before... Anyway. I have unfrozen the tape and the next day it got frozen again. Then I have found some docs saying that if you want to recycle a catalog tape you need to relabel it. But, relabeling doesn't work for me... tried 2 methods so far: Z:\bplabel -ev 000188 -d dlt Requested number of drives are not configured in the Activity Monitor I have: 12/04/2007 14:38:40 - begin Label 12/04/2007 14:38:40 - started process bplabel (976) 12/04/2007 14:38:40 - mounting 000188 12/04/2007 14:38:41 - Error bplabel(pid=976) Requested number of drives are not configured 12/04/2007 14:38:41 - end Label; elapsed time: 00:00:01 error requesting media (tpreq)(98) Then I tried to relabel using the GUI: 12/04/2007 14:41:49 - begin Label 12/04/2007 14:41:49 - started process bplabel (77988) 12/04/2007 14:41:49 - mounting 000188 12/04/2007 14:42:39 - mounted; mount time: 00:00:50 12/04/2007 14:42:42 - expected media 000188; found NetBackup media 12/04/2007 14:42:42 - end Label; elapsed time: 00:00:53 media manager found wrong tape in drive(93) Okay, I know sometimes you can get error if the media type is different - I am not even sure how to check what it is... For example I got this tape: C:\vmquery -m 000200 media ID: 000200 media type:1/2 cartridge tape 2 (14) barcode: 000200L2 media description: Added by Media Manager volume pool: SCRATCH (3) robot type:TLD - Tape Library DLT (8) robot number: 0 robot slot:9 robot control host:fileserver1.domain volume group: 00_000_TLD vault name:--- vault sent date: --- vault return date: --- vault slot:--- vault session id: --- vault container id:- created: 19/07/2005 17:35:25 assigned: --- last mounted: 13/04/2007 10:34:03 first mount: 20/07/2005 10:21:40 expiration date: --- number of mounts: 65 max mounts allowed:--- This tape is one of the many I am keeping an eye on since the past days and can't get to write them. I also tried to delete it using 'vmdelete', hoped netbackup will forget about it but it didn't - at the next backup try the tape got frozen again because it contains VERITAS NetBackup (tm) database backup data and cannot be used for backups.

[Veritas-bu] Multiple Retention Levels

I have now had to go to the remote site twice in one week to cycle tapes and will have to go again on Monday, because of this screwup (normally we only have to go every two weeks). So if there is a command line way to check, than I can write a script to catch it before it does too much harm. Thank you for allowing me to rant.

Re: [Veritas-bu] How to check the approx. available space on a tape?
Since no two tapes are exactly the same length, what is this going to tell you, even if you did find out where the EOT marker was? I suppose if your are really insistent on the length of tape (there always seems to be one every year), you could take one apart, measure it's length, try to determine where the EOT is, find the percentage of the tape up to that point and use this as a general rule for all other tapes. Of course to know for sure you are going to have to take apart all tapes and measure each one just to be sure. Having never actually tried this, I can only assume that winding the tape back in to the cartridge could be a real bear.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Checking to see if millions of files are backed up?
Why not have a script that runs a backup followed by an archive. Check the error code of the backup, if is not 0 then don't run the archive. If it is 0 then run the archive which will automatically delete the files when it completes successfully. It will not delete antything if it fails even with a 1.

If it was a UNIX client I'd say check the bp.conf file for the SERVER setting, but for a Windows client I believe this is set in the registry and is usually done at install time. For the registry stuff I don't know exactly the location, but if you run regedit on the Windows client and do a search (F3) and search for the string SERVER using match case. It will be under the LOCAL/SOFTWARE branch called VERITAS, if you can find that then search from there. Check the registry leaves called SERVER and/or MEDIA_SERVER. The SERVER one should be set to the hostname of the Netbackup server. I suspect one of these is incorrect. Maybe before you do this make sure that the Netbackup server hostname and IP address can be correctly resolved from the client. Hope this helps.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Two Netbackup questions
I've got two questions which I'm trying to find some info on. I
understand this might not be supported but
1) is it possible within netbackup to backup volumes on one server but
catalog them as belonging to another server entirely ? Example I have a
server called server1 drives F;G;H and I. I install a netbackup windows
client on this server and backup in the normal way. However I want
netbackup to catalog it as belonging to server2. Should I ever wish to
restore this data is will be show as originating from server2.
2) is it possible to backup data via RSH from a client with no netbackup
client software installed ? So here's my theory. So on the media server
i can run a
rsh client dump 0f - /mnt/volume_name /tmp/test.dump
this gives me a unix dump file on the media server called test.dump.
What I want to do is something similar but get netbackup to write the
data to tape ie not create a local file. My understanding would be that
the remote dump process writes to the STDOUT then the netbackup job
would us it's STDIN as the input ( datastream ) and write this data to
tape.
Thanks in advance.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Frozen tape characteristics?
Point of clarification. The only differences between FROZEN and SUSPENDED: 1) Suspending has to be done manually 2) When all the images on a SUSPENDED tape have expired the tape will be re-used. Otherwise they are treated the same in that NetBackup will read from the tape if a restore needs it.

The full format of the bp_notify file names is: bstart_notify[.policy_name][.schedule_name] bpend_notify[.policy_name][.schedule_name] If the policy allows multiple streams, than the scripts will be called for each stream. To activate the scripts, move them to /usr/openv/netbackup/bin and be sure they are executable and they do not send output to STDOUT or STDERR, otherwise they will fail, as will the backup. If the scripts are going to take longer than 300 seconds to run, you will need to increase the timeout, see manual as I don't remember the parameter name. One more thing to keep in mind is that the file list of what is to be backed up is generated BEFORE the notify script is called and can not be changed by the bpstart_notify script.

Copy it it to /usr/openv/netbackup/bin
That's it - also thanks to Patrick reg. his hint on how to name that

It will get called for every stream.
Hm, okay. I now have a VERY basic script, which does:

This does many things: 1) They get my email address right (unless I type it wrong) :-( 2) They send an automated response that they received your email. 3) When the engineer responds, you will have his email address. 4) With an email you can explain technical aspects that the first line support wouldn't understand. 5) You have a written record of when you first contacted them and all the subsequent contacts.

I have dealt with numerous vendors and support. Like all vendors, who you get on the other line makes a huge difference as to the type of support you receive. i.e. I actually have received better Red Hat Linux support from HP versus directly from Red Hat. But in that same example I have had both good and bad experiences. Different people have different levels of experience and therefore you will receive different support depening on the level of expertise you have helping you. So far as support from Symantec / NetBackup, I have had some average support and I have had top of the line, really good support. In regards to having to wait for a call back, it really depends on the criticality of your case and the work load of the support engineers. I have to admit that I prefer support setup such that if you have an issue that you can get transferred to someone immediately, and that is an option (I believe?) with NetBackup if you have severity level 1 issue. Most of the issues that I have that require calling support have a call back within 2 hours and that has been acceptable. So far as value for using Symantec (Veritas) for support, it also depends on your environment. I just checked my configuration and we have over 853 clients of which 762 are Unique clients that are getting backed up on a regular basis. I would never want to support this environment if I didn't have someone like Symantec to back me up when I ran into issues. So far as the email and phone numbers, I have typically gotten verification from the support person on the number and email address that is on file to verify that it is correct. Not sure if they don't always verify this, but I have typically received verification.

A while back there was a thread going about how good/bad Symantec support is. I recently submitted and closed my first case (after solving the issue myself) and replied the following to their Technical Support Feedback survey. We didn't have Netbackup support here for many years, and only bought it to upgrade to 6.0. Considering my initial experience I can only hope it gets better (although that so far looks unlikely) or I've got a feeling we won't be bothering with support in the future. 4. You have indicated dissatisfaction with one or more of the case handling aspects. Please use the comment field below to provide specific examples. Where do I start? 1 - When I call I want to talk to a competent technician right away. Not wait 8 hours for someone to get back to me. What's the point of paying for 24x7 support if I'm not going to talk to someone right away? Does my 8 hour wait continue for 8 hours - 24 hours a day versus a 5x9 contract where I only burn 9 waiting hours a day? 2 - When I ask to be called back after hours at a specific number I want to be called on that number, not my desk because I don't work at 10:00PM. 3 - How many times do I have to tell the phone screener that my company's email address standard is not first initial, last name?!

Re: [Veritas-bu] Error 41 on one of 7 streams - RESOLUTION
I should have thought of it sooner, but it happens so infrequently. There is a problem with one of the mount points within the stream that failed. A find / hangs. Since this is basically what NetBackup does, the backup hangs and eventually times out. If I had logged in and done the find first I would have discovered this and not bothered any of you. However, having bothered you I thought I would let you know the solution, lest it should happen to you. BTW, the client is an HP-UX system, which are notorious (at least here) for this sort of hang.

[Veritas-bu] Backup networks
Does anyone have a similar setup? Separate backup network from clients in one location to media servers in same location, but the master server can only see the clients and media servers on the public network. This causes 41 errors, we have come up with different work arounds but all of them are hooey. Is there a clean solution to this dilemma? I know the real solution is to have one backup network for everything, but this is politically impossible at the moment. Any suggestions welcomed.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Oracle RMAN backups
I was under the impression that RMAN backups were supposed to have INFINITE retention and that RMAN took care of expiring the images, there by keeping the RMAN catalog in sync with the NetBackup catalog. Otherwise RMAN will think there is a good backup, but NetBackup has expired it, if the retention level is different than what RMAN expects. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

That is you can have a FULL backup schedule with retention period of 1 year and an INCREMENTAL backup schedule with retention of 1 month. This may be new in NBU 6, but I remeber in NBU 5.x, the retention period that was always used was that of Default-Application-Backup schedule. So in my NBU 5.0 environment, I have ONE policy for FULL Oracle backup with 1 year retention and ONE Oracle policy for INCREMENTAL backups with 1 month retention. Each policy has 2 schedules in it, one of those is Default-Application-Backup schedule, both schedule have same retntion period, i.e. for FULL Backup policy retention period for both schedules is 1 year and for INCREMENTAL policy retention period for both schedules is 1 month. So my question is, is it the same behaviour in NBU 6.0 for Oracle and SQL backups, or it has changed. THX Do you Yahoo!? Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!

Ok... so
three new media servers with 4 nics each are headed my way in the next few
weeks. That's 12 interfaces I've got to worry about! According to
the NBU Performance Planning Tuning Guide I should create DNS entries for
each interface, and add all interfaces to each server's bp.conf (or registry in
windows.) I'm going to get all these values setup and ready to go before
the hardware even arrives.

backup1-netc

So the
servers will all talk to each other across the various nics (by looking up the
server name) but how do clients know which IP to use? Many of those IPs
are going to be on a non-routed backend network, which several
clients will not have access to. How does the Master / Media server know
which nic to use to communicate with the client? Further, how do I tell
my jobs which IP to use?! For example, if I have 6 nics on 3 servers in
the back end will NBU automatically local balance between
them? Perhaps I should enable teaming? Any input on how this done
properly would be appreciated. Unfortunately the HOSTS file lookup method
we use now is unacceptable (and dumb) so I'll have to make this work properly.

RE: [Veritas-bu] Export and Import NetBackup configuration
Am I misinterpreting the original post? According to the manual, using bprecover with the -dhost option is supposed to allow recovery of the database to an alternate host. This is a snippet from the command manual. bprecover -dhost destination_host Specifies the host to which the selected catalog is restored. Normally, catalogs are restored to the host where the data originated (as displayed with the -l option). The -d option makes it possible to restore the catalog to another host. Caution Use the dhost option with EXTREME caution, since it can overwrite existing catalogs on the destination host. To permit recovery in case you unintentionally overwrite the wrong catalogs, you can move existing catalogs to a temporary directory on the destination host. The following NetBackup client software must be installed on the destination host: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd and /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/tar Note Do not specify -r all (or ALL) with -dhost when using this command. Either explicitly specify an image (for example, -r 2) or use the interactive mode (-r).

Does anyone have any idea why:
Bpclntcmd hn master_server_name (works)
Bpclntcmd ip master_server_ip_address (works)
But
Bpclntcmd pn (doesnt work)
This is driving me crazy. Naturally the backups fail.

FWIW, the Windows admin console in 6.0 reports the client version for
Windows clients. We are only running 6.0 at the moment so I don't know
if it will report the version for pre-6 clients.

Guess I'll report on the UNIX boxes (which seem to play OK with

Very annoying as to the untrained eye it would seem to be easy to ensure

RE: [Veritas-bu] Database backup scheduling with different retentions
In researching some answers to the original post I was reminded that most Oracle backups use an infinite retention level with RMAN managing the actual retention level. Does this ring any bells for anyone else, or am I getting senile in my old age. Regards, Patrick Whelan NetBackup Specialist Architect Engineering -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 19 January 2006 17:09 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu Subject: RE: [Veritas-bu] Database backup scheduling with different retentions I can answer for Oracle - I assume that the MSSQL would be similar. When your RMAN script runs, it sends data to the Netbackup Oracle agent. The agent, in turn, sends the data onto a Netbackup media server, to a particular policy schedule. In the RMAN script, you can specify the NB_ORA_POLICY and NB_ORA_SCHEDULE variables. These variables select which Netbackup (Oracle-type) policy schedule are used to recieve the data. Netbackup's retention of the data, therefore, is the retention period set on these application backup schedules. At the end of the retention period, therefore, NB will discard the images. If you want three different retentions, create three different schedules (it can be in the same policy). Have RMAN set the schedule variable appropriate to the type of retention you wish to select. This has nothing to do with retention periods set by RMAN within the RMAN scripts. RMAN can say keep this for a year and what it really is doing is keeping its info on those data blocks for a year. If it tries to restore an old image, it's going to request specific backup pieces from Netbackup. If NB's scheduled retention is less than RMAN's retention, there's a risk that RMAN will get a failure from NB - the images will no longer be in NB's image set. There's two ways to deal with this: 1. Set NB's retention to be the same (or more) than RMAN's retention periods. 2. Frequently sync RMAN's catalog against NB's catalog so RMAN stays current with NB's actual retained data. This is the most accurate but more complex.
