My first post -- glad to be here! I have NetBackup 7.1 running on
WindowsServer 2008. I have a Catalog job set to run at 10a on business-days,
(Policy=Catalog Policy-Type=NBU-Catalog Schedule-Type=Full Backup). This
runs like clockwork just fine. However, about 2-3 times a week, and
I have new info from more investigations done this morning. We have a
netBackup 7.5 server that's acting just fine. We compared the two. The
NBU-Catalog backup and the Sybase backup are both being put on the SAME tape on
the 7.5 server. However on the 7.1 server, the two are being put on
To confirm, the 2 jobs that are running are bona-fide, and valid. On my 7.5
server, then both run, and write to the same tape. On my 7.1 server, about 60%
of the time, they run, but are put on seperate tapes. The catalog job has no
stream-related settings from what we can see. ---How can I
Thanks for posting.. It's weird that I can't answer that question. There's
only one catalog job that runs, and it is of type NBU-Catalog. The other
job that runs, that is of type Sybase is the mystery; we don't have any job
in our server that is of type Sybase. Therefore, how to I check
We've been all through the settings of the Catalog job, and compared it to the
7.1 server which is doing fine. No differences. that's the first thing we
checked. No where does it say that it's going to run a Sybase job, and there
are no settings for tape-reuse, and the settings for streams
