I have been successfully backing up a file server with several drives for months now. But recently one of the drives has been failing with an error message of:

Cannot connect to Media Agent on system xxxxx, port 57804 (IPC Cannot Connect System error: [10061 Connection refused) => aborting.

The rest of the drives backup fine.

any ideas what might be causing this?

thanks.

[12:10907] Invalid format of detail catalog binary file.

≪ Previous: Cannot connect to media agent error

After update to HP Data Protector 9.0 build 87 from version 6.2 there is an error while pointing to restore object which locates on deduplication storage (StoreOnce software deduplication).

[12:10907] Invalid format of detail catalog binary file.

DC binary file that contains the data needed to browse the backup history is not in the expected format. You can browse the backup history but you will not see those versions of backed up files that were stored in that specific DC binary file. Typically this error indicates that the CDB part of the Internal Database and the DCBF part of the Internal Database are not consistent or that the binary file is corrupted. The debug.log file contains more details on which specific DC binary file in not in correct format.

* Recover the corrupted DC binary file by executing the following procedure: 1) Stop all sessions and close all GUIs. 2) Remove the corrupted binary file. 3) Run omnidbutil -fixmpos command from the CLI. 4) Find and run "Import catalog" for the correct medium. Note that the debug.log contains the medium ID of the file and that you can use omnimm -media_info <mediumID> command. See the online Help topic "Overview of IDB Recovery Methods" or chapter "Recovering the Data Protector Internal Database" in the HP Data Protector Administrator's Guide for more information on the recovery procedure of the Internal Database.

Omnidbcheck is OK.

We are having issues backing up several file servers due to the large number of small files. We are currently backing up our file server by using file system backups. These backups take days and then fail due to timeouts. My qustion is anyone else having these type of issues. We have a case open with HP but all they want are debugs and its been about a month with no solution. Also is there a better option to use other then file system backups for file servers?

Dataprotector strange behaviour

dataprotector

Product Version A.09.00
Internal build version 100

I´am dealing with an strange behaviour for the last four days.

The dataprotector console hangs doing some tasks, for instance, when trying to restart failed ojects. I can see that the omnirpt.exe takes 50% CPU and the backup never starts.

there are many people that manages the server. Everyone has reported a very bad performance on the dataprotetor console (on remote consoles same behaviour); almost every time it ends in an app hang/crash (the "not responding" message from windows session)

Yesterday I noticed four bdsm.exe processes were taking 100 cpu usage.

I´ve been googling but can´t find any clue. for the last weeks we have been trying to restore from an anual backup tape and I´ve seen the IDB growing.

Scheduled backups are working properly. the problem is that almost any human triggered task makes the console hangs, then crash and none of them are really performed.

Any idea about this iisue? Can a huge internal database decrease the server performance in this way?

Thanks in advance

≪ Previous: Backup size on lto 5tapes

Hi,

I have a question about the backup of NAS.
I'm using date protector 9 in windows environment.
I have a MSL4048 with two drive LTO5 fc directly attached.
I have to back up to 4 EMC NAS.
Unfortunately I do not have the NDMP agent so I will have to be backed up as a network share.

The size of the backup on my nas are these:

nas1 1.4 TB
nas2 0.9 TB
nas2 0.5 TB
nas4 0.8 TB

My question is the following:

What is the best and fastest way to backup the 4 NAS?

it is better to make a backup specification and attach all the NAS to only one host?

it is better to make a backup specification and attach 2 servers for 2 NAS (2 NAS to one other 2 NAS to another server)?

it is better to make a backup sepcification and attch the 4 NAS to the cell manager?

Thank you

greetings

≪ Previous: DP 6.2 2003 P to V

First -- Yes, I know DP 6.11 is old. I don't have a lot of control over that as this is part of a customer project.

On to the issue:

I am working on a project where I am attempting to restore a DP 6.11 IDB. Once the IDB has been restored the RDS service is constantly in the "starting" state if I look at the service and is "Down" in the 'omnisv -status' output.

The source DP 6.11 server is a Windows 2008 64-bit.

The destination server is running Windows 2003 32-bit.

Could that be part of my problem? Will I run into issues if restoring the IDB from a Win2K8 64-bit system to a Win2K3 32-bit system?

If the answer is "yes" that this should work, then we can go down the path of trying to figure out why my RDS service isn't starting correctly.

Thanks!

IDB issue after upgrade form DP7.0 to DP 9.0

≫ Next: You can import the IDB DP6 for IDB version 9 ?

≪ Previous: Backup DR MS-Cluster

Hi,

After upgrade from DP 7.0 to 9.02, I see all services are up and running also IDB backup is successful, however following issues have been noticed.

1.IDB backup shows size = 1.5 GB which was 7.5 GB on DP7.0

2.When tried "omnimigrate.pl -report_catalog_migration" it does not display any progress or not changein DCBF directories (either DB40 or DB80).Also no errors reported.

Is DCBF migration a mandatory step? If yes, what could be the reason that there is no change after running the command omnimigrate.pl -report_catalog_migration.

What could be the reason for reduced IDB size after upgrade to DP9.0?

Any assitance will be highly appreciated.

Regards

≪ Previous: You can import the IDB DP6 for IDB version 9 ?

DP Gurus:

From reading through old posts, I've learned that DP was licensed based on IP address in the past. Is that still true today?

The company I work for recently purchased three racks (located in three different places) of two rx2800 i4 Serviceguard-clustered Integrity Servers (6 total Servers) running HP-UX 11i v3 with March 2014 patches. These Systems replace nine racks (located in three different locations) of three Serviceguard-clustered HP-9000 PA-RISC K-Series Servers (9 total). The old system runs Omniback on one of the Servers in each location. We have recently downloaded an Evaluation copy of DP 9.0. We have cloned the old System to create the new System. More specifically, we have used the same IP addresses, same hostnames, same network topology, etc. In effect, we dropped one of the Servers, and replicated the other two on the new Integrity Servers. Since the new Integrity Servers have the same IP addresses as the old HP-9000 Servers, and since we purchased Omniback in the past, do we have to pay any additional fees to make our Evaluation copy of DP 9.0 permanent...or do we just fill out the form with the same IP addresses and get permanent key for DP 9.0?

Thanks for the help.

Jeff Kolodziej
