Biografía:

I started working for a Veritas reseller in 1999, being a Solaris System Administrator up to this point in time. Having to support customers, I had to learn the traditional Veritas products - NetBackup, Volume Manager, Cluster Server.
Like other TA's I stumbled across the forums looking for answers and ended up answering more questions than finding answers. I nevertheless still learn from fellow users every day.
I live west of Johannesburg in sunny South Africa, close to my grown-up son and daughter. I love gardening, photography, getting out into Nature....

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: Problem backup with Oracle 11 on Oracle Linux

OK - no comms errors. This is what I see in bprd log: bkarfiles: User backup failed (client = sv-ora15-p.domain.local user = oracle group = oinstall): system error occurred add_msg_to_progress_file: Can't become user oracle and group ...

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: Netbackup drive going down randomly

I agree 100% with revaroo. You need to enable verbose logging and check /var/adm/messages. This message says that there is a comms issue between the device and OS: timed out after waiting 850 seconds for ready, drive 1 When the ...

Hi All Thank you for all the advice, pointers, assistance, etc.. etc... I think Jakob is correct - my gut feel is that we are dealing with resource contention on the Exhange Server. This is what we did yesterday afternoon: Uninstalled NBU ...

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: Problem backup with Oracle 11 on Oracle Linux

Comms for file system backups work different - there is no connection that is initiated from the client directly to the master. Your master is resolving client's IP address as FQDN: sv-ora15-p.domain.local. How is hostname defined in ...

Use UNC path, not drive letter. Also check that NBU Client Service is started with Domain admin account with sufficient permissions. See Backup Network Drives in NBU Admin Guide I.

When the virtual tape is full on the local VTL and replicate on the remote VTL i delete it on the locate VTL. Please explain what is done from NBU point of view? Does NBU still see media id as belonging to local robot number and ...

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: NBU client connectivity problems

Is there any reason why your client is still on 6.5? Connections on 6.5 is attempted on 13724 (vnetd) while 7.x will first attempt connection on 1556 (pbx), if that fails will try 13724. See http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH136090 To ...

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: client failing with status code 58 using 1of4 media servers

NBU 6.x use vnetd (13724) for server -> client connection. See NetBackup 6.x and 7.x firewall port requirements http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH136090

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: Speed diffrence in NBU 6 and 7.5

Your vendor was probably talking about NetBackup Accelerator - a feature that is built into NBU dedupe. So, if you don't have NBU Media Server dedupe or Appliance, you cannot enable Accelerator and will not see a difference. See this ...

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: Exchange snapshot takes 2 hours

Dyneshia, I hear what you are saying about consistency check. We are trying to figure out what is causing the long delay between successful snap prepare and snap create. There are no VSS errors in Event Viewer - just the messages as per my post ...

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: Exchange snapshot takes 2 hours

This is standalone Exch server - no DAG, no GRT. Exch 2010 backup policy must have snapshot option selected in the policy attributes as Exch2010 does not support streaming backups. Weird thing is that backups worked perfectly on previous server ...

Thanks Jakob We have found the same issue as per my post above. There were not that many files in netbackup\temp but millions in online_util\fi_cntl. Customer renamed the folder, created a new, empty folder and then deleted the ...

Thanks Ankit! Which NBU version and patch did you install? No VSS hotfixes were installed?

This is a user forum, meaning that nobody here can supply you with eval license keys. You need to contact your local Symantec reseller who will be able to assist you. http://partnerlocator.symantec.com/

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: Oracle DB performance hit during Daily Full Backups

I would like to know what will be the maximum value to get better performance. This type of question should best be asked in an Oracle forum. PS: You are now logging onto Connect with a different user id?

Marianne van den Berg ha añadido un comentario a: Synthetic Backups block grayed out.

This is exactly what I was asking on 17 May: Have you added Full and Incr schedules before trying to ad Synth Full schedule? All of these schedules must exist in the same policy.

Things are actually worse this morning.... We have disabled the consistency check in an attempt to actually get some backups through. Backup for 3 DBs was still busy creating snapshot after 3 hours! bpfis showed success snapshot preparation, ...
