how to move/import backup images between masters servers

$

I do not need a solution (just sharing information)

Hello

We are running two environments of Symantec Netbackup 7.5.0.6 on windows server 2008 R2 SP1.

Each environment is contained on different master and medias servers, but they have a network connection shared between them.

Sometimes, I need to restore from a certain enviroment to the other one. In order to perform this request I usually used to create a new disk pool on the destination enviroment that is actually the same disk on the source enviroment. Then, I used to copy the following directory from the source enviroment :

installation_path\veritas\netbackup\db\images\client_name

that includes information of the backup.

To the destination evniroment, also the same path:

installation_path\veritas\netbackup\images\source_client_name.

eventually, after finishing all these steps I tried to look for the images on the catalog on the destination master server and I could see the source_client_images and start the restore.

Unfortunatly, I tried to do this again but its not working me anymore.

Please advise.

Thank you.

I need a solution

Hello All,

I am facing a Problem in my NB environment. One of my windows 2008 R2 media server is not detecting Dell PTL.

Scan -changer giving me no output neither tpautoconf -r .

However tpautoconf -t is showing all tape drives. We have reinstated the OS too still PTL is not visible.Need technical help with steps to perform.

Issue:-Some actions done on Media Server:

-          Presenting on LUN on the four HBA ports not used by the drivers of the library,

-          This LUN was visible on the height path,

-          So the MPIO (Microsoft) tools has been activated,

-          Then a reboot was required, reboot done and the LUN was visible only once,

-          After that all the drive was still available but the library was not accessible.

Once the problem come we have deactivated the MPIO  feature and unmapped the LUN. But unfortunately the library still not visible.

The O/P of Scan -Changer is empty.

We have Reinstall the OS and Netbackup too.But the same issue.

Can any one help me in this.Its really very urgent and a Big issue for us.

Remove Media Server in Master Server Netbackup

I need a solution
Hello everyone,
 
I have a big problem that I need to remove my media server from the master server of my Netbackup Appliance 5220.
 
I checked and saw a TECH decomission would remove via command line and move all the images if you have to master.
In my case I have the NetBackup Appliance and extensor disk not use tapes.
I have nothing to transfer the media to the Master.
 
What I need to do is remove everything that has reference of my media because I will not have.
 
When I try to remove Disk Pools, Media Server, it does not remove, it just gives the error that can not be removed "Unknown exception message (Status 193)".
 
Outside the tech below I consulted someone would know something else I need to do to remove?

What is the best practice to backup an Exchange server or a SQL or even Domain controller (AD).

Actualy I'm backup them with VMWARE (Flashbackup-Windows) policies.

 

Someone told me that the Flashbackup-Windows isnt supported by Microsoft for Exchange, SQL etc. and that we should install the NB Agent instead to backup the VMDK (Snaphot) block level.

 

I'm using Netbackup 7.5.0.5

 

Thanks


NBU Java Admin Console

I need a solution

I run the Java Admin Console from my local machine.  I don't use the Windows Admin Console or jnbSA.  I've noticed that when there is no activity (backups/duplications/restores) if I click on any completed job, it comes up blank.  The console then gives me some sort of timeout error and I have to hit the refresh button.  Has anyone else experienced this?  I've seen it in 6.5.x, 7.0 and now 7.5.0.6.  As long as backups or any other activity is happening Activity Monitor is fine.

Dropped an LTO tape.  What is the recommended or best practice for this?  After I verify it is not broken via a visual inspection what do other admins do?  I heard that I need to duplicate the tape and then discard the dropped one?   Re-tension the tape (the person was not familiar with LTO not needing this),

I am wondering what Symantec recommends or what the other backup admins out there do.

Hello

After an unplanned shutdown of the media servers running the MSDP

We some times see

C:\Program Files\Veritas\pdde>crcontrol --queueinfo

Just not answering and no entries in the spad and spoold log

Wondered if there was another place to see if the MSDP was running some internal job

Know I can solve it by restarting the spad & spoold processes, but don't want to interrupt any internal jobs
