Hi,
I am currently trying to plan an upgrade of our whole Netbackup environment which consists of the following:
A master server and 2 Netbackup 5220 appliances at one site (site A).
A master server and 2 Netbackup 5220 appliances at another site (site B).
All versions of Netbackup are 7.6.0.1 (or 2.6.0.1 for the appliances).
Both sites conduct their own backups for the clients at that site and then replicate the images to the other site via AIR (site A replicates to site B and vice versa).
I wish to upgrade the whole environment to 7.6.1.1 and was wondering the best way to do it whilst minimising downtime etc.
For example, can I upgrade site A one week and then site B the next week or will the appliances being on different versions for a week affect replications?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks,
Ade

Hi Experts,
We have one master server windows 2008 and 8 drives.
8 drives are visible on OS level and working fine.
We are experincing issue with the Drives 1 or 2 drives are taking too much time to mount tapes. Its an intermittent issue. Sometimes all 8 are working perfectly fine. We observed its not only a particular drive but if all 7 drives are working 1 of them is not mounting tape due to which backups are in queue and after half an hour it mounts the tape and all drives start working.
In scan -changer command on master server it shows all the 8 drives with serial number.
However scan command also shows all 8 drives with serial number and on specific each drives there are only 5 drives. Is there any issue?
or if scan -changer shows all the 8 drives is it ok? if its ok then why scan command is showing 5 drives( Indivudual details of the drives ) after showing all 8 drives ?
It is not clear what Netbackup is trying to tell me when I get an error 96 followed by success 0. Can anyone explain?
Thanks,
-Mike

Hi,
I have some server didn't complete the backup and I receive ''socket write failed (24)''.
If I look inside the log I have this information: ''ERR - Cannot write to STDOUT. Errno = 110: Connection timed out''
The connexion are good between client server and master. The full Backup are good but not the Differential Incremental Backup.
My client server is Linux Redhat 2.6.18 and my master is SunOS(5.10) version 7.5.0.6
What do you think ?
It's possible to put a trap for to see what happen during the backup ?
Thanks,
Our backup server is NBU Enterprise Server, 7.6.1.1 running on OEL 5.10 (x86), on a Dell R620 server and Dell PVTL 2000 (2 x LTO5 drives), each drive connected via 6Gps SAS interface to NBU server.
We have two Exchange 2010 servers, each DB over 420GB. I put in place a Windows 2008 R2 proxy server to handle the duplication of images from disk (BasicDisk) to tape. We need the GRT option as we need to recover items at a message level.
What has been erratically happening is that duplication jobs fail with a 191 status and the dreaded:
04/23/2015 09:08:17 - Error bpduplicate (pid=828) db_IMAGE() failed: database system error (220)
04/23/2015 09:08:17 - Error bpduplicate (pid=828) Status = no images were successfully processed.
04/23/2015 09:08:17 - Error bpduplicate (pid=828) Duplicate of backupid exch2_1429750827 failed, database system error (220).
04/23/2015 09:08:17 - Error bpduplicate (pid=828) Status = no images were successfully processed.
So... been going back and forth with support and for some reason, today I looked at the Application Log on the proxy server and found:

Any ideas as to why nblbc would crash?
Hello everyone.
We have a Data Domain, model 4500 and we try to use DD Boost for Symantec NBU. But in this moment the configuration on the media servers has an issue. This is the problem:
Our media server send the data over the LAN, this is because each server can't use the FC, we like to know if exist any restriction when NBU use a media server with OS on aix 7.1. The data in this moment is send over administration interface, 1 GBps, this is very slow.
We don't have 10 gigabit ethernet.
I really appreciate any information, recommentation or help to solve this issue.
I have a doubt, can I configure a SAN Client and send the data over FC? This client could be on any version of OS?
We use:
NBU 7.6.0.2 on the master and media server.
Management wants to know what exactly is being restored for each priority restore. For instance, we restored a directory and want to find out all the files/folders under this directory that were restored. Just want to ensure I have the correct way to get this info from the logs for future restores.
Is this info from the master logs or client? I know on the master I have read on other posts to grab it from the bpbkar log directory (verbose L5). Or on the client, create these 3 logs: bpinetd, bpcd, and tar, but this seems to capture connection logs.
Steps before restore:
Ensure the bpbkar directory is created
Turn logging up to L5
Begin restore
Turn logging down after restore completes
Let me know if I have something wrong.
Thanks
Hi All,
One of our customers wants to install another Netbackup on their environment to backup other servers. They already have an existing netbackup v7.6 but its located on other server farm. Its a capacity based licensing, so as far as i know, they still haven't reach their capacity
So they want to install a NBU Master on a Cent OS v6. I'm planning to install NBU 7.1 on the CentOS 6, since based on NBU SCL, only NBU 7.1 is available to install as a master server. Can I use their NBU v7.6 license on NBU v7.1? are there any conflicts?
Please provide me a direct link to where to download NBU 7.1
Thanks
Hi,
We are using AIX 7.1 server and Netbackup 7.5. Only root user has access to Netbackup for backup and recovery. Root umask is set at 027, by right this would prevent any netbackup files generated to have the world writable format. However we found a few CatalogBackup.lck files which have a world writable file format in /usr/openv/netbackup/db/images/... directory. Could anyone help to suggest a permanent solution for this, since our audit requirement would not allow any world writable file.
Thank You.
Hi,
kindly guide me detailed steps for upgrading from 7.5.0.7 to 7.6 as i check with my fileconnect i could see 7.6.1.
so can i upgrade from 7.5.0.7 to 7.6.1? or first 7.6 then 7.6.0.1 ?
please suggest me for the same.if possible share me link to download 7.6 setup.
Dear All,
Currently our environment as below:-
1. NetBackup Master Server
- Windows 2008 Std R2
- NBU version 7.6.1.1
- Local disk, configured as advance disk as backup destination
2. NetBackup 5230 Appliance
- act as media server for the above master server.
- firmware 2.6.1.1
- deduplication pool/stu
We plan to migrate the advance disk data to the deduplication pool. Any tools or suggestion or method which you guys can share?
Or maybe some of you guys out there has already have experience in doing this activity?
Thanks! :)
Hi All,
I need your inputs on one of the issue I am currently facing related to scheduling.
Setup:-
Master Server [linux 2.6]
Media Server [Linux 2.6]
NBU Version [7.6.0.4] on both master and media server.
Admin console installed on [Windows 2008 R2 enterprise Machine]
Issue:- I need to understand which time would the backup schedules follow. I am configuring the backups through an admin console installed on a windows machine and the machine is located in EST. However the actual master and media server are located in CST time zone. Now when i configure the backup policy through an admin cosole which is installed on a windows machine located in EST time zone. Which time zone would my policies would follow.
Options
1) MASTER SERVER time zone which is CST
2) Admin console Server which is EST.
I am bit confused as I see schedules running or triggerening at a random time and hence i am confused. Please let me know your suggestions.
Hi,
I have upgraded from Symantec Netbackup 7.6 to Avamar 7.1 Grid without any major problems. However I have some difficulties to parse the pre and post Netbakup scripts for Avamar.
I need to work out how to convert those NBU scripts for AVM. In fact, I look for a solution that allow AVAMAR to behave similar to the Netbackup pe/post processing scripts ..
Although I understand EMC forum is the best place to search for this kind of solutionn, I will appreciate if someone can help me to get around how to pass parameters /variable into the avamar command line or configuration file.
Kind Regards
Why we set robot path to one of the drive in tape library and how we can check on which drive that path is set from master server cmd on AIX. And what will happen if that drive gets faulty and what we needs to do. Do we need to reset that path to other working drive meanwhile it gets replaced and do we need to configure the drive again or anything else we can do.
Robot is under master server control on Aix.
Looking for steps of command for Aix platform rather than gui interface.

Hi guys,
i have a backup environment with
1. Master Server:
OS: RHEL 6.6
NBU version: 7.6.1
2. Media Server:
NBU 5230 appliance
Version: 2.6.1
This is a newly build environment with no backup images (production). Only some test images are there.
My problem is that, i need to change the hostname of both the Master server and the media server.
one option is to rebuild the whole thing from scratch but i dont want to do it again as this environment is almost ready for production and most probably, it has to go to production by end of next week.
i know that changing a master server name is a job of Symatec authorized consultant. But in my case, there is no catalog/backup images to work with.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.
