we run quite a few fibre transport media servers here, and they all have the qlogic card installed. at the time it was the only hba that would work in target mode, which is what is needed for this to work Cheers richs24 [yoda]

do you have open file backups enabled for this client? If so, then that will be what is causign the problem. Go into the host properties of the master server, look under clients and see if this client is listed. if it is, click on it, click on the open file tab and see if it is using vsp. if...

there are so many potential answers to this. do you only have 2 tape drives? are your storage units configured correctly? in theory, there is no reason why the duplicate job starts, but just stays queued waitign for the backup to finish. i take it that you have tested this when there are no...

how have you got your device set up? is it san attached or scsi? do you have any disk on the same bus? what you have to be careful of, is making sure that any disk devices are on different bus to your tape drives, otherwise any scsi reset sent to a disk, will also go to your drive as well...

Hi, i am having trouble backing a large(ish) netware volume. The volume itself is approx 220gb, netware 6.5, and the problem being, that every now and then the backup will get so far, and then restart. Has anyone seen this before cheers Ric Cheers richs24 [yoda]

Hi, i have been asked to do an upgrade of a master/media server from 3.4.1 to 4.5mp6. Is there anything that i need to be aware of? I am running on solaris 7. Will the pkgrm strip out all of my policies as well? Also, would you recommend staying at 4.5mp6, or moving on to version 5...

Hi, i know this isn't advice, but we are having the same problems as well. The only difference being, we are using Netbackup Enterprise vers 5mp1. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Rich Cheers richs24 [yoda]
