    Linux kernel 2.6 and nsrmmd

    Since I upgraded my networker server (7.1.3) to SuSE Linux 9.3, kernel 2.6.11 I got lots of log messages: kernel: program nsrmmd is using a deprecated SCSI ioctl, please convert it to SG_IO As far as I found out, I am not able to convert anything. Instead I seem to need a converted version of...

    nsrjb takes very long time

    Since upgrading our (linux) networker server from kernel 2.4 (SuSE Linux 9.0) to kernel 2.6 (SuSE Linux 9.3), nsrjb needs a lot of time for nearly any action, e.g. holmes:~ # nsrjb -v -n -l LTO-0001 setting verbosity level to `1' ------------- about 4 minutes waiting nsrjb: Looking at device...

    Syncing index and adv_file

    Well, ..., that's the problem. I don't know which save sets got lost. What I need is a check that looks up every save set in the index to see if it is still existent on the adv_file device. If not the ssid should be removed from the index. As a workaround I think I could remove all ssids...

    Syncing index and adv_file

    I ran into some filesystem inconsitencies on my adv_file device (about 1 TB data). I could repair the filesystem, but some data is lost. As a result, networkers index may contain references to records that don't exist any more. Is it possible to "repair" the online index to remove those references?

    Cloning savesets while running a savegroup

    Well, thank you 605 ... but how? Some more information: I have a Default savegroup saving to an adv_file device with a LTO jukebox assigned as clone device. A full backup runs about 10 hours with additional 12 hours for cloning. Automatic cloning is started not until the full backup has...

    Cloning savesets while running a savegroup

    Using adv_file devices, is it possible to start cloning of finished savesets while the savegroup is still running? It seems to be possible because networker could use the _AF_readonly device belonging to the adv_file device for cloning.

    Server side compression with adv_file device?

    OK, then ... ... I switched to client side compression. Regarding the amount of data that is saved on my adv_file, my impression is, that the data is stored uncompressed. So my question is: If I use client side compression, the client sends its data compressed over the network. But is the data...

    Server side compression with adv_file device?

    Hi, I am using an adv_file device for my backups, cloning them to tape. As the file device is not as big as it needs to be I want the backup data compressed. I know I could switch to client side compression, but is it possible to compress the data on the server side?

    Cloning and/or staging?

    No, I don't think/hope so. As far as I understand the structure of networkers index, one save set can have more than one cloneid. One for each copy. If I would delete a ssid (as in your posting), all copies of this save set would be deleted. But I just want to delete copies of save sets residing...

    Cloning and/or staging?

    This was a perfect idea, thank you very much! It solves nearly all my problems. The exact solution is: mminfo -r ssid,cloneid -q 'volume=the_disk,savetime<-4 weeks,copies>1' | tail +2 | sed 's- -/-' | xargs -t -n1 nsrmm -d -y -S

    Cloning and/or staging?

    Yes, I thougt about ... My file device in fact is a (software) stripe over two (hardware) RAID 5 "disks". Should be kind of reliable, but in the past we have had lots of trouble with the ide disks in the raids. So the chance of two disks of 12 crashing simultaneously is not too low ... The NW...

    Cloning and/or staging?

    Well, I think I read the manuals ... As you stated, I have two possibilies: 1.) stage oldest save sets if the disk fills up to a high water mark: In that case my save sets are only on the file device until it fills up to HWM. In my case this would last about approx. 4 weeks. So my disks have...

    Cloning and/or staging?

    Please help with the following configuration: I have a "big" LTO-library and a "small" file device. The file device is able to keep the backups of one month approx. The library should keep backups up to 6 month. I want my nightly backups go to the file device. But I don't trust the disks, so I...
