12 NBU 5.1mp6 master and media servers on AIX and an SL8500. We are seeing problems where NBU and ACSLS are not communicating properly and leaving tapes in the drives. What shows as mounted in ACLS does not always match what NBU shows, but sometimes they agree. Most commonly happens while...
We just installed our first 2 64 windows clients and on the Host Properties/Clients window the server shows up as Windows Server 2003 5 but under OS Type it shows as UNIX. I'm not able to configure my client properties since UNIX properties show up instead of Windows Properties. I can't find...
I just discovered that my Shadow Copy Components are all 0 byte files on my backups. When I restored a domain controller there was NTDS. I started checking regular servers and they all show 0 bytes. Any idea?
Does anyone have a recommendation for a degausser that will erase an LTO tape? I understand they are a higher coercivity than DLT and require a stronger degausser but I'm getting myself confused with exactly what I do need.
Our windows AD environment is now called na.co.int and all intel boxes have a DNS search order
na.co.int
co.org
Our AIX boxes are still configured in the co.org domain.
So, bpclntcmd commands and nslookups return different domain name information depending upon whether we run them from a...
Any ideas? We moved the data off a media server (with failing disks) to alternate hardware (without fibre cables). So, we made it a mere client while we wait to get the old (out of warranty) hardware replaced. But we're getting this error message on the restore attempts. I've selected the...
I've installed a gigE card and have these two device drivers but I do not get the 1000 full option through smit and my command line dev change is rejecting. What am I missing?

I've been working on a strange configuration to restore a system and can provide details if needed but does anyone know of why I am getting this error message?
At one location my storagetek l700e and windows master sees the media id and barcodes as AX1001 or IS1001. At a second location with an hp msl6030 and aix master the same tapes are seen as media id 1001L1 and 1001L1 but the barcodes show up as AX1001L1 and IS1001L1.
Obviously this means half...
Location 1: Windows Master, AIX media server, backup image.
Lacation 2: AIX Master, AIX client, needs location 1's image restored.
I need to restore an AIX image from location 1 onto another AIX server at location 2.
I know that catalog files are not compatible between windows and aix...
I recently set up a new unix master server in California. While there are hands on people onsite we still manage the environent from DC. From my desktop I run the JAVA GUI to monitor the backups but the times are showing EST instead of PST. It's awfully confusing! Any ideas on why or how to...
We're having trouble pushing the client updates from the windows master server to the windows clients. It takes more than 10 minutes versus 5 minutes to log on directly to a client and perform the install from a network drive. Any suggestions on what to look for as the problem?
App Developer asked me, AIX admin, how to tell if the evaluate command exists in my version of cobol. How do I figure this out? Also, he asked me to explain to him how to get into cobol? I don't even know what that means :-) Can anyone out there provide me with some help? THANKS
I've just realized that the AM details tab on catalog backups consistently show a 35-45 minute time delay when timestamping the start of bptm. Is this normal? The regular backup jobs show bptm starting more quickly.

I configured a robot for vault but when I try to create a new vault that option is grayed out. Did a miss an important step somewhere earlier?
Thanks,

I have an image on tape. The image shows up in the restore window. An images on tape report for the tape shows the correct image name. BUT when viewing the list of media in the library the tape itself shows up as unassigned! The restore fails with an error about reading the header block of...
I'm adding my 13th AIX media server. The first 12 are SAN media servers, which only back up themselves. This one is a regular media server, which can back up clients. The other servers were created in NBU versions 3.4 and 4.5. This is the first server I'm creating in version 5.1 and I'm...
