Hi all

i have a problem dublicating my GRT Backup for exchange to tape drives

the job ends with code 191

also having [Error bpduplicate(pid=6620) db_IMAGE() failed: database system error (220) ] in the job log

and

[22:18:57.671 [6800.6732] <32> extend_list_add_files: File: ../nbe_cat_image.cpp Line: 405: invalid input data, Function: NBE_CatImage::addNewNode

in bpdbm log

also

in admin log

The server have 50 GB Free Disk Space , only 70% of memory is utilized  , 15% of processor is utilized and 25 % of network is utilized during Dublication

so i do not think that it's resource allocation problem

note

http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH143796 does not apply to me (all my servers runs netbackup 7.0.1)

 

Please Help

 

this is the job log and for the bpdbm, bpcd and admin logs it's too large to be attached

I have same issue...

I've got same issue on 7.1.0.1  (EEB 2412409 installed).

Duplicationg GRT images does fail as above, and I cannot browse my mailboxes proper.

With NBU 7.0.1 on exch-server (7101 on master/medias) I couldn't browse any objects.

(Error after looong time, ERROR : database system error).

Now upgraded exch-server to 7.1.0.1, and can browse down to see the users, but cannot open their mailboxes. (samme error as above)

Support is engaged, we went through config. last week... and havn't heard anymore from them.

As we all are part of the product, we're in here to improve it.

Similar Issue - Partly Solved

I have had the same issue with a customer and this has been partly resolved by means of EEB's

It is casued by a bpdbm timeout of 5 minutes which was hard coded along with a similar bpcd issue.

EEBs are now available (or at least have been proivided to myself) for 7.1.0.1 and 7.1.0.2.

Due to using N5200 appliances as Media Servers (They are at V2 which actually reports as NBU 7.1.0.5) we have the Master at 7.1.0.2 and Exchange Clients at 7.1.0.1, both with the EEBs applied.

GRT backups work fine and do now expand properly in the BAR GUI, although each expansion can take up to 24 minutes. So 48 minutes before you get as far as seeing the e-mails.

However the duplication of GRT backups still fails with a 191 after exactly 5 minutes so we are investigating which timeout this relates to.

I will write back if we get this cracked.

The EEBs just contain the bpdbm and bpcd files.

EEB2486657 for 7.1.0.1

EEB2517601 for 7.1.0.2

Update

Hi All

The EEBs have resolved the issue - the bpcd gets installed on Master, Media and Client, the bpdbm gets installed on the Master

Basically, if it will take more than 5 minutes to read the information you may get this error - using the Media Server as the GRT Proxy Host will also help - using De-Dupe will make the error more likely

Also, if using a GRT Proxy Host for GRT duplications it MUST be a Windows server

To get hold of the EEBs

To get hold of the EEBs (Emergency Engineering Binaries) you need to log a ticket with support who will make them available to you should your issue match. The EEBs contains release notes about installation.

Master/Media NBU7.1.0.3 on W2k8 - VMware, SQL and Exchange agents, MSDP

OCA 7.1.0.3 on W2k8R2

PureDisk 6.6.1.2  + EEB20

but why this problem happens?

thanks Lee,

really I dont understand why that happend? everything here running fine and the problem happend out of sudden.. my configuration is as follow:

I am having two mailbox servers (clustered); mailbox01 and mailbox02. I am having a GRT policy that I use to backup individual mailboxes. for this GRT policy I created a storage unit DAG-GRT unit that contains two staging disks each disk is mounted ( connected) to its server (i.e. disk01 is connected to mailbox01 and disk02 is for mailbox02). when i run the GRT policy,backup  images are created successfully from both server to the staging disks, but duplication is always failing on mailbox02 disk; i.e. I can't relocate my mailbox02 image to tapes! meanwhile duplication is always successful for mailbox01.

master server is a Solaris 10 X64
NBU master server version: 7.0.1

clients version on mailbox01 and mailbox02: 7.0.1

appriciating your help anyone.

Has it ever worked for

Has it ever worked for mailbox02?

It may be that mailbox02 is just larger than mailbox01 to causes the timeout.

On the other hand maybe you have something specified wrong on the mailbox02 host properties?

Have you specified a valid mailbox name (preferably that relates to the NetBackup Client Service running on mailbox02)

Have you specified a GRT Proxy Host for mailbox02? If so is it a Windows Server? Does it have NFS installed etc.

If the duplication fails immediately then it is a configuration error, if it fails after about 5 minutes you need the EEBs

yes it worked before on

yes it worked before on mailbox02, and you are right; mailbox02 is approximately 20 GB larger than mailbox01 but I am not sure if the failure really happens after 5 minutes..when I run the duplication manually and go to the duplication "job monitor" I see  the following messages:

1- the duplication begins

2- requesting resource

3- mounting tape

4- bprm starting the file cataloguing

5- database system error 220

6- no image were succesfully processed

7- exit status 191

 

regarding the following questions :

1- "On the other hand maybe you have something specified wrong on the mailbox02 host properties?"

> i think that my files are similar for mailbox01 and mailbox02.. but to be sure about that..I can attach any file that can help, could you please tell me which files may help in here?

"Have you specified a valid mailbox name (preferably that relates to the NetBackup Client Service running on mailbox02)"

> backup were running fine before. so i dont think think we have an invalid maibox name

"Have you specified a GRT Proxy Host for mailbox02? If so is it a Windows Server? Does it have NFS installed etc."

> no proxy is used for our configuration

thank you again for your help mark

what appears to be a solution

dears,

many thanks for your help, we solved this problem without purchasing any upgrade license.. what would be your impression when you ask the customer to buy an upgrade license then this will never solve his problem :)...

anyway my solution was about following very closely logs generated in the /opt/openv/netbackup/logs/bpdbm. in this folder the error logs were telling me exactly that at the cataloguing phase when the duplication process was trying to catalogue the mailbox of a specific user it fails and generates the database error 220 then the duplication faisd with error 191.

for that we deleted the messages of this user and then we were able to run the GRT backup policy again.
