JohnDW commented on: SEP 11.0.5: Error during replication "during zipping the data file"

Yes, this is the link to DocID 2008031204405448 (I should have pasted the link myself). But Symantec isn't really providing a solution to the "How do I move..." question here, if you can only do it once... John

JohnDW commented on: SEP 11.0.5: Error during replication "during zipping the data file"

Aravind, Despite the "master SEPM" limitation it would still be easier to migrate via replication, if someone from Symantec Support will help me solve my original "during zipping the data file" replication problem. There ...

JohnDW commented on: SEP 11.0.5: Error during replication "during zipping the data file"

An update (since I can't edit my original post): Browsing the SEPM install directory I found [SEPM]\data\replication\outbox\AEC010D3C0A80001017343C73B078ABC\data.zip whose size is about 500mb -- the same as daily backup ...

JohnDW commented on: SEP 11.0.5: Error during replication "during zipping the data file"

Zubeb, Thanks for the suggestion. I had wondered if that was the problem, but I don't think so. SEPM is installed to D:, which has 30gb free, and the database is only 650mb. The nightly backup creates a 500mb zipfile on D: without ...

JohnDW commented on: SEP 11.0.5: Error during replication "during zipping the data file"

Aravind, Thanks for the warning on using Replication. It was sometime last year that I used this, and I don't remember reading this warning at the time. [Edit: I just went back to my original source for the replication ...

JohnDW commented on: SEP 11.0.5: Error during replication "during zipping the data file"

Visu: Sorry for any confusion. Last year I used the same procedure at different site, to migrate from Win2003 x86 to a new Win2003 x64 server. In that case the procedure worked smoothly, so I didn't expect any problems here. If ...

JohnDW commented on: SEP 11.0.5: Error during replication "during zipping the data file"

Prachand: Thanks for your reply. However, the details for the articles you suggest don't match the error that I'm getting in the notification error on the source server. My search of the support docs for my "zipping the data file" ...

JohnDW commented on: SEP 11.0.5: Error during replication "during zipping the data file"

Grant: Thanks for your reply. However, the first article was what sent me to look at the notification area on the source server, where I found the "failed during zipping the data file!" message (rather than a Java heap space ...

I need a solution (I've been waiting almost 2 days for a response on my support case. Perhaps someone here has an answer?) I have SEPM 11.0.5 running fine on Win2003 x86 (20 clients, Sybase DB). I must migrate ASAP to a

I just PM'ed you my case number. Thanks for taking up this issue!

JohnDW commented on: Deleted Clients "failed to update"

I also contacted Symantec support about it, who had me uninstall and reinstall LU (which caused other issues without solving the problem). Eventually I was told it was a known "cosmetic defect", with the only workaround being to ...

JohnDW posted: Deleted Clients "failed to update"

I need a solution I just upgraded an MR2 MP2 server to MR3. The 21 clients also updated. I deleted the MR2 and MR2 MP2 install packages from SEPM, but now every time LU runs (for SEPM) it reports that the MR2 and MR2 MP2 clients

Update: An after-hours server restart solved the problem. But what caused the restart to be required??

I need a solution I have BE 12.0 running on Win2003 SP2 x64 (single server, no agents). It's been working fine for months. But today I found the UI not responding and I had to End Task. When I tried to re-run the U

JohnDW posted: System Notification shows only "Nothing to Report"

I need a solution Can anyone tell me why my System Notifications almost always show only "Nothing to Report"? This certainly has been an issue with MR2, but I'm sure it goes back to MR1 and RTM too. Upgra

JohnDW posted: LU error after deleting client package

I need a solution I recently upgraded from 11.0 MR2 to MR2 MP2, after which I deleted the MR2 x64 client package in SEPM (especially since we have no x64 clients). Some time after this I started getting System notifications (all

JohnDW commented on: "Nothing to report" in Virus definition not update email notification.

Hello, I upgraded from MR2 to MR2 MP2 to try your solution, but after deleting and recreating the notification I'm still getting "Nothing to Report" emails. When I check the System Logs I can see that each of these "Nothing to ...

A Symantec tech worked through this issue, and eventually got the BEServer service to work by a Repair+Rebuild+Dump+Compact+Age+Check of the DB. I thought this had solved the problem.BUT the BEServer service won't stay running. I started a tape ...
