Tomer Gurantz commented on: Reboot options when installing SEP client

Sorry noone originally responded to your question, however I found it in a search and wanted to reply for others who find it too. In SEP 11.x the reboot options were more limited, however in SEP 12.1 the client reboot options are vastly ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Finding Unmanaged Computers

See the SEP 12.1 Implementation Guide under "Configuring a client to detect unknown devices." It should be a dedicated client with a static IP, the network threat protection technologies installed, and some other little things mentioned ...

When I browser to this I get the message "...the author of this page has restricted access to it." and no article. I sent an email to find out why.

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Clean up of logs on clients/media servers

This should assist you in resolving this issue... search for Robust Logging in the documentation for more information and detailed instructions. And use Technical Articles such as this: http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH125990. Perhaps the ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Clean up of logs on clients/media servers

Most newer components of NBU use Unified Logging, which controls log growth and size, and has simple commands for truncating these debug logs (see vxlogview, vxlogcfg, and vxlogmgr commands/man pages). That said, most of these components exist on ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: "Cancel & Save" Backup Cancel Option

If your policy is using Checkpoint Restart, and marking its progress every 15 minutes (default), then by 'pausing' the job (instead of cancel), and then restarting it later, you will restart at the last checkpoint (which is a point in ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: RDSM has encountered an issue with STS where the server was not found

The exact error I got from the Storage Server wizard was "RDSM has encountered an issue with STS where the server was not found: updateStorageServerConfig". In my case I checked for IPv6, which wasn't on these Window servers. This ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Symantec NetBackup 7 and firewalls

From what I've seen of NBU 7.0.1 and later, clients are starting to use (or attempt to use) the PBX port (1556), and specifically in the case of client-side deduplication, it may be required. I can't verify this through testing, so anyone ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: VTL issue

Just out of curiosity, since you are using the MHVTL, have you tried contacting the Author? He is listed (with emails) on the link page you posted, and is an employee of Symantec tech support in Australia. You also don't mention what version ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Storage Server Configuration Wizard: RDSM has encountered an STS error: ioctl failed (2060017)

Sounds great, Karlhungus. Note also, there is a tech Article out there which covers how to remove deduplication (e.g. in case you have a failed configuration and want to try again). It is covered ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Storage Server Configuration Wizard: RDSM has encountered an STS error: ioctl failed (2060017)

No, I have no ideas, but would make sure that the networking settings are all setup correctly (nslookup, ipconfig, hosts file, dns, etc) I didn't look in the tpcommand log for my problem, so can't tell you if the error is consistent ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Netbackup 7.0 deduplication storage pool not releasing space

Also very interested in the outcome of this one.

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Rosetta down?

For other employees who run into this: if on the Symantec network via VPN it seems to have a problem resolving the evevent.symantec.com address. Thanks Rob for the direct IP link, this works. Alternatively you can use the internal variants of ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Rosetta down?

Am I doing something wrong? Trying to go to any of these links fail (the last one is a guess from memory, as I'm not on an EV server ...

discussion comment 24 Jun 2010

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Rosetta down?

I asked this same questions a few years back... last I saw Rosetta working externally was 3 years ago. There was an internal link that used to work for it (but you had to type it manually; the link in the event viewer didn't get you there), ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Netbackup with GRT Features!!!!

In case anyone runs into this old post from a search or something, this article has a pretty good in-depth on GRT with Exchange (and caveats), dated Aug, ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Parameter to force PBX to only use a certain interface for communications

To answer js88699, I believe this value already exists in NBU: see technote http://seer.entsupport.symantec.com/docs/286152.htm. It looks like the REQUIRED_NETWORK setting in bp.conf (not sure what the equivalent would be in Windows since ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Storage Server Configuration Wizard: RDSM has encountered an STS error: ioctl failed (2060017)

Pay attention to the error code number... I've seen different ioctl error numbers mean different errors. Definitely the 32-bit versus 64-bit will cause this issue. However you will notice from this technote that the ioctl error code is ...

Tomer Gurantz commented on: Replication File System become RAW.

Hi freshmeat, I'd post this as a new issue. You might also consider contacting support.

Tomer Gurantz posted: Storage Server Configuration Wizard: RDSM has encountered an STS error: ioctl failed (2060017)

In playing a bit with Media server deduplication in NetBackup 7.0 GA, I have run into an issue where the Storage Server Configuration Wizard comes up with an error during the configuration phase, on Windows: database system error. RDSM has encountered an STS error: ioctl failed (206
