0
NetBackup status code: 19
Message: getservbyname failed

Explanation: A call to getservbyname() failed. The getservbyname()function uses the name of the service to find a service entry in the services file. (Or NIS
services map on UNIX if it is configured.)

Recommended Action: Do the following, as appropriate:
■ Check the NetBackup Problems report for clues on why the failure occurred.
■ On a UNIX or Linux system, check that /etc/services and NIS services map (if applicable) have entries for the NetBackup services: bpcd, bpdbm, and bprd.
■ On a Windows system, verify that the %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\services file shows the correct entries
for the NetBackup Internet processes: bpcd, bpdbm, and bprd.
Ensure that the following numbers match the settings in the services file: The NetBackup Client Service Port number and NetBackup Request Service Port
number on the Network tab in the NetBackup Client Properties dialog box. To display this dialog box, start the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface and
click NetBackup Client Properties on the File menu. The values on the Network tab are written to the services file when the NetBackup Client service
starts. See "Verifying host name and service entries" in the NetBackup Troubleshooting Guide.
■ Check the level of network activity. An overloaded network can cause this error.
■ If these actions do not reveal the problem, create a debug log directory for the process that returned this status code. Then retry the operation and check the
resulting debug log.

NetBackup status code: 20 (Invalid Command Parameter)

$
0
0
NetBackup status code: 20
Message: invalid command parameter

Explanation: One or more command parameters were not valid. This error can occur when incompatible levels of NetBackup are installed on a master and its media servers or clients. For example, a NetBackup master server has NetBackup 7.6 and the media server or the client has NetBackup 7.0. This error can also occur if the wrong parameters are used when you run a command line.

Recommended Action: Do the following, as appropriate:
■ Check the NetBackup Problems report for clues.
■ If the error occurs when you run a command on the command line, verify that the parameters are valid.
■ This status code may occur if nbjm passes parameters but does not have a required parameter. Check the nbjm unified logs (originator ID 117) for the list of parameters that were passed.
■ The following information pertains to NetBackup Snapshot Client.
■ If the following appears in the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/bptm log as enabled on a third-party copy backup, multiplexing was enabled on a third-party copy backup:


bptm: cannot perform Third-Party-Copy for multiplexed backups

send_brm_msg: ERROR 20

bptm: EXITING with status 20
The Third-party Copy Device off-host backup method is incompatible with multiplexing (the writing of two or more concurrent backup jobs to the same storage device). You must disable multiplexing for any third-party copy backups. If multiplexing is enabled, the backup fails.
■ The media server may not have the correct 3pc.conf file entry for the client
disk that is needed for the backup.
The following appears in the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/bpbkar log:
14:45:00.983 [15773] <4> bpmap_mm_get_devid: GET_DEVICE_INDEX 1

entity was found
14:47:33.168 [15773] <2> bpbkar Exit: INF - Close of stdout complete2>4>16>16>4>4>4>4>

 
This shows that a particular device cannot be found in the 3pc.conf file on the media server (14:47:02.031 [15773] <16> bpmap_send_extend: ERR - can't obtain device id string EMC:SYMMETRIX:601092014000)16>.

The problem is one of the following:

  • The 3pc.conf file on the media server is outdated. Recreate the 3pc.conf file.
  • The media server is not on the same Fibre Channel network as the third-party copy device and client disk. As a result, the 3pc.conf file does not have a correct entry for the client disk. Run the bptpcinfo command with the -x client_name option; this option adds the client disk to the 3pc.conf file. For each disk that is added to the file by means of bptpcinfo -x client_name, you may need to add the device’s World Wide Name (WWN=).
See the NetBackup Snapshot Client Configuration online document.
See Snapshot Client Assistance in the NetBackup Snapshot Client Administrator’s Guide.

■ The HP VxFS snapshot mechanism requires a dedicated cache partition for each snapshot. A check is made in the mount table to make sure that the cache partition is not already in use. If the cache partition is already in use, status code 20 occurs.
Check the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/bpbkar log for a message similar to the following:


bpfsmap: FTL - bpfsmap: snapshot cache already in use, /dev/arrayvg/vol4c
bpbkar Exit: ERR - bpbkar FATAL exit status = 20: invalid
command parameter
bpbkar Exit: INF - EXIT STATUS 20: invalid command parameter

 
If the snapshot cache partition is already in use, do one of the following: Set up your policy schedules to run at different times or use different cache partitions for each backup.
If the Allow multiple data streams option is enabled, each stream must have its own dedicated cache partition.
■ Compare the NetBackup version level on the server to the version level on the clients by doing the following:

  • On UNIX or Linux NetBackup servers and clients, check the /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/version file.
  • On Windows NetBackup servers, check the install_path\Netbackup\version.txt file or the About NetBackup item on the Help menu.
  • On Microsoft Windows clients, check the About NetBackup item on the Help menu.
  • If a Java interface displays the error, tell them how to enable the debug print manager in the Java startup file. Retry and compare the parameters that were logged on the Java log with the parameters listed in the commands usage statement.
■ For the Backup Media Server option for VMware backups, the storage unit that is specified in the policy must be unique to your media servers. If the storage
unit is also available on another media server, the snapshot job cannot succeed.
■ If these actions do not reveal the problem, create a debug log directory for the process that returned this status code (if the process uses legacy logging). Then
retry the operation and check the resulting log.

NetBackup status code: 24
Message: socket write failed

Explanation: A write operation to a socket failed.

Recommended Action: Do the following, as appropriate:
■ Check the NetBackup Problems report for clues on where and why the failure occurred. If you cannot determine the cause from the Problems report, create
debug log directories for the processes that could have returned this status code. Then retry the operation and check the resulting debug logs.
■ A possible cause is a high network load. For example, this problem occurs with Cannot write to STDOUT when a Windows system that monitors network load
detects a high load. It then sends an ICMP packet to other systems to inform them that the route they use is disconnected. The log messages were similar
to the following:


01/31/96 14:05:23 ruble crabtree.null.com from client

NetBackup status code: 25 (Cannot Connect on Socket)

$
0
0
NetBackup status code: 25
Message: cannot connect on socket
Explanation: A process that timed out while it connects to another process for a particular operation. This problem can occur in the following situation: when a process tries to connect to the NetBackup request daemon (bprd) or database manager daemon (bpdbm) and the daemon is not running. (On Windows, these daemons are the NetBackup Request Manager and the NetBackup Database Manager services.)
It can also occur in the following situations: the network or server is heavily loaded and has slow response time or an evaluation license key for NetBackup expired. However, the most common cause of this error is a host name resolution problem.


The following are other possible causes of this error caused by network connectivity
issues or a required process such as pbx_exchange not running.
nbjm is unable to connect to bpcd on the media server
nbpem is unable to connect to nbproxy
bptm on the media server is unable to connect to nbjm on the master server.
■ You cannot perform an immediate backup operation.


These errors are caused either by network connectivity issues or if a required
process such as pbx_exchange is not running.


Recommended Action: Do the following, as appropriate:
■ Verify that bpcompatd, vnetd, and Private Branch Exchange (PBX) are running.
Information on how to start PBX is available.
See "Resolving PBX problems" in the NetBackup Troubleshooting Guide.
■ If necessary, stop and restart NetBackup.
■On UNIX systems, enter the following:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bp.kill_all
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bp.start_all

 
■ On Windows systems, enter the following:
install_path\NetBackup\bin\bpdown
install_path\NetBackup\bin\bpup

 
■ The following information applies only to a UNIX or Linux NetBackup master
server:
Verify that the bprd and the bpdbm processes are running. If these processes are not running, start them. On a Windows master server, verify that the NetBackup Request Manager and the NetBackup Database Manager services are running. If these services are not running, start them. If these processes or services are running, examine the All Log Entries report for the time of the failure to determine where the failure occurred.
Do one of the following:
■ If you cannot view the report or you get a cannot connect on socket error, verify again that the NetBackup Database Manager service or daemon is running. Then, create a debug log directory for bpdbm, retry the operation, and check the resulting debug log.
■ If you view the report and do not find a problem-related entry, create the debug log directories for the related processes that were running when the
error first appeared. (This process frequently is bpbrm.) Then, retry the operation and check the resulting debug logs.
■ Verify that the server list specifies the correct master server.
■ The following information applies only to Windows systems:
The master server is designated in the Server to use for backups and restores drop-down in the Specify NetBackup Machines and Policy Type dialog box. To display this dialog box, start the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface and click Specify NetBackup Machines and Policy Type on the File menu.


■ The following information applies only to UNIX and Linux systems:
The master server is the first SERVER entry in the bp.conf file.
■ Check the following Veritas Support website to ensure that all recommended
NetBackup patches are installed: www.veritas.com/support
Then select NetBackup followed by files and updates.
■ If failure occurs when you run a user-directed backup from a client, make sure that a user-directed backup schedule exists at the master server.
■ With NetBackup database extensions:
Make sure that the applicable database product has the correct permissions allowing NetBackup to write to the progress log on the client.
■ The following information applies only to UNIX systems:
If bpdbm has quit when the shutdown script runs on a media server, carefully read the K77netbackup script. It contains details on how to prevent this problem. The script is in /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies.

If you change the server list on a master server, stop, and restart the following:
The NetBackup Database Manager and request daemons (UNIX) or the NetBackup Database Manager and NetBackup Request Manager services (Windows).
■ Check the services file.
■ The following information applies only to UNIX systems:
Verify that the /etc/services file (and NIS services if NIS is used) has entries for the NetBackup services: bpcd, bpdbm, and bprd.
On Windows, verify that the %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\services file has the correct entries for bpcd, bpdbm, and bprd.
Also, verify that the following numbers match the settings in the services file:
The NetBackup Client Service Port and the NetBackup Request Service Port on the Network tab in the NetBackup Client Properties dialog box. To display this dialog box, start the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface and click NetBackup Client Properties on the File menu. The values on the Network tab are written to the services file when the NetBackup Client service starts.
See Verifying host names and service entries in NetBackup in the NetBackup  Troubleshooting Guide.


■ On Sun Solaris, verify that all operating system patches are installed See the Operating Notes section of the NetBackup Release Notes.
■ On Windows, verify that the recommended service packs are installed.
■ When the base NetBackup license key expires, daemons (such as bprd and bpdbm) terminate on the NetBackup server. If these daemons are not running, you are likely to encounter status code 25 errors in the Administration console. Install a valid base NetBackup license key, restart the daemons, and restart the console.
■ For NetBackup Snapshot Client, the following applies: When many devices are configured on a media server, it may take a long time for the bptpcinfo command to generate the file 3pc. When the backup is run for the first time, the backup may fail with status 25. Make sure that the /usr/openv/volmgr/database/3pc.conf file exists. If it does, rerun the backup.
If the backup fails again, run the bptpcinfo manually to generate the file 3pc, then try the backup again.

NetBackup status code: 103 ( Error Occurred During Initialization, check configuration file)

$

0
NetBackup status code: 103
Message: error occurred during initialization, check configuration file


Explanation: NetBackup Snapshot Client can perform two kinds of off-host backups by means of a data mover: the NetBackup media server method or the Third-Party
Copy Device method. For either method, an off-host data mover backup requires a configuration file (the 3pc.conf file) to identify the following devices on the SAN:
■ The client disks to back up
■ The devices on which to store the data 


If the media server has access to many disks and storage devices on the SAN, it may take too long to acquire the device information from the SAN. As a result, if no 3pc.conf file exists on the media server, the first multistream backup that uses a data mover method may fail.

Recommended Action: Create the 3pc.conf file manually before running the first multistream data mover backup. Use the following command to create the 3pc.conf file:
# bptpcinfo -a
The 3pc.conf file is created at /usr/openv/volmgr/database/3pc.conf. More information is available on the 3pc.conf file and how to create it.
See Configuring NetBackup for off-host data mover backups in the NetBackup Snapshot Client Configuration document.

What's New in vSAN 6.6

$
0
0
vSAN is VMware’s industry-leading software powering Hyper-Converged Infrastructure solutions.

vSAN 6.6 enhances the industry’s most popular HCI solution with the first native HCI security, highly available stretched clusters, and 50% higher all-flash performance for business-critical and next-generation workloads.



Industry's First Native HCI Encryption
vSAN offers the first native HCI encryption solution for data-at-rest, protecting critical data from unwanted access. vSAN encryption delivers lower costs and greater flexibility by being hardware agnostic and by offering simplified key management. No more requirements to deploy specific self-encrypting drives (SEDs). vSAN encryption is also built for compliance with support for 2-factor authentication (SecurID and CAC) and is the first HCI solution with a DISA-approved STIG.

Stretched Cluster with Local Site Protection
New enhanced stretched clusters with local site protection provide protection against both site failures and local component failures at 50% lower cost than traditional solutions. With a comprehensive stretched cluster solution, you can extend the cost and simplicity benefits of HCI to your disaster recovery and business continuity needs.

vSAN Cloud Analytics
With vSAN Cloud Analytics, you can decrease operational costs with pro-active, real-time support notifications and recommendations. The analytics tool delivers custom, real-time alerts through vSAN Health Service with custom actionable insights and remediation recommendations.

Unicast Networking
vSAN now supports unicast networking to help simplify your initial vSAN setup. You can utilize unicast for vSAN networking and there is no need to setup multicast anymore. This enables vSAN to be deployed in a wider set of on-premise and cloud environments without requiring network changes.

vSAN Management Pack for vRealize Operations
The new vSAN Management Pack for VMware vRealize Operations Manager provides additional options for monitoring, managing and troubleshooting vSAN along with end-to-end infrastructure solutions. With the vSAN management pack, you can gain insights about the impact of vSAN in your infrastructure quickly, and bring your business greater efficiency in shorter time.

Always-On Protection with Enhanced Availability
With new always-on protection features, vSAN keeps your applications running and available despite potential hardware challenges. New Degraded Device Handling (DDH) intelligently monitors the health of drives and proactively evacuates data before failures can happen. New smart drive rebuilds and partial rebuilds deliver faster recovery during hardware failures and decrease cluster traffic for greater performance.

Intelligent Operations and Lifecycle Management
New intelligent operations and lifecycle management capabilities accelerate initial hardware setup, simplify software install, and deliver 1-click controller hardware lifecycle management for a more predictable hardware experience. You can reduce management time up to 80% for common tasks with 1-click automation.

Up to 50% Higher All-Flash Performance
Optimized data services further extend vSAN’s performance advantage by delivering up to 50% more IOPS per all-flash host versus previous versions of vSAN, enabling over 150K IOPS per host. The increased performance helps accelerate mission critical applications and provides higher consolidation ratios for workloads.

Support of Next-Generation Workloads
New validated architectures provide a proven path for deploying next-generation applications like Splunk, Big Data, and Citrix XenApp. In addition, vSAN for Photon is now available in Photon Platform 1.1 and a new Docker Volume Driver delivers support for multi-tenancy, policy based management, snapshots and clones.

Day 1 Support of New Hardware Technologies
Customers can accelerate new hardware adoption with Day 1 support of the latest flash technologies, including solutions like the new Intel Optane 3D XPoint NVMe SSDs. In addition, vSAN now offers larger caching drive options, including 1.6TB flash drives, so that customers can take advantage of the latest and larger capacity flash drives.

Certified File Services and Data Protection Solutions
The VMware Ready for vSAN Program enables customers to extend and complement their vSAN environment with proven, industry-leading data protection and file service solutions from 3rd party partners.

0
The NetBackup Key Management Service (KMS) feature is included as part of the NetBackup Enterprise Server and NetBackup Server software. An additional license is not required to use this functionality. KMS runs on NetBackup and is a master server-based symmetric Key Management Service. The KMS manages symmetric cryptography keys for the tape drives that conform to the T10 standard. KMS has been designed to use volume pool-based tape encryption. KMS is used with the tape hardware that has a built-in hardware encryption capability. An example of a tape drive that has built-in encryption is the IBM ULTRIUM TD4 cartridge drive. 

KMS is also used with disk volumes associated with NetBackup AdvancedDisk storage solutions. KMS runs with Cloud storage providers. KMS runs on Windows and UNIX. KMS generates keys from your passcodes or it auto-generates keys. The KMS operations are done through the KMS command line interface (CLI) or the Cloud Storage Server Configuration Wizard (when KMS is used with Cloud storage providers). The CLI options are available for use with both nbms and nbmkmsutil.

Red Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure 1.0 Formally Announced

$
0
0
Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT) had announced the Red Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure, the industry’s first production-ready fully open source hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) solution. The Red Hat'way to implement the HCI is by combining innovative virtualization and storage technologies with a stable, proven operating platform. Red Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure is designed to help enterprises to bring datacenter capabilities into locations with limited space, such as branch offices and other remote facilities.

Red Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure uses Red Hat’s widely deployed virtualization platform, as well as software-defined storage, to more efficiently manage an integrated compute and storage infrastructure across a range of server hardware or networks. To accomplish this, Red Hat Hyperconverged Infrastructure was built with a suite of components, integrated to provide a unified experience from installation to management. These include:
 

  • Red Hat Virtualization – The company’s award-winning Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM)-powered enterprise virtualization platform.
  • Red Hat Gluster Storage – Highly scalable software-defined storage that can be converged on the same hardware as Red Hat Virtualization hosts, removing the need for additional compute infrastructures and simplifying deployment.
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux – The world’s leading enterprise Linux platform offers a stable and reliable foundation.
  • Ansible by Red Hat – Deployment and management built on the leading simple, powerful, and agentless open source IT automation framework, providing automated installation and configuration from a central point.

The benefits that consolidation with a hyperconverged infrastructure provides:

  •     Eliminate storage as a discrete tier
  •     Easily virtualize business applications, maximizing resource utilization
  •     Single budget for compute and storage
  •     Single team managing infrastructure
  •     Simplified planning ans procurement
  •     Streamlined deployment and management
  •     Single support stack for compute and storage

Removing the storage tier by consolidating compute and storage onto a single server platform/tier offers streamlined deployment and management (enabled by Ansible by Red Hat and Red Hat CloudForms), a single support stack (one vendor to call now instead of two), and simplified planning and procurement (reducing the number of vendors to source from).

How To Define Veritas Netbackup Licensing Model

$
0
0
For the IT infrastructure manager  the TCO (Total Cost Ownership) of specific tool must be calculated carefully to avoid the improvidence budget.  Veritas Netbackup is an enterprise scale tool which requires huge budget if an organization used it.

To help the  IT infrastructure manager in calculating the budget for his Netbackup Veritas need, how much money spent for buying the license, Veritas has provided the tools and the way to calculate transparently.  There are two licensing models applied, namely : traditional licensing model and capacity licensing model.

NetBackup licensing models
NetBackup uses two licensing models:

  • The traditional licensing model counts the number of clients and servers, and then compares this information against licensed options.
  • The capacity licensing model calculates how much data at source is protected.
The Traditional Licensing Model
The traditional licensing model is based on the total number of protected clients in a NetBackup environment or on the total storage capacity.

The Capacity Licensing Model
Capacity licensing is based on the total amount of data that NetBackup protects on the client (or agent). When the capacity licensing model is used, NetBackup automatically gathers the information using the backup image header.


With the existing capacity licensing model, protected data is gathered using backup image header and then stored in the NetBackup catalog. Capacity information is gathered and a report is generated. The user then reconciles the information in the report with the actual capacity in use.

How capacity licensing uses Front-end Terabytes
The licensing fees for the use of NetBackup are based on the total number of Front-End Terabytes (FETBs) protected by NetBackup. Front-End Terabyte Calculation is a way of determining the total terabytes of data NetBackup protects. One FETB is 1 TB of protected data. The data can either be on clients or devices where the software is installed or where the software is used to provide backup functionality.



The nbdeployutil utility uses image headers in the NetBackup catalog to determine the terabytes of data that NetBackup protects. Any partial terabyte of data is rounded up to the next whole terabyte. The final total is the sum of the FETBs for each client or policy combination that the analyzer examines. The utility measures the actual data protected.


nbdeployutil utility options

The nbdeployutil utility is used to gather data and analyze licensing data, and then present the results in a spreadsheet as a report. The utility can be used to report on both the traditional or the capacity licensing model. The utility can be run automatically according to a customizable incremental schedule (for capacity reports only) or manually (for traditional and capacity reports).


Incremental capacity licensing reports run automatically.
In NetBackup 8.0, nbdeployutil supports incremental reporting. NetBackup triggers nbdeployutil to run based on a specified schedule, incrementally gather data, and generate capacity based licensing reports for the past 90 days. There are no scheduled reports in traditional licensing.




 


Note :
If you upgrade from an older version of nbdeployutil with incremental reporting to NetBackup 8.0 or later version, the operating system-based scheduler or Cron job is removed. NetBackup triggers nbdeployutil to run at a specified schedule, incrementally gather data, and generate capacity based licensing reports for the past 90 days.

 

Traditional or capacity licensing reports run manually
Run the nbdeployutil utility to gather data for a local master server, a remote master server, or a subset of clients. nbdeployutil can be run manually to generate a report for either the capacity or the traditional reporting model.
The utility generates the report in multiple steps. Data is gathered in the first step, and then analyzed and presented. 


The utility is located in the following directory:
On Windows: Install_dir\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\
On UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/


The performance of the nbdeployutil utility is dependent on the system running it as well as the size of the NetBackup catalog. The --gather command only executes as quickly as the bpimagelist command can run for 90 days' worth of images. The speed of report generation is dependent on the number of images and fragments. The operating system running the command also affects the utility's performance.


Depending on the environment, the nbdeployutil utility can take from several seconds to several minutes to run the --gather or the --report parameters.
