Hi All,
we are planing to upgade the DP cell manager from verstion 7 to vertion 9.
our environment is given below.
OS:-HP-UX
Data Protector verstion:-7
i am requesting you please provide any detaild plane if you have. we need to upgrade it very urgently.
HP support is also not giving. please help me on this
Hi Sebastian,
Thanks for your response. I should have updated this post to say we did find some JAVA errors eventually which match up with the time when the advanced scheduler stopped running. We are seeing the following error in the server.log at the time the issue occurs - once we have restarted the services it is not longer present:
ERROR [org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[jboss.web].[default-host].[/jce-dispatcher].[com.hp.im.jce.diaptcher.ws.DispatcherService]] (http--0.0.0.0-7116-38)
Servlet.service() for servlet com.hp.im.jce.dispatcher.ws.dispatcherService threw exception:
org.jboxx.resteasy.spi.UnhandledException:org.jboss.weld.interceptor.proxy.interceptor.proxy.interceptorException:Java.lang.OutOfMemoryError:Java heap space
With this error message passed on, the HP support desk advised to delete and recreate all the schedules in the advanced scheduler to see if that avoids further hangs. We did that yesterday so now we are playing a waiting game to see if we get further hangs in the advanced schedulers, and we'll keep an eye out for JAVA errors.
They did also advise that we should upgrade to 09.08 by default, but to us being only two levels behind at 09.06 doesn't seem like a big deal, unless there are specific fixes in 09.08 which would help with our issue.
Anyway, I will also pass back the defect QCCR2A70785 to see if that stirs up any further help and advice as to a possible fix to this solution. We don't want to have to delete and re-create all advanced schedules every time we have an upgrade!
Thanks,
Andy
you cant just jump from v6 to v9. I would also assume that your v6 cell manager is a 32-bit host yes?
This will need migrating to 64-bit under DP6.2 before then upgrading to v7 then to v9...
If you have a valid support contract you will need to request a new license once you move to v9 as v8.1 onwards introduced new licensing.
In relation to compatibility please check the platform matrices so that all your clients and databases/apps (if applicable) are supported in v9
Hello
1º Be sure that you are running HP-UX 11.31 because teh rest of version are nto supportted as Cell manager
2º Check chapter 7 from Installation.pdf file "Upgrading from Data Protector 6.20, 7.00, 8.00 and later"
3º Pre-upgrade steps from this White Paper will be useful, also troubleshoot for some possible issues.

4º Check Video training before upgrade

Hello
1. Set "archive_mode = on" on postgresql.conf
2. Grant windows domain user account that is used to have the following Windows OS Local Security Policy privileges:
• Impersonate a client after authentication
• Replace a process level token

Hello
Yo have not detailed DP version so guess that you are using 9.04 or 9.05...please upgrade to DP 9.08 that resolve this issue or request to support appropriated fix for your version.
Best Regards
Hello
This is a product limitation, ER was raised for very very older version (DP 6.10) but still is under review.
Maybe you can raise new one opening support case.
Best Regards
Hi,
We have DP 9.0.
We are using our cell manager to do a network share backup on a NAS.
There is a lot of files and subfolders on that NAS and now the job keep failing because "inactivity timeout of 8400 seconds".
We have used OB2NOTREEWALK=1 on client with enormous amount of data before but this time, because it's the cell manager who is backing up the \\NAS01\Backupshare, we don't want to disable TREEWALK for every backup job, only for the network share backup of the NAS.
How could we enable "no tree walk" for that particular Network Share Backup only and not impact other backup jobs ?
Many thanks
Alain
Hello,
i need to be 100 % sure that all files in a backup are also available on the configured mirror.
I use this CLI command:
omnidb -filesystem [hostname]:[path] "[path]" -session [sessionid] -catalog
This prints a complete filelist of all backed up files in the session. I also have a mirror configured for this backup specification and want a file list like the one above for all files in the mirror to do a diff between those two lists.
I can't find any command to query the mirror objects, is this even possible?
kind regards
Didn't test anything. But I would check the omnimm command which can work on specific media, like e.g.
omnimm -catalog Medium
omnimm -list_copy Medium
Play around with this command, in combination with omnidb if needed and I'm sure you can find a solution.

Hi,
After upgrading to DP9.07 some of the clients cannot update remotely. If install the disk agent locally from DVD, then it will be a unpatched DP9 agent. Patching all clients mannually is long task.
How can I extract/create package disk agent from my installaton server (hp-ux) which is already patched.
The target clients are mostly Linux.
Hope the question is clear.
Thanks
I checked the omnimm command but it looks like i just get a list of files on that medium.
So now i have the problem that i can't distinguish if a file was stored on that medium in a given session or appended by a later backup operation on the same medium.
omnimm -catalog should also list the session ID eg:
Session : 2016/11/21-4
Object name : cmdp90.dp90.dplab.local:/C 'C:'
Object type : WinFS
Disk Agent ID : 1479735515
Object status : Completed

Hello,
i got it.
omnidb -filesystem [objekt] - session [sessionid] -copyid [copyid] -catalog
It's the copyid option to query the catalog especially for the copy job.
The copy-id is saved with the session details.
Now something completely different:
Is it possible to get the host and object type from DP via a variable?
omnidb -filesystem [HOSTNAME]:[OBJECT] "[OBJECT]" -session "$SESSIONID" -copyid "$OCOPYID"
Kind regards
Hi All,
We are facing an issue with DP GUI. This specially happens when backups are running in full swing during backup window. It gives an error "connection to CRS failed"", however the CRS seems to be running fine using onmisv -status.
Some times it comes back to normal and sometimes we need to restart the services.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. DP version: 9.08 OS:Windows2012
Regards Raj
Hi Raj,
Did you run the DP GUI from the Cell Manager itself?
How many clients do you have?
How many backup running at the same time, when you have this problem (GUI hang)?
Hi,
We recently migrated from backupexec to dataprotector for our backups. One issue we are facing is with scheduling. We would like to run a job every Sunday of the month except the first Sunday and so we've created a job which executes on the 2nd, 3rd 4th and last Sunday.
The issue we face is that this job run twice on months with only 4 sundays. Is there an option for 5th Sunday?
Hi,
Login to the HP-UX IS/CM, then try to get the DA from:
For 64-bits Linux:
/opt/omni/databases/vendor/da/gpl/x86_64/linux-x86-64/A.<DP version>
download and read the DP 9 Installation guide.
it is all there
