you cannot import the DP6.11 IDB into v9 as the database architecture is totally different.
I'm assuming you have 2 DP cells. One on 6.11 and one on 9 ? yes?
The two possible ways forward are:
hope that helps!
Hello
If you have a valid SAID please log a supprt case, we will provide to you emergency license for be able to run backups. Afterwars we will analyze licenses and we will provide new ones if are invalid or change any environemnt value if are necessary.
Best Regards
Hello
FIrdtly let me advise you about DP 7.03 is totally out of support, about your issue no idea about how did you do IDB migration but somethinf was wrong.
Before mopve db40 folder you must to be sure that was in giid state and IDB services stopped. I guess that best option is move IDB again from olde server following those steps before move it.
Best Regards
just need to clarify.... I have a physical DP cell manager running 9.06 and I want to move this to a new Virtual machine.
I'm assuming this process....
seems like a plan....
also in the tmp dir there might be a dbcheck.lk file. If so remove that and IDB should be fine

Hi,
We do object copies out of catalyst stores to tapes for offsite backups. Our object copies are now taking a long time, as they are using the original gateways to pull the data out of the StoreOnce and write it to tape.
However for each of the gateways, in the policy tab we have unticked the box that says:
"Gateway may be used as source gateway for object copy"
and yet we can see that the gateways are being used to read from the StoreOnce Catalyst store.
So data protector seems to be ignoring the setting.
How can we fix this?
Buen dia,
alguien me podria ayudar con la siguiente consulta. Tengo programada una tarea de backup en data dataprotector, el archivo full que se respalda tiene una capidad de 2.2 TB Aprox. la libreria soporta cintas LTO6 y despues de ser formateadas toma un tamaño aprox de 3.5 TB, pero el backup toma un promedio de 3 cintas, validando el tamaño de las cintas veo que una solo asigna un tamaño de 66 GB, la otra un tamaño de 22 GB y la tarcera de 1.6 TB.
Hi all . We've recently installed HP DP 9.07 installation server onto a Windows 2012 R2 system. The installation completed fine, and this has been imported succesfully into the Cell (RHEL). When we try deploying any components via the installation server (using the DP GUI), we get the error shown below. We also get the same error when trying to run an upgrade against the installation server (as a test). When we run the check against the installed software, this completes OK.
Error:
Digital signiature verification of the install kit failed necessary trusted root certification authorities and intermediate certification authorities.
We haven't been able to find anything specific to Data Protector for this issue although have checked the 'certificate propogation' service is running - this was mentioned on another certificate issue found on the web.
Any help appreciated!
Hello.
We have a Cell Manager in Windows 2012 Std. machine with Data Protector 9.08.
The problem is that after the upgrade from 9.07 to 9.08, the bsm.exe keeps crashing in various times during the day. As a result many of the scheduled backups don't even start. We didn't have that problem before the upgrade.
As a workaround, we have a windows schedule that restarts the DP services 3 times a day, right before the most significant backups, but that is NOT a solution.
We had the same problem some years ago after the upgrade of another CM to version 6.20 and we solved it with a specific fix from HP. Is there a similar fix for 9.08??
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
We have a couple of tapes that have been marked as Fair and I can't work out why.
The Condition policy of the pool is Valid for 36 months. They were formatted July 2014.
Maximum overwrites 250, they are on 13.
Any ideas?
Hello Sandro
We are looking to implement incremental backups for VM's in our HyperV environment in DP v9.07 and are seeing the same issue. (snapshots that we are unable to remove) Do you know if there are any patches (DP) that may have resolved/enhanced this rather than running Powershell scripts? Our HyperV admins aren't happy about this and believe it's only DP that causes this issue? Does it happen in VEEAM, Backup Exec??? I'd really like to implement Inc backups as they are very time consuming every night as a Full. The admins won't let me implement it :) :)
Many thanks for any assistance.
I am seeing a similiar issue when I attempt to upgrade my older windows host DP clients from 9.07 to 9.08. Newer windows (2012, etc.) upgrade just fine. Windows installation server is on version 2012 with DP 9.08. The cell manager is RHEL 6 w/9.08. Here is what I get on older windows hosts when I try to upgrade them to 9.08 from 9.07, seems to be all older win2003, and win2008. I've been running on 9.07 for months now without issue.

We are using DP 9.07 on HP-UX 11.31 CM and HPE StoreOnce 5100 appliances. We are seeing an issue with some of our copy jobs (post backup, replication enabled, 5100 to 5100), in which the copy job will completely copy all data, but then halt without any error and never complete.
Has anyone else encountered this behavior before? It seems that if we abort and manually re-run the copy job it will eventually complete successfully.
Thanks in advance,
Brian

Licenses (if I recall) are tied to the hostname (or IP), you may need new license keys assuming that is going to change.
Also there may be other steps to ensure that you get your (text file) specs transfered, etc. And then also, you'd need to worry about export/import of clients and unsecure/resecure, etc.
Hi,
having the exact same problem with DP 9.08 cell manager on Windows Server 2008
thanks! yes licensing will need sorting out and yes text files like backup specs, schedules etc will need copying....I'll check once the readdb is done.........as this is my first v8/9 migration with the new DB...
