Re: IDB backups taking a long time

Is there any other way to back up the IDB other than the Internal Database backup spec?

All the backups are running fine, it is only problem with the IDB backups.

If I back up the entire /var/opt/omni/server dir, will that be the same as compared to the IDB backup?

Hi

Obiously is not exactly the same but you can do an offline backup.

1º Stop DP services omnisv -stop

2º Make a copy of /var/opt/omni/server/db40 folder.

Best Regards

DP9: Setting up a copy

$
0
0

Ok... I think I have been looking at DP screens to long.  I am having an issue setting up what I think should be easy.  I have a bunch of servers I do ONLINE backups of the Oracle database.  In the Backup Specifications I have them selected.  Then under Objects I [x] Include only objects with less than 1 copy, No time limit.  I fire up the copy... and 2 of 21 selected backups are all it finds.  What did I overlook?  The backups ran last night, why aren't they selected for copies?

Ok... first, does the file exist?  Who owns it?  it the path setup readable? Also, you might need to add a link to the directory.  from inside the directory /oracle/IM2 create a link from saparch to it.  Normally, when I set up oracle I have /oracle/SID/saparch the "real" directory and a link from /oracle/SID/orarch pointing to it.   Here is an example of my setup.  I am using HP-UX

(root@sapnpr)# pwd
/oracle/BPR
(root@sapnpr)# ls -lrt | grep arch
lrwxr-xr-x   1 orabpr     dba              7 Apr 26  2008 oraarch -> saparch
drwxr-xr-x   4 orabpr     dba          21504 Feb  9 07:01 saparch

Do you have any After backup object operations that would make a copy once the last night backups finished?

Personally, I like DPCom, since it parses datalists into perl hashes. That imho provides a safer way to "edit" files. (But a sed will get the job done as easily). Since I get almost no results on Google on DPCom, I guess the knowledge of this gem is not widespread and this post gives my an opportunity to showcase the power of DPCom.

Turns out the person who set it up used a different target catalyst.  I need to take myself out back and beat myself up.

Thanks for the quick reply though.

Hi, Could you please share more details on the configuration you are using. All we know is FC link between the MediaAgent server and SOS device. What type of SOS are you using and how did you configure DP device. All “tweaking” depends on the configuration you are using.

I know that in one of the DP versions there were some performance improvements, but not certain of exact version. Would suggest to upgrade to the latest.  Additionally here are to omnirc variables that would be useful if you are using target Side deduplication: CATALYST_PAYLOAD=1 && CATALYST_BODY_PAYLOAD_COMPRESSION=0.

Could it be that you are using “source/server” side deduplication and there is not enough CPU/MEM on the gateway system? Regards AlesKol


DP9.06 - network share backup - incr backing up same data from previous night

$

I have a DP cell 9.06 which backs up a NAS share of veeam data off a D2D. The backup is just an incr so it should only be backing up one file a night which is the veeam backup file.

What we are seeing is that each incr is backing up everything since the full, not only whats been backed up since the last incr.

Anyone seen this behaviour. I would expect this from Incr1 but Incr should be since the last backup not the last full.

thanks!

==============================
Status: At least one of the Data Protector processes/services is not running.


This system is configured to restart DP services automatically after a last backup job of a day by detecting a completion of omnib command .

 

[Cause]

It seems that CRS has not been stopped normally .

- /var/opt/omni/server/log/omnisv.log
2017-2-5 4:48:35 - STOP
Cannot stop "crs" service, system error:
[1053]

2017-2-5 4:50:27 - START
HPE Data Protector services successfully started.


MMD and KMS are initiated by CRS start up .
If CRS didn't stop and remained, CRS will be skipped at the next start up .
Because the start up of CRS doesn't happen , MMD and KMS will not be started up also .

Regarding the situation that CRS didn't stop , CRS seems to have been busy .
According to sm.log , MMD and KMS were stopped before BSM .
omnib command might have finished and returned , but CRS still had some activities for BSM .

[Workaround / Fix]

It will be a kind of timing issues .
To avoid the error situation ,it is suggested to insert some sleep before executing omnisv stop even though omnib command returned without any error .
