Maintenance Pack NB_ADC_50_7_M.tar provides an update to Veritas NetBackup (tm) Advanced Client on Solaris and HP-UX platforms.
Details:
ADC 5.0GA Pack NB_ADC_50_7_M
README
December 5, 2006
Requirement: NB_CLT_50_7_M
================================================================================
** All 5.0 MP7 Maintenance Packs for NetBackup server, client, all
Add-on
products, Database Agents, and Java GUI must be applied so that
the entire
system is at the same Maintenance Pack level. **
This Maintenance Pack provides an update to Veritas NetBackup (tm)
Advanced
Client.
Symantec recommends that the backing up of
active file systems be avoided,
or the use of snapshot technologies be
implemented. The directory structure
reported back from the file
system (to NetBackup) may not contain all of the
files available
during the time of backup. NetBackup will not report errors
in many
cases where the file's existence is not known to NetBackup as
reported
by the file system.
================================================================================
=================
PACK DEPENDENCIES
=================
-- Installation of this Maintenance Pack requires version
1.17.4.40 of
the Vrts_pack.install.
-- Maintenance Pack NB_CLT_50_7_M must be installed prior to
installing
this Maintenance Pack.

IV. UNINSTALL INSTRUCTIONS
============================
Note: This will ONLY uninstall the
Maintenance Pack from your local machine.
1) Close the
NetBackup user interfaces.
Make sure the
NetBackup server has no active jobs running (for
example, backups, restores, or duplications).
If a database agent is being used, such as
Oracle,
ensure that the database services
are stopped.
2) Change directory to the patch save
directory.
Substitute the pack name for
$PACK in the following command:
cd
/usr/openv/pack/$PACK/save
3) Run the un-install script:
./Vrts_pack.uninstall

server tried to requeue jobs when a
status 134
occurred.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET518757
Description:
Disk group cloning failed because
Advanced Client did not recognize
different format types of
the disk. It only recognized the default disk
type labeled,
cds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET540212
Description:
Make messages failed in the cl/client
directory because of
duplicate message
strings.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET536883
Description:
FlashBackup was recoding directory
inodes as possible hard links. This
caused a lot of overhead
activity during the restore that greatly
increased the restore
time.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET546316
Description:
FlashBackup core dumps during the
changed block handling stage
of an offhost backup. In
addition, restores fail during the
changed block
processing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET537248
Description:
Advanced Client VxFS_Checkpoint
snapshot method could not create more than
one Veritas (tm)
File System by Symantec (VxFS) storage checkpoint within
a
second on the same file system. This was because the VxFS storage
checkpoint name was based on the local time and a second is
the minimal
resolution, this makes the name within a second
not unique.
bpfis process
errors as follows :
vxfs_ckpt_freeze: Cannot create checkpoint, status=17 -
Unknown Checkpoint
API
error
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET580984
Description:
There are two methods for fast recovery
of files from VxFS_Checkpoint
snapshot, Block Level
Incremental (BLI) and File Promotions. BLI restore
requires
that the file to restore exists and File Promotion requires the
file to be deleted. Therefore, the two methods cannot be used
at the same
time.

Description:
Buffer overflow areas have been
identified and corrected in daemons running
on Veritas
NetBackup master, media, and client servers. Successful access
to a vulnerable Veritas NetBackup server and the ability to
successfully

Description:
The snap driver needed to
be compiled on Solaris 10 to run on Solaris
10.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET409615
Description:
VxVM 4.1 required the addition of a
mapping library for offhost
backups.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET406247
Description:
When there is a LOFS (loopback file
system) mount, a bpfis create
function fails and places
the following message in the bpfis log:
14:25:29.673 [12271] <16> bpfis main: FTL -
process_fs_list() failed,
status
11
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET374100
Description:
On
very busy HP-UX systems, the mount of the VxFS snapshot took
long
enough for the process to be killed by a signal
when an error was
detected. The snapshot then was not
able to be
removed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET321763
Description:
When a Flashbackup job was cancelled
from the interface, the snapshot was
not deleted.
Workaround:
To avoid the issue, manually kill the
backup by issuing the following
command:
kill -TERM
to
bpbkar.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET322790
Description:
The
NBU_snap snapshot creation failed if the cache device was more
than 1 Terabyte.
Workaround:
To avoid this issue, reduce the cache
size to less than 1
Terabyte.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET410523
Description:
Incremental backups would not show all
files backed up, or would have
incomplete directory paths if a
write to a temp file failed.
Workaround:
To avoid this issue, increase the file
space available to change
/usr/openv/netbackup/BPFSMAP_TMPDIR
a link to a file system with
more
space.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET203296
Description:
When browsing a UNIX FlashBackup image
on a Windows master server, you
were unable to browse
the entire path for raw
partitions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET419469
Description:
Storage foundations 4.1 on Solaris 10
would return a value of -1 for the
disk address to indicate a
hole in a sparse file. However, the code
expected a 0 to
indicate a hole. This caused incremental backups
that
include sparse files to fail with the following in
the bpbkar log:
4:07:29.132 [20414]
<4> bpfsmap: INF - put_imghdr: byteorder=0

Etrack Incident = ET289663 ET232819
Description:
A BusinessCopy backup with keep_fi=1
failed when a non-default mirror was
used.
(NetBackup Clients: HP Solaris )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Etrack Incident = ET287102
Description:
After running FlashBackup backups that
were aborted, a snapcachelist
command showed the snapshot
cache device still in use even though the
snaplist command did
not return any snapshots. Eventually, the snapshots
would fail
because of the 32 snapshots per cache device limit. A reboot is
required to recover the use of the cache device.
Additional Notes:
The snap driver has been modified
to use a different flag bit to denote a
snapshot in creation
versus a snapshot that is being deleted. A snapshot in
creation is allowed to be listed by snaplist, and can be
deleted.
FlashBackup has been changed to remember the snapshot
ID between the time
that the snapshot is initially created to
the time that the snapshot device
is opened so that it can be
deleted.

Etrack Incident = ET288797
Description:
With NetBackup 5.0 MP4 in place,
shadowimage backups are working, but the
disks are not being
resynchronized. The "resync" is failing on the rebuild.
For an alternate client shadowimage/businesscopy backup, if
client can only
see the primary disks, then the backup fails.
The online_util log showed
find_pair failed and
bcv_raw_device is the same as dev_raw_device.

Description:
FlashBackup on Windows for incremental
backups was allocating 32 times the

(NetBackup Clients: HP
Solaris Solaris9 )
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
Some FlashBackup backups took longer
using NetBackup 5.0 than they did for
NetBackup 3.4 because of
the overhead created by the binary catalog.
Workaround:
You can raise the maximum files per add
value by placing a value of 95000
in the file
/usr/openv/netbackup/MAX_FILES_PER_ADD. This raises the
limit
not only for FlashBackup but for all
backups.
Additional Notes:
For
FlashBackup only, this patch raises the number of files added per
call
to the catalog from 500 to 95000. You can modify
this limit by putting the
desired value in file
/usr/openv/netbackup/FBU_MAX_FILES_PER_ADD, which
only
affects FlashBackup backups.
(All NetBackup
Servers)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description:
A system panic occurred when a snapshot
was being closed at the same time
as another snapshot
using the same cache partition was being read. The
panic
occurred because the partition was a DRL-enabled (Dirty
Region
Logging) VxVM volume that had not been opened by
the snap driver, and the
DRL threads were being
destroyed while the read was attempting to
access
them.
Workaround:
Remove support for DRL from the cache
partition if it is a VxVM volume.

Description:
When resuming a suspended backup job
with Windows Open File Backup enabled,
the resumed
backup will not re-use the original backup job's
volume
snapshots. Instead, if the WOFB Error Control
configuration setting was set
to Abort on Error, the
resumed backup job will abort and a status 156-
snapshot error
will be encountered. If the WOFB Error Control
configuration
setting was set to Disable Snapshots &
Continue, the resumed backup job
will be resumed without
any volume snapshots. This behavior is not correct
and
the resumed backup job should re-use the original, suspended
backup
job's snapshot volumes if they were successfully
created.
