R4 (BE 15) fails to add Linux host and establish trust with ralus
I have 2 appliances right now, respectively on R2 (BE 2012) and R4 (BE 15), and recently copied the SQL thing all the settings from the R2 one to R4 one to save loads of work after migration. However, I discovered that the R4 cannot establish trust with one of my Linux hosts. 1. Tried upgrading the ralus agent from14.0.1798.1373 to the newest14.2.1180.3157: not work 2. Tried reinstalling the agent for both versions: not work 3.One of the previous posts suggested "encode=LATIN-1": not work too 4.Removed the host and can't even add it back now But if I use R2 to re-connect it, trust can be established. Ports areallowed in the firewall since theyare being used in the whole time. Don't really know what's going on.....could anyone please help? ralus.cfg is here, 192.168.5.14 is the IP of the R4:JPoon8 years agoLevel 4653Views0likes0Commentsreinstalling symantec BE 3600

Hi folks, My company has 1 CAS and 1 MMS BE3600 appliances in two different sites and I'm now working on the upgrade preparation from R2 to R3 and later to R4. I know from this article the recommended sequence. However, a couple of questions come up in my mind about it: 1) Now that there are duplicate jobs between the two appliances for cross-site data resiliency. During the upgrade, with the communication disabled, I know that all the duplicate jobs have to be put on hold. But after I finish upgrading the CAS to R3 while the MMS is still R2*, can I enable the communcation and unhold the jobs on each appliance to resume the duplication? Will the duplicate jobs encounter failure due to the different versions? 2) After I finish upgrading the CAS, can I upgrade the agents on the backup hosts (e.g. Windows agents, Linux RALUS) of the CAS's site first so that the local backup jobs can resume? * The reason for me not to upgrade the MMS immediately after the CAS is because, first, they are located in two sites; second, I need to observe if the backup jobs will go wrong after the upgrade. 3) On the other hand, does the upgrade ever fail? I know I can back up the Data and Catalogs folders beforehand for emergency, but if anything really goes wrong, what should I do with these 2 folders? any specific guidelines for fallback? Thanks.Solved2.3KViews0likes3Comments
Increasing Storage
Greetings to the well of knowledge... I know this has been discussed ad nauseam, but I don't think I've heard an answer to this one: Understanding that the storage would need to be reconfigured and that the current backup sets would be lost, can the physical disks in the appliance be replaced to increase capacity? Currently, there are four 1.8 TB drives in the appliance configured as RAID 5. Why can I not replace these with 3TB drives and rebuild the storage and the database? Seems like this should be possible. Regards, Ken786Views0likes1Comment
