Catalog backup and restore test

What is NBAC?

I use netbackup GUI -> recover the catalog
I dont stop anything before start :(

What to do now? :(

NBAC is NetBackup Access Control.

Was that the entire server.log?
I was expecting to see a bit more?

You have not showed us 'bpps -x' output?
(Command is in /usr/openv/netbackup/bin)

You can try to stop everything:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/netbackup stop
 /opt/VRTSpbx/bin/vxpbx_exchanged stop

Then start:

 /opt/VRTSpbx/bin/vxpbx_exchanged start
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/netbackup

Let us know what happens.
 

Please find bpps output attached.
With this condition, can I stop all, by bp.kill then start all again?

Did you run 'bpps' or 'bpps -x'?

We need to see MM and PBX processes as well.

Do not stop anything yet - according to bpps output bprecover is still running.

There is this log (according to the output) that you can check:

/usr/openv/netbackup/logs/user_ops/root/logs/jbpRestore-20130912155027.log

Other than the one defunct process, all NBU processes seem to be up and running - still need to see MM and PBX processes.

Not sure what else to check at this point....

I am with Martin - we need more info:

Please tell us more :

Is this the original server?

Does it have the same name?

Did you re-install?

Same NetBackup Version?

Same installation path?

Tell us exactly what you are doing and where you are testing this recovery

I was run bpps -a, attached is the bpps -x

@Martin,
Please tell us more :

Is this the original server? Yes

Does it have the same name? Yes

Did you re-install? NO

Same NetBackup Version? Yes

Same installation path? Yes

Tell us exactly what you are doing and where you are testing this recovery
I just test run recovery catalog from Netbackup GUI, in master server.

I dont create a blank EMM database either before start.

As per Martin's excellent post - if you are restoring back to the same server, you should create a blank database.

We never knew that you were restoring back to the same server - most people test this at their DR site or on a test system - not their live, production server.

The process to create a blank database is described in Chapter 5 of the Troubleshooting Guide.

You did not mention your NBU version - you can find links to all NBU manuals in 'Handy NBU Links' in my signature.
(But Symantec KB site is down at the moment)

My NBU version is 7.5.0.6
Should I wait?

What is the worst case I must do?

You will probably have to stop everything, recreate the EMM db as per the manual and then start the catalog recovery again.

Just create all logs before you start all over - 
bprd
bpdbm
bptm
bpdm (if restoring from Disk stu)
