Coverage displaying 2 different filesystems twice.

Hi All

Just wondering if anyone has seen this behaviour from coverage ?

Here is the story:-
We run NBU7504 with a hpux master.
Our master server was down at the weekend for OS patching and the 1st run of a coverage report for the master reported 2 different filesystems twice.

Here is a sample from the coverage report:-
   /usr/openv                                              /dev/vg01/openvlv     YBSLUX06-B_BKUP        
   /usr/openv/netbackup/logs                      /dev/vg01/nbulogslv   YBSLUX06-B_BKUP        
   /usr/openv/netbackup/logs                      /dev/vg01/nbulogslv   YBSLUX06-B_BKUP        
   /var                                                       /dev/vg00/lvol8       YBSLUX06-B_BKUP        
   /var/opt/perf                                           /dev/vg01/perflv      YBSLUX06-B_BKUP        
   /var/opt/perf                                          /dev/vg01/perflv      YBSLUX06-B_BKUP  

 Here is a sample of the bpmount command:-
 
 bpmount -i
 
MNT - VxFS 19 12 /dev/vg01/scratchlv /var/scratch
MNT - VxFS 16 13 /dev/vg01/perflv /var/opt/perf
MNT - VxFS 16 13 /dev/vg01/perflv /var/opt/perf
MNT - VxFS 15 4 /dev/vg00/lvol7 /usr
MNT - VxFS 17 10 /dev/vg01/openvlv /usr/openv
MNT - VxFS 19 25 /dev/vg01/nbulogslv /usr/openv/netbackup/logs
MNT - VxFS 19 25 /dev/vg01/nbulogslv /usr/openv/netbackup/logs
MNT - VxFS 18 7 /dev/vg01/tivolilv /tivoli

Has anyone come accross this or have an explanation.?

Many thanx

  • Hi Andy,

    Re 'Do the entries in the exclude_list correspond directly to the duplications you're seeing in bpmount -i ?`

    No -

    Here is our standard Linux exclude list:-

    /tmp
    /proc
    /dev
    /mnt
    /var/tmp
    /sys

    And here  is a snapshot of the coverage report from the same Linux box:-

  • 'Do the entries in the exclude_list correspond directly to the duplications you're seeing in bpmount -i ?`

    That was a *really stupid* question of mine to say the least! Why would there be a correlation - one is an exclude the other essentially an include - DOH!

    The only correlation I see is that there are 6 entries in the exclude & a 'corresponding' number of duplications in bpmount - there must be something in the coding that is replacing the entries from the exclude with the duplications in the bpmount .... hopefully it is only cosmetic .....
