serial number mismatch after drive replacement
Hi all,
I´ve tried the solutions found in other post of the forum but didn´t get solved.
Our servers ran Solaris 10 and Netbackup7.
After a drive replacement I did:
DOWN DRIVE
tpautoconf -report_disc
tpautoconf - replace_drive ... path ... (with the info reported in the previous command)
UP DRIVE
restart services
(same procedure than during previous drive changes without failures), but our platform still references the old serial number:
tpconfig -d:
16 Drive_LTO8 hcart TLD(1) DRIVE=5
MISSING_PATH:/dev/rmt/16cbn:1068041083MISSING_PATH:/dev/rmt/16cb UP
user@master $ tpautoconf -report_disc
user@master $
Under Devices\Drives in NB console, clicking on the drive affected I can see the folowing:
Drive_LTO8 nameserver /dev/rmt/16cbn New serial
Drive_LTO8 nameserver MISSING_PATH:/dev/rmt/16cbn:old_serial Old serial
How can I update the configuration with the correct serial number?
thanks in advance.
OK, so if the foolowing has been done, which I believe it has ...
You have deleted the drive from the NBU config that has the missing path.
Even though you have restarted ltid, it is still there.
If this is true ...
Two options.
1. nbemmcmd -deletealldevices -allrecords
2. Log call enquire to the possibility of getting an SQL script to detele the drive from the database directly.
