Rogue entries bpjobd (frames received on socket)

[Unknown77]

Hi VOX,.

I get the below reported by the appliance while it writes duplications to tapes (LTO5), can you please advise me with more details regarding this as I think it may indicate an issue?

I have already had a look and can not find anything like this nowhere, fragment size is set to 65,535 Megabytes which should be roughty 500GB. May I kindly ask to advise more on the below etc. ? thank you very much.

See @Marianne previous reply to something similar, here:

Already checked it, I am not going to remove bpdbjobs directory as it was always there... I think that Marianne meant on the client side...

[sdo]

bpdbjobs is a Master Server function, and I have also never had to look at those logs too.

Plus you need to remember the severity coding is in the message :

<2> info
<4> extended info
<8> warning
<16> error
<32> critical

...so your messages are extended info and can be ignored.

I don't have a bpjobd or bpdbjobs logs folder on any of my Master Servers.

@Unknown77 

As per @sdo 's post - the severity code is <4>. So, nothing to be concerned about.

There is really no need for this folder on a NBU master server - unless you are troubleshooting a specific Activity Monitor issue with Veritas. 

If you really want to know what the log entries mean, you will need to ask Veritas. 
My guess is that they will advise you to upgrade as you still seem to be on version 7.5. 
Various changes were made to Jobs database over the years....
