nbdevconfig (Synthetic full backups)

[perez_cmz]

I'm attempting to enable synthetic backups in my environment. I'm trying to run the following command on my master server for each of my disk pools.

nbdevconfig -changedp -dp US_DC1_DISK_DC1DISKO1_LSU02 -stype DataDomain -setattribute OptimizedImage

But I'm getting the following message when I run the command.

DSM was unable to find the following disk pool: US_DC1_DISK_DC1DISK01_LSU02(DataDomain)@master.domain.com
Unable to update
failed to change disk pool, invalid command parameter

does that disk pool appear when running the following command?

nbdevquery -listdp

Yes

V7.5 US_DC1_DISK_DC1DISK01_LSU02 1 108889.30 108889.30 1 98 80 -1 dc1disk01-ost.domain.com

Rather copy & paste the name. You made a typo error.

Your DP name:
US_DC1_DISK_DC1DISKO1_LSU02
US_DC1_DISK_DC1DISK01_LSU02
Actual name above.

See the mistake?
