Hi Team,
ISILON Backup Issue was resolved after installing the Patch-106571 on ISILON.
The issue was smart files generated in ISILON.
01-03-2014 11:13 PM
I googled and created file NDMP_PROGRESS_TIMEOUT in the path of <install path>\Veritas\NetBackup\db\config with 10080
another file also i created in <install path>\Veritas\NetBackup\MAX_FILES_PER_ADD with 25000 value
I tried but no use.
Please help, Thanks in advance.

The backup selections list must specify directories from the perspective of the
NDMP host.
examples:
/home/dir1/
/vol1
Only directory or volume names are allowed.
Did this backup work anytime?I suspect your backup selection is wrong.

We need to see exactly what you are using for your Backup Selections. I too use Isilon and went through hell to configure the backups. You don't find much about Isilon NDMP on Google. If I had a /ifs/data mines would look like this:
SET EXCLUDE="/.snapshot"
/ifs/data
This would backup everything in /ifs/data and exclude .snapshot

Thanks for the replay sri vani.
backup selection paths are right.
Last month i took fullbackup for these streams.
This month only the Issue came.

check thi slink:
https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/ndmpxdrdecodeerr
Quoting the possible resolution:
"I was getting the same error trying to do NDMP backups from the netapp filer, I was able to resolve this issue by disabling jumbo frames on the NIC, if you go to the NIC properties and then click on configure you should see options to adjust things like performance options, power save options and jumbo frames, disable the jombo frames."

Hi Team,
ISILON Backup Issue was resolved after installing the Patch-106571 on ISILON.
The issue was smart files generated in ISILON.

Glad that issue got resolved.
Thanks for updating us along with the solution
01-16-2014 10:37 AM
Glad to hear it. What version of OneFS are you running on the Isilon?
06-08-2017 09:44 AM
Hi
We are facing similar issue with netbackup 7.5. Can you please share which OneFS version are you using in your environment. We are using 8.0.0.4
Thanks
Siva

I doubt that @Satish_munduru1 is still running same OneFS version as in 2014...
