Hi List,
We have a Informix environment on Solaris10 (sparc) with a Netbackup 5.1 MP4 S01 client to interface to the database. When doing a complete restore with the -w option, the onbar stalls, restoring something but surely not everything. When doing a restore giving every dataspace of Informix, things go fine. What could be happening?
Commands:
# onbar -r -p -t '2008-03-10 06:00:00' -w ! Goes wrong
# onbar -r -p -t '2008-03-10 06:00:00' root_dbs physical_dbs datos0_dbs ... datos7_dbs logical_dbs ! Goes fine.
Output in the bar_act.log:

The environment variables are set to:
INFXBSA_CLIENT=mulhacen2-bck (our network address for the netbackup client)
INFXBSA_SERVER=netbackup (network address for the netbackup server)
in onconfig (the configuration file for Informix) the BAR_MAX_BACKUP parameter is set to 1 (serial restore) as opposed to 0.
