I am trying to install OpsCenter 7.5 Server, followed by the 7505 update, onto a W2K8R2 SP1 server. I have done this many times before, however I have not previously come accross this error. I am running the BROWSER.EXE as administrator, which launches me into the install GUI screens. I select Installation, and then OpsCenter Server, complete the first few screens, select CUSTOM INSTALL and change my install locations to the D drive of the server. After selecting installI immediately get a pop-up box saying Error 1719 - The Windows Installer service could not be accessed etc. etc. As this is a single Master Server / Media Server installtion I am installing the OpsCenter onto the Master Server - however I have also tried on another W2K8R2 server and I get the same results. I have trawled the various posts around this error, and checked that the Windows Installer Service is running, re-registered the msiexec dll (both system32 and syswow64) but to no avail. I have successfully installed Netbackup 7.5 and the 7505 update on this same server - no problems. Any advice / suggestions ? Is this around a 32bit/64bit issue, and related to the syswow64 ? I am however confused as to why NBU iteslef installed with no issues but OpsCenter is not installing. Thanks, AJ.Solved935Views2likes4CommentsOpsCenter not connected to master server
Hi all, I'm new to OpsCenter and I'm having difficulties making it communicate with my master server. Current setup: - master is 6.5.3.1, running on Solaris 9, 32-bit; no media servers in my config - I've installed OpsCenter 7.0 on a Windows 2003 machine, 32-bit All went fine with the installation, Ihad some trouble starting Tomcat but I managed to bypass those and now I have a fully functional server and a nice, clean GUI up and running. What I don't have is a functional connection between OpsCenter and the master. Here's what I did, chronologically: installed OpsCenter, ViewBuilder, ICS and Agent on the Windows host checked host2host connectivity (bpclntcmd -ip/hn are OK, ping and telnet on port 1556 work fine) checked if the master has the windows host in the "Servers" list -> OK checked if /opt/VRTSpbx/bin/pbx-exchange is running on the master -> OK checked if nbsl daemon is running on the master -> OK "nbregopsc -add" isn't recognized on the master, I assume it only works in NBU7.0 and above in terms of agent configuration, I've created one from the GUI (since the master is 6.5) yet since OC is not connected, nothing gets collected I've restarted the OC server multiple times checked nbproxy, which seems OK too: bpps -x | grep nbproxy root 4387 26800 0 Jan 20 ? 0:00 sh -c "/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy" dblib nbpem_cleanup root 4388 4387 0 Jan 20 ? 0:01 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy dblib nbpem_cleanup root 3920 3918 0 Jan 20 ? 0:08 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy dblib nbpem_email root 26806 26800 0 Jan 20 ? 0:00 sh -c "/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy" dblib nbpem root 26792 26791 0 Jan 20 ? 0:11 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy dblib nbjm root 3918 26800 0 Jan 20 ? 0:00 sh -c "/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy" dblib nbpem_email root 14478 14477 0 18:27:42 ? 0:01 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy libminlic -mgrIORFile -LicenseManager-3.ior.mg root 26791 26787 0 Jan 20 ? 0:00 sh -c "/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy" dblib nbjm root 14477 26862 0 18:27:42 ? 0:00 sh -c "/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy" libminlic -mgrIORFile -LicenseManager- root 26807 26806 0 Jan 20 ? 4:36 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbproxy dblib nbpem I'm guessing I'm doing something wrong here, and I suspect the fact that the agent needs to be installed actually on the master server, NOT on the OC host. If so, please confirm, this particularly important aspect is not clearly stated in the OC admin guide (but I've pretty much given up hopes of seeing proper English and a decent logical flow of ideas in Symantec's documentation, after stumbling upon this: "Either delete the user backup schedule that is a copy from a full or incremental schedule that has the calendar base schedule and recreate the user backup schedule or modify the existing user backup schedule by changing the backup type to full backup and then de-select the calendar base and change it back to user backup type schedule." If someone can translate that, I'd be really grateful...). If my master is running on Solaris I suppose I'd need the Solaris agent? Is there any patch I need to apply to my version of OC (7.0)? Any authentication issues between the two servers I should be aware of ? Below is the security.conf file from the Windows OC host: #Last Updated on #Fri Aug 14 15:58:26 IST 2009 vxss.portnumber=2821 vxss.pbxportnumber=1556 vxss.hostname=localhost vxss.password=EQWWPZUwh5o= vxss.username=admin vxss.domainName=broker I've already executed on the OC host the following command, with it being the resource broker, to no avail: ./vssat setuptrust --broker <RootBrokerMachine>:<port> --securitylevel high Thank you for whatever useful advice you can give me.Solved6.3KViews2likes8Commentsgenerate a custom report using OpsCenter Analytics
NBU 7.6.0.3 it seems Symantec has left out an obvious report that is needed by many admins. i'm referring to this link which is also looking for the same custom report i am looking: https://www-secure.symantec.com/connect/forums/how-generate-report-all-backup-jobspolicies-schedulestart-time-and-retention i too have tried the custom reports but i cannot get it to report to what i need which is: Backup policy name Schedule (daily/weekly/monthly) Start Time Exchange Backup Daily 23:00 Oracle Backup Weekly 23:30 if one has a report like that, it would be easy to see if my backup schedules are overlapping or there are some gaps.2.4KViews1like9Commentsdata size or backup size of a SQL policy in opscenter
Hi experts, symantec opscenter analytics.Version 7.5.0.1. Q1) i need to customize a report which displays data size or backup size of a SQL policy only full backup schedule. please suggest how to configure it. Q2)i need to customize a report which displays data size or backup sizeof an individual client. Q3)i need to customize a report which displaysdata size or backup sizeof a group of clients. They are not in a single policy. but need their data size for a week.524Views1like1CommentNBU / Ops Center Reporting - VMware Query Based Policies
When running VMware policy types, and selecting VM's via query, what is the best / recommended way to report onthe status of clients which were scheduled to backup in the previous 24hrs ? i.e. success / failure / missed. I don't see an issue with the success / failure reports as they are covered in the standard set of reports, but how do I best see if a client backup which was schedules to run did not run (i.e. was missed for any reason) ? I need to be able the schedule a report to run each morning to provide this information. Site in question does NOT have analytics. Thanks, AJ1.1KViews1like3CommentsOpscenter reports
We have a report configured in Opscenter that sends out everyday to report failed jobs. For the most part it works quite well, however, recently we began using NBU for vmware and not instead of a specific server being listed as a failure, all that is reported is the media server. Obviously this is not helpful as what we want to see is the individual VMs that might have failed for whatever reason. Is there any way to modify to report to display the individual VMs that failed backup or is this a short coming of the report and I must instead rely on the activity monitor to see specific servers? Thanks.824Views1like6CommentsWhere is my space? (Opscenter Reporting)
OK, so long story short the past week my 5220 appliance has been close to useless. While things hummed along nicely for the initial months (4), as expected space usage slowly began creeping up. First 60% and then 80%, but it sat in the 80's for a number of weeks, so it seemed this is where we would sort of plan to be. Well, no, within roughly 1-2 weeks, we went from this acceptable capacity to 100%. Yes, 100%, someone set highwater to 100% and in the end our appliance was cooked, Status 129 all the way, restores were not possible either, so we turned to support. After several days of cleaning things out, we managed to get to a point we could at least get the appliance online again. However, by no means did this mean we could use it. The appliance functioned as a media server, reading VM's, sending them to a data domain appliance and it seemed we were in the clear while we cleaned up more space on the 5220. But, as luck would have it, the DD also filled and we resorted to using advanced disk to stage data and then SLPs to send it to tape. Long story short, we are just getting by as things are made useful again and the only way to make the 5220 useful is to free up lots of space, so the plan is to get the largest systems off of it. I guess I would rather have several systems use the appliance and one write to tape as opposed to several to tape so that one can use the appliance. My goal is to get a report out of opscenter that tells me what is using all of my space. I expired image after image, but each time I did I did not gain any space. In talking with support this is normal with deduplicated data and the images as each can be really small. Therefore, I need to find the ones that are really big and get them off of there until we can manage to get more appliances to increase capacity. I hunted around in opscenter, but nothing appeared to be the report I am looking for. All I want is a list of sort that says, these 5 machines use 10TB while these 300+ use 50TB and then just show me what each system is using so I can dupe those to tape and expire the images off disk. Is such a report possible? Be it SQL or with the Wizard this report would help me in a huge way. Thanks1.1KViews1like2Comments
