image dont exist but SLP tries to expire (error 228)
I mistakenly deleted an image from the catalog, which I backed up again and has its copy on tape, but the deleted image gives error 228 when trying to expire since it does not exist. I deleted the version of the SLP in which that policy was, but the versions are created again since there are other policies associated with the same slp. What can I do to prevent this expiration from being executed? windows server 2023 Netbackup 8.1.2 If anyone can help me I will be very grateful.Solved923Views0likes6Commentsdisable storage lifecycle policy

Hi guys, I just want to know if there's a specific NBU command/syntax to get the duration and speed of replication that lapse in Activity Monitor. I've tried the command "nbstlutil" but there's no output I needed.

I was looking into writing a script to manipulate SLPs and I can use nbstl command to do that. However, in some cases it is just easier to copy an SLP to a new one. I couldn't find the equivalent of "Copy to New..." action of the GUI in the command line details of nbstl. Is there another way to do it via command line?801Views0likes3Commentsconfigure SLP for duplication on tape
I am using Veritas NetBackup 7.7.3. I have configure SLP for duplication on tape. We are making three copy of my monthly backup. Primary on DataDomain, 2nd and 3rd on Tape. My queries are: How duplication will start (After completing backup job, both duplication (copy2 & copy3) will start simultaniously or copy3 will start after completing copy2)? As I saw in my environment that both copies are starting simultaniously so that case what is the recommandation for getting better performance? Can we make change so that copy3 will start after completing copy2? If yes please help me with the process.Solved1.6KViews0likes2CommentsSLP configuration

Hello All, I had to replace some hardware in a tape drive (picker & drive). The tape # changed from tld4 to tld3. Of course after the fact I'm getting errors (2001) because Version 8 of the SLP is still trying to process to tld 4 that doesn't exist. Is there an easy way to fix this? I'm a gui girl. Can I remove/delete slps? or change I modify the previous version to point to the new tld3? SLPs are great , but not when you have to modify. You either have to change all the policies or the SLP. Or create a new one, but how does that help the old images that are incomplete?Solved2.8KViews0likes10CommentsAccelerator for a VMWare Backup Policy with AIR
Hello Experts, I am using NBU 7.7.3. I have a VMWare policy querying a cluster for an annotation to backup some clients. This policy has 4 schedules. Each Schedule has override policy storage selection checked with a corresponding AIR (Automated Image Replication) SLP's as the selection. The Storage selected in the SLP is an EMC DataDomain Storage unit (Using OST Plugin) setup as a Source for AIR. Attached some screenshots. With this setup, Should the 'Use Accelarator' Option be available for selection on the policy? Currently I see it grayed out.3.3KViews0likes9CommentsSLP not duplicating
Hi. So we got a problem with our SLP doing duplications. We are currently running Netbackup 7.6.1, one masterserver, and 3 media servers. Windows 2008 R2 We are running all duplications to tape, a dell TL4000. We run 7 different SLP's where 2 of these duplicates to tape. Here comes our problem, one of these two SLP jobs wont duplicate the data to tape. It just keeps putting the data in backlog. The backupjob runs fine, but when its time for the SLP to run duplication, it nevere starts. nbstlutil stlilist -image_incomplete -U Image fil4.hedmark.org_1510305239 for Lifecycle DAS102-ADV-Year is IN_PROCESS Copy to nb-media1-hcart-robot-tld-0 of type DUPLICATE is NOT_STARTED The problem is, the backupjob is done, but it says "IN_PROCESS". I've tried the following: Cancled all jobs running on the SLP. Then manually run them again. Delete the SLP and created it again. Booted all master and media servers. When running the duplication manually from "Catalog" it works fine. And the other SLP runs just fine, duplicates to tape no problem. Any ideas?3.4KViews0likes3CommentsMoving Existing NBU Jobs to SLP
Hello! Quick question about NBU SLP: I have MANY backup jobs / policies configured for non-SLP fixed retention to disk. I have full backups of all the data to disk storage and nightly incrementals that have been running for two weeks. I want to enable SLP polices for all these jobs as I now have additional storage I can duplicate to. If I create the SLP policy and change the policy storage from the disk to SLP, do I have to run full backups again (or wait for them to run per the existing rentention schedule) for SLP to duplicate the data, or will the change in the policy enable it the next time they run per schedule? Asked another way: The full backups won't happen per existing schedule for two more weeks. When I enable SLP for these existing jobs, will the existing full backup from two weeks prior and all incrementals be duplicated? Or... will only the new incrementals be duplicated until the next scheduled full backup runs?Solved1.3KViews0likes4Comments
