Duplication between DataDomains partially failing
Hello, we are currently facing strange behaviour during the duplication process between two Dell Data Domains. Basically, there are on source location 3 VMs with respective VMware backups that are duplicated to the target location. All settings, software, hardware are same, there are no differences but the duplication job is successful only for 2 VMs, the last one always fails and is not possible to duplicate in any time. Job error log: Critical bpdm (pid=11720) sts_copy_extent failed: error 2060046 plugin error Critical bpdm (pid=11720) image copy failed: error 2060046: plugin error Error bpdm (pid=11720) cannot copy image from disk, bytesCopied = 0 Error bpduplicate (pid=205144) host MediaServer 1 backup id VMabc123 optimized duplication failed, media write error (84). Error bpduplicate (pid=205144) Duplicate of backupid XXXXXX failed, media write error (84). Error bpduplicate (pid=205144) Status = no images were successfully processed. I've tried to used different Media server, new storage unit, restarting the duplication chain, restarting every single part of the hardware infrastructure, nothing helped, situation remained same - two VMs are always successfully duplicated, one keeps failing. What should be check in such case as a next step? Thank you. Tomas
Update Remote Host on DDBoost Association
Hello Community, We recently relocated our backup environment to a new physical location which forced us to change the domain suffix of our NBU environment and Data Domain. The prefix/hostname has stayed the same. We have NBU AIR configured with DDBOOST/EMC Data Domains. So initially we used this similar article to configure NBU Air for a Data Domain (https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.100015147_ however with the move now the remote host information has changed and should be updated. Can this be edited or does the association have to be destroyed and recreated? Sorry for the lame dns suffixes but had to generalize it.. original location: westcoast.acme.corp new location: eastcoast.acme.corp So westcoast.acme.corp needs to be updated to eastcoast.acme.corp ddboost association show Local Storage Unit Direction Remote Host Remote Storage Unit Import To ------------------ -------------- ----------------------- ------------------- --------- air_lsu replicate-from dest.westcoast.acme.corp remote_local local_lsu replicate-to dest.westcoast.acme.corp remote_air_lsu - ------------------ -------------- ----------------------- ------------------- --------- Thanks so much.
OST upgrade
Hi, I need to upgrade OST plugin on Linux Media servers 7.7.2 because we have Data Domain OS upgrade lined up. Current OST version is 2.6.x and plan is to upgrade it to 3.2.5.0. As per DD Documentation i just need to stop NBU service on media server and install OST binaries and it will overwrite old OST binaries. My question is do i need to make any other change in NBU or DD for upgrading OST plugin and making it work except stopping NBU services and simply installing OST binaries?
Dual NIC Media Server credentials already exist - OST / Data Domain
Hi all, I have a new Media Server with dual NICs, separate IP address and hostname for each, e.g. nbuserver-a & nbuserver-b. Both entries registered as Media Servers in the NBU domain. When attempting to add these two entities to the list of Media Servers able to address a Storage Server (OST-based Data Domain), I can add one but not the other. Error message advises 'Credentials already exist (99)' when attempting to add the second - as in picture attached. Any idea where I'm going wrong?
