Virtual TapeServer 6.04.02 for NonStop Servers Release Notes

Known Issues | 21
 VTSPolicy TSM Archive command for a vault results in an error message.
Issuing a VTSPolicy TSM Archive command for a vault will fail to back up the vault. An
error message such as “Error: /VAULT00 not on this system” will be written to the VTS
log. (TL-221)
WORKAROUND: A vault may be backed up by issuing VTSPolicy TSM Archive
commands for the individual pools or cartridges in the vault.
Scan/Cleanup
 Cartridges are not erased when expected if cleanup_autoerase is configured.
Scheduled erasures do not occur when scheduled, though they are eventually erased. (TL-
2388)
 If cleanup_minimum_size_GB and cleanup_minimum_size_MB are not
configured for Scan/Cleanup, cartridges may be erroneously erased. If you
specify 0 for either of these parameters, all files can be erased. (TL-3050)
 Scan/Cleanup page size column reports size on disk of cartridges rather than
data size. The size column on the Scan/Cleanup page shows the file size on disk. Thus,
cartridge data is different on this page than on other pages in the web interface. (TL-2158)
 Scan/Cleanup menu option may not be available. Customers using the Scan/
Cleanup feature should confirm that the VTS configuration file contains the
menu_ScanCleanup=”YES” parameter, which displays the scan/cleanup option from
the window drop-down list on the Virtual Media page (TL-505).
WORKAROUND: Add this line to the VTS configuration file. To edit the VTS
configuration file, click Supervisor Functions on the navigation pane, and then click
Edit VTS Configuration File under the Utilities section of the resulting page.
 Cartridge having less than minimum size is listed as erasable in Scan/Cleanup
after migration. If a cartridge is below the size specified by the cleanup_minimum_size_
MB parameter, the cartridge is scheduled to be erased by Scan/Cleanup after migration.
This is incorrect behavior; it should not be scheduled for erasure. (TL-444)
Migration
 Cartridge not ejected after migration by Legato. After migration is completed, the
cartridge should be ejected and put back in the tape slot. If Legato is used to migrate the
tape, the tape is not ejected as expected. (TL-2390)
 Misconfigured migration settings cause “Error: Can't find any files with data to
backup” error. If you do not specify a BMA in vts.conf, or if you misconfigure a
migration setting, the “Error: Can't find any files with data to backup“message is
displayed, which does not indicate the problem. (TL-2645)
 Error, miscellaneous messages logged after successful NetBackup migration.
Message similar to the following are logged in the debug log after a successful migration
with NetBackup 6.5:
