Known Issues | 24
 Default vts.conf file does not include migrate_all parameter. This parameter can
be set to allow all cartridges, including empty ones, to be migrated. This parameter is not
present in the default configuration file. (TL-3950)
 Migrate all does not export all cartridges. If the migrate_all parameter is set,
cartridges are migrated but not exported. (TL-3954)
 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:
Fri Nov 7 14:45:27 2008: [slave_signal_thread 15713] SIGCHLD received
while no active child, ignoring it.
Fri Nov 7 14:45:32 2008: [cli_tape 0x05000107] ERROR UNKNOWN tape
command 0x44 for Id 0
Fri Nov 07 14:46:15 2008: [lsof.pl] Error: lsof.pl /usr/sbin/lsof |
grep "/VAULT00/MAXPOOL/MAX001" 2>&1 failed!, rc=1, error=No system
error detected. Please check application logs for application errors.
(errno=-1).
These messages are benign and can be ignored. (TL-2347)
 The hsm_summary_limit configuration parameter is not used. This parameter
should not be used. (TL-2272)
 Unable to unmigrate a pool. You cannot unmigrate the cartridges in a pool by selecting
the pool; you must select individual cartridges. (TL-386)
EMS
 Supervisory Functions page shows EMS started when it did not. If EMS could not
be started, the System Status page indicates that it is not running while the Supervisory
Functions page shows EMS as started. (TL-3788)
 Cannot edit or delete host pair after adding and deleting multiple host pairs. On
the EMS Configuration page, if you add or delete multiple host devices (in the EMS Hosts
section of the page) without saving, you may be unable to edit or delete a host device. (TL-
3190)
WORKAROUND: Save the EMS configuration and reload the page.
 Enable Keep Alive and Enable Host Notifications must be selected to enable
keep-alive messaging. You must enable both options to enable EMS keep-alive
messages. (TL-3152)
 When mounting a cartridge over another using the web interface, the second
does not get mounted if the first cartridge is already dismounted. The web
interface may not always be accurate in the state of the tapes in the tape drive. (TL-1752)
WORKAROUND: Refresh the interface and try again.
