Virtual TapeServer 6.04.04 for NonStop Servers Release Notes

Resolved Issues and Enhancements | 15

Migration

 NetBackup migrate jobs were marked with “Success message not found” errors.

The success message was written to the NetBackup log after the log was captured by the

hsmput.pl script. Now, a delay occurs before capturing the log file. (TL-4096, EAR 6145)

AutoCopy and Instant DR

 Instant DR and AutoCopy configuration instructions were incomplete. The

installation instructions describing how to properly configure RSH have been clarified.

(TL-4728)

 Retry message erroneously given when AutoCopy started. An erroneous error was

given when AutoCopy was started:

2009-11-25

(retry: 1) of /VAULT02/SYDB_TAPEPOOL/B00036 started

instead of the correct starting message:

2009-11-25

VAULT02/SYDB_TAPEPOOL/B00036 started

This has been fixed. (TL-4034, EAR 5982)

EMS

 EMS connections to host server using SSH did not work after upgrading. After

upgrading to 6.04.03 IR2, EMS connections to the host server using SSH may not have

worked. The problem has been fixed. (TL-4919)

 Keep-alive messages were sent more often than defined by Keep Alive Interval.

Though the Keep Alive Interval value was set, the VTS server sent messages more

frequently. This has been fixed. (TL-4450, EAR 6438)

 Split EMS lines may not have matched, causing missed mounts. Backups ran

slowly and mounts were missed if the mount line was split into two lines that should be

matched by MATCH 61 (first line) and MATCH 62 (second line); the first line was not

matched. This caused the MATCH 62 to skip the mount because the variables that should

be set by the first line were not set. This has been fixed. (TL-4039, EAR 5671, EAR 5929)

 Tapes were mounted as “tape not write enabled”. In rare cases, tapes were mounted

by EMS but the tape was not write enabled. The backup hung until the tape was

unmounted and remounted. This no longer occurs. (TL-3147)

Utilities and services

 vts-post-install.log could not be viewed from Examine All Logs page. The vts-post-

install.log file was listed on the page but attempting to view it showed an empty log. This

has been fixed. (TL-4392)
