Virtual TapeServer 8.2 Release Notes

Known Issues | 46
 Stacked exports may appear to fail when they succeed when TSM is in use. TSM
may log warnings or errors that do not affect the backup. However, the job may be listed
as failed in the job log and web interface. (TL-7221, EAR 8332)
WORKAROUND: To be sure the export succeeded, check the hsmput.log file for a line
like “Archive processing of '/tmp/Hao4yrDSVk' finished without failure”.
 Stacked Export and Migrate cannot be used at the same time. If so, both will fail
and create trouble loading web interface pages. (TL-7392, TL-7391)
 Erased cartridge is not being unmigrated when host requests the cartridge.
When a host requests the cartridge after it is migrated and then erased, the cartridge
should be unmigrated before it is mounted for the host to retrieve. Instead, if the cartridge
is in a VTL, the cartridge is mounted when it is empty and not restored prior to being
mounted. (TL-4806)
WORKAROUND: Remove the cartridge from the VTL and manually unmigrate the
cartridge. Then, re-insert the cartridge into the VTL and issue the restore command from
the host.
 Login path for CommVault 8 set to /opt/galaxy/Base/qlogin. The path should be set
to /opt/simpana/Base. (TL-5707)
WORKAROUND: Use the following commands as root:
mkdir /opt/galaxy
ln -s /opt/simpana/Base /opt/galaxy/Base
 Unmigrating encrypted pool fails. After migrating an encrypted pool, the Unmigrate
button on the Configure Tapes and Pools page does not successfully unmigrate the pool.
(TL-5997)
WORKAROUND: Unmigrate the cartridges individually.
 Stacked export fails to erase cartridge after export if
hsm_erase_after_backup=”YES”. If the hsm_erase_after_backup parameter is set to
“YES” in vts.conf, the stacked export operation will not erase the cartridge. (TL-4804)
 erase_when_complete parameter needed for the Stacked Export job
configuration. This flag will be used to determine if the exported cartridges should be
erased. Existing jobs won't have the flag and will be executed without erase. (TL-4854)
 Stacked exports do not work with SDLT VTLs. The drives are not associated with
the library. (TL-4669)
 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)
 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)
