Ignite Backup

Karen Weikel — Wed, 07 Feb 2007 09:39:58 GMT

I have 4 servers that are contacted by a 5th Ignite server to do make_net_recovery to the 5th server. This has worked for the last 2 years without fail. This month the backups stopped working. I don't get any error messages in any file that I know of. I am stumped as to what to even look at. I run the sysbackup script on my Ignite server, it exports the correct file systems, I get the message the the Operating System Backup has begun for dsd00101. Then it says "Connection to dsd00101 closed. That is it, no other message, nothing. Is there a way to run a debug version to see what is happening or does anyone have any idea what could have happened that the backups don't work? Or are there other log files besides /usr/local/etc/recovery.log that I can check?
Thanks

If you run the make_net_recovery command manually you might get some additional info.

No summary of solution or closure of problem, so you will have to repeat the investigation, but at least you'll have a starting point.
