Frecover error retrieving all files

mjroux — Mon, 29 Aug 2011 14:00:46 GMT

Hello,

I'm trying to use fbackup/frecover on an itanium + utrium tape drive (11iv3).

Fbackup seems to be Ok, no error message while proceeding.

But frecover cannot use the tape.

It may read the header and the index but it isn't able to restore all files, it ask for a second volume.

However the first files on the tape are readable.

This problem occurs with new tapes, and with older tapes created on a parisc and an older version of fbackup.

Here are the messages from fbackup & frecover

f: fbackup -f /dev/rmt/0m -i /u02/exportations/ -i /home/prg/ACPRO>

fbackup(1004) : la session commence sur Lundi 29 août 2011 15:45:45

frecover(5412) : Voulez-vous essayer de récupérer ce volume? (nN])/^([nN]|[nN][oO][nN])) n

frecover(5411) : Voulez-vous essayer un autre volume? (nN])/^([nN]|[nN][oO][nN])) n

frecover(4301) : /u02/exportations/histo/V5-32bits/DUMP_BASE_03_V5_32bits.tar.gz non récupéré depuis le support de sauvegarde

The backup set for these session was a small one. The file to restore is the last of the set according to the index file.

J also tried the tar command, but encountered no errors.

Thanks for any help.

Hi:

Have you tried cleaning the drive?

Hi,

thank for your reply.

The tape drive is brand new ( out of the box ).

Anyway, J will try this !

Edit :

No difference after cleaning.

Hi,

The hpsupport give me the solution.

The patch "RAID-01 (ciss) HP-UX Mass Storage Driver for Smart Array HBAs" was missing on the server.

After installation no more problem.

Thank for readings and reply.
