Omniback II 4.0 linux client import error 12:1625

Carlos Molina — Thu, 17 Jan 2002 01:40:30 GMT

Hi.

I have some problems importing a linux machine to a win2000 cell manager.
When I do the import operation on the cell manager, I got the following error
Import host failde
12:1625

I re checked my DNS setups , and make a nslookup / ping on the cell manager and on the linux machine, and we don??t have resolutions problems.
On the client log, i have this
[SYSTEM.NT AUTHORITY@test-2000] : .util

Note that the cell manager is test-2000 and the linux machine is test.
I recheck all the linux install process, and all is fine.
I have rsh , rexec and the other services running.
My tcpwrapper hosts.allow file have something like this
ALL: ALL # only for testing

I don??t know what can I solve this problem.

I appreciate you help.

Please, drop me an email to cmolina@net-uno.net

Thanks in advance.

Carlos

I had a similar problem with a linux client, and here is what I did to solve it:

mv /etc/resolv.conf to /etc/resolv.conf.save. You can mv it back after the installation.

In your /etc/nsswitch file, make sure you have this line:
hosts: files [NOTFOUND=continue] dns

add the host name of your cell manager to the /etc/hosts file of your linux client.

I hope that helps,

Jim

Thanks for your help Jim.
After do the steps , that you told me, I got the following error on the linux machine (client)

01/17/02 12:03:57 INET.12243.0 ["inet/allow_deny.c /main/7":524] A.04.00 b383
A request 0 came from host which is not a cell manager of this client
Thu Jan 17 12:03:57 2002 [MCRS_USER.MCRS_GROUP@cmolina-2000] : .util

The win2000 cell manager is cmolina-2000
and on the /usr/omni/config/cell/cell_server i have this
cmolina-2000

I am not sure, what is the problem now, but I think, that we are near to resolve this..:-)

Thanks a lot.

The only other thing I can suggest is:
On the windows machine, type:
ipconfig /all and find this:
"Connection-specific DNS suffix"
better known as your domain name.

On the linux client, edit your /etc/hosts file and, if you haven't already, add the fully qualified hostname of the cell manager on the same line where you added the hostname, so that you have something like this:

ipaddress hostname hostname.domainname

That's all on one line.

Good Luck,

Jim

Nothing happens.
The error message is the same.
I cannot believe that this software being harder to install...:-)

If anybody have another recommendation, please let me know.
Thanks a lot.

I have another tip for the case.
I runned a debug on the inet client (linux), and I found this.

+ COMMAND=INCLUDE
+ shift
+ PARAMS=cmolina-2000
+ init_var cmolina-2000
++ uname -a
+ UNAME=Linux cmolina 2.2.19pre17 #1 Tue Mar 13 22:37:59 EST 2001 i686 unknown

+ SERVER=cmolina-2000
+ '[' cmolina-2000 '!=' cmolina-2000 ']'
+ return 0
+ exit 0

Look at this line on the debug
+ SERVER=cmolina-2000
+ '[' cmolina-2000 '!=' cmolina-2000 ']'

I don't undertsand this .

On another point, i re-install the client, and I see looked at this warning.

./.omnirc.TMPL
./.VersionCORE
./.CII_CORE
./CORE.fileset
WARNING: Update of the omni_info file failed for CORE!
OmniBackII Software package successfully installed

I think that there is a bug on the omni_rinstall.sh script that cause the instalation don't work fine.
Indeed, the omni_info file don't exist on the client...!!!

Anubody can show me what an omni_info file example..??

Thanks a lot.

Ok.

I got the solution.

The problem is on the omni_rinstall.sh script
There isn??t a good documentation about the scripts parameters.
The main problem is that the key paramater is not case sentitive and is one of the following keywords.
Core,da,ma,etc.

This is not documented anywhere on the omniback 4 manuals.
Indeed, you MUST to install first the core component, then, the disk agent, and finally from the cell manager, import the client.

Hope this help to others guys.

Good luck for all.
