make_net_recovery problem

[Robert Manocchia_1]

We run the make_net_recovery on a daily basis. The actual command line we use follows:

make_net_recovery -s ${IGNITE_SERVER} -a ${IGNITE_SERVER}:${DEPO
T}/${HOST} -x inc_entire=vg00 -v -n 2"

On one of our servers we are getting the following error:

ERROR: "/var/opt/ignite/recovery/client_mnt/0x00306E071C19/recovery/2006-01-30,20:00/archive_cfg", line 1: syntax error.

Before that we received the following warning:

WARNING: There is a problem reading a file list line, cannot obtain "time stamp" field for file: /var/adm/sw/save/PHSS_26619/DDX-SLS/usr/lib/X11/Xserver/modules/screens/hp.

Any ideas on what's wrong?

Shalom Robert,

Interesting problem.

1) dmesg perhaps run cstm/mstm/xstm and make sure the disk(s) that contain /var are all good.

2) swverify \* Any patches that come up corrupt should be removed(swremove) and re-installed(swinstall)

3) If /var diskspace is low:
cleanup -c 1

This will clean up superseded patches from /var

I'm thinking there is a disk error or problem where that file is sitting in /var/adm/sw

could you post the results from

# ll /var/adm/sw/save/PHSS_26619/DDX-SLS/usr/lib/X11/Xserver/modules/screens

Here is a screen capture of the long listing:

Hi,

As indicated in the Warning message, the time stamp of the file couldn't be obtained.
Check the file "/var/adm/sw/save/PHSS_26619/DDX-SLS/usr/lib/X11/Xserver/modules/screens/hp" using ll and file command.

Check the "flist" file where the file has got entry, you won't find there the date and time of last modification of the file in a field.
/var/opt/ignite//recovery//flist

Sameer:

Here is the entry for the files in question in the flist file for the last good run of make_net_recovery for this server:

Anything you can tell me?

[Robert Manocchia_1]

I solved it. I ran touch -t 0511040000 for the files in question to reset the timestamp to the date displayed when I did a long listing on the files.

Thanks for all you help.
