How to Turn Legato Storage Manager Off

[Brett A. Weber]

I keep getting this message in syslog:

Legato Storage Manager Media: Critial backup to
pool Default waiting for 1 writable backup tape.

We don't use this for backup and I want to
disable this. I can kill the process but it
keeps coming back. It is not in my boot
start up script and I can find this.

How do I turn this software off?

Thank you for your help,

There has to be a startup script somewhere in bootup. Look in /sbin/rc1.d, /sbin/rc2.d, /sbin/rc3.d. Somewhere in here is the script that starts and stops it. Look in /sbin/rc0.d for the shutdown script.

No it's not in any of the start up scripts I've
checked several time. I think it was some
demo software installed (before my time) and
I just need to find the file where it is and
delete it.

But I can't find where it was installed or
deposited. I can't even find a process for
it with a PID.

I tried calling HP support but they don't
support Legato anymore and Legato won't help
me unless I have a support contract.

Any clues? I've been looking all over for where
this software is stored on my unix box.

I beliveve the startup/shutdown script is called /sbin/init.d/networker.

Config file should be /etc/rc.config.d/networker.

To stop: /sbin/init.d/networker stop

To keep off after reboot: Edit /etc/rc.config.d/networker and change 1 to 0 (or better yet, swremove LSM (Legato Storage Manager)

As an aside, I've found that recent Oracle installation CDs try to install Legato Storage Manager - I don't know why. I now edit the installation script (root.sh?) that the DBAs ask us to run and comment out the offending lines.

Try the command 'nsrshutdown'. That is the command that can be used to stop Legato if you don't use the /sbin/init.d scripts.

just to correct what Patrick said. Use:

nsr_shutdown
