Networker 7.6 SP1 NDMP fails

We've got the following constellation:

Celarra NS480(NDMP Filer)-------Networker--------Data Domain 670

The backuparea in the celerra is realized via a Virtual Datamover.

When we start the backup the following error ocurrs:

Networkerside:

3:nsrdsa_save: Unable to determine parent jobid, continuing
6900:nsrdsa_save: Update of job cmd line attribute failed.
39078:nsrdsa_save: JOBS error: Please pass a valid jobid

42658:nsrdsa_save: DSA savetime = 1297338549
NDMP Service Debug: The process id for NDMP service is 0x33928010
42909:nsrndmp_save: Performing DAR Backup..

42597:nsrndmp_save: data connect: failed to establish connection
42886:nsrndmp_save: Unable to start the NDMP backup process.
nsrdsa_save : Aborted
42913:nsrndmp_save: Save session closed with NW server successfully

Celerraside:

Thanks in advance

Hello David,

it had never worked so far. The parameters we've used are nsrndmp_save -T dump -M

Applicationinformation:

DSA=y

UPDATE=y
HIST=y

During the Abortion the Networker writes an Indexfile of 1 kb.

I'm greatful for any ideas.

Has this ever worked before?  What parameters have you set?

The latest 7.6.1.3 Cumulative hotfix has quite a few NDMP fixes in it including:

NW123608: NDMP DSA backups do not run successfully when the -P parameter is specified

NW117744: nsrdsa_save core dump randomly on Solaris

I would recommend unpgrading to this and rerunning. You can find it on the NetWorker Support webpage on Powerlink:

Hope this is helpful. Please do post and let us know.

Cheers,

Steve

Hello Steven,

thanks for your quick advice. Unfortunately the hotfix did not solve the problem. The error that occurs is still the same as before.

Meanwhile, I opened a support ticket at EMC.

When i'll get a solution i'll post it right here.

Best Regards,

Thomas
