networker client V2.09 on a VAX

Question

Hi All,

1. Customer is using Legato Networker server 7.1-4 on Windows 2003 system.

2. Legato client on a ES47 with Charon VAX is V2.09 with VMAS V6.2 and V5.5-2. (Recently upgraded from V2.08).

Issue : After up gradation incremental backups are not working and its running as full backup that's why its taking long time.

Is there any patch available for this?

Please help...

Thanks,

K.

Hi,Thanks for the information.As you are saying this may be problem with index, can we ask customer to run manual backup from client and check the speed.K.

OK, but how is the speed related to this now? I thought you said problem is that each backup gets promoted to full (and I suspect you should see message somewhere in logs which indicates that too in case that index is the issue).

Maybe it is an issue with index rather then client version. You may wish to check this with support even I must say that my experience with EMC support with anything related to VMS is really bad.

I have asked for logs once i receive the same check for index.Thanks,K.

I have got the logs and checked but couldnot get any problem with the configuration.

Here one point to be noted:

1. When customer reverted back to old client version (V.2.0.8) from (V.2.0.9) everything is working fine and he is able perform incremental backup.

If you have any update on this please do let me know.

Thanks,
K

Well, I would check what is the difference between those two versions and read release notes to see if there is something like that mentioned. If not simply open that with support and supply the logs. It sounds as 2.0.9 is breaking this in your environment and unless it is documented somewhere then it sounds like a code problem.
