indexstripe header not valid - error
Hello,
I finally got and deployed Avamar VE to my test lab. It was fresh clean install as it is described in the Installation Guide (OVF option)
So
1. I deployed Avamar VE
2. Disable vCenter certificate authentication (as otherwise I would not be able to add vCenter)
3. Added VC
4. Deployed Virtual Machine Combined Proxy - and added it to Avamar
5. Now when I start Avamar Administrator I got multiple indexstripe::ispresent stripe=0.0-7 proxy=0.0-7 indexstripe header not valid errors and they ruin all the testing work
6. This could be not related but Backup test I run yesterday stuck in waiting status.

hello angrydok
for such issues there is procedure to perform test integrity on particular stripe or rebuild it as well .
From my part of view it will be better to contact EMC support and open case with them.
thanks, regards,

Since I am not a customer yet - I guess I do not have direct access to support.
Sound useless to rebuild as I just configured fresh install
What is to perform test integrity on particular stripe?
Thank you for you help!

cplist --full output:
cp.20130726051137 Fri Jul 26 09:11:37 2013 valid --- --- nodes 1/1 stripes 25
Date is different as VMware time was changed.
Where/how could I get STRIPE_ID? - got it from the error log stripes 6-E reported check of failed errors

Ok testinegrity/rebuild integrity gives me MSG_ERR_NOPARITY
I guess it points out that partitions where not created correctly, however it was done as a step of the pre installation task...
But I got another question then - during OVF deployment I set up 3 additional disks as user guide described, I set them into Think disks - could that be a problem?

Hello angrydok,
I understand.
well give a try with this one first .
# avmaint testintegrity --ava
then you could involve
# avmaint rebuildstripe --ava
Do you have validated CP ? Can you give us output from the cplist
# cplist --full
thanks, regards,

If you want to troubleshoot on your own, then I'd suggest looking for clues in the following files
/data01/cur/err.log
/data01/cur/gsan.log
