nsradmin: different 'client id's shown in output using show

LS,

  when I execute the following in nsradmin:

nsradmin> show

Will show all attributes

nsradmin> print type: nsr client; name: quercus0329s
                        type: NSR client;
                        name: quercus0329s;
                      server: quercus0616s;
                   client id: \
0ee0bc9f-00000004-4e48ec03-4e5b8e32-add2acb8-7966896f;
            scheduled backup: Enabled;
< >
nsradmin> show name; client id
nsradmin> print type: nsr client; name: quercus0329s
                        name: quercus0329s;
                   client id: \
8ee8c8a9-00000004-4dc8d9e2-4dc8fa73-0354acb8-7966896f;
nsradmin>

Notice the different client id's. Has someone got an explanation?

Many thanks, Edgar.

Hi,

This does seem odd.  I don't know why but it would seem like you have duplicate clientid's for the client and depending on which way you issue the command, a different one is being picked up.  What I find easiest in cases like this is to get a full list of everything and have a look through that to see what's in there.  To output a list of all of the clients, just create a small file:

[root@vm-lego-230 Bobby]# more input_nsradmin
option hidden
p type: NSR client
q

[blank line here]


[root@vm-lego-230 Bobby]# nsradmin -i input_nsradmin > vmlego230_NSR_Client.cfg

This will create a file (here it's vmlego230_NSR_Client.cfg) with the full output of every NSR client resource.  This should give you a better idea of what's going on.

You can also check the correct clientid for the client in the NMC to compare.  If there's been a backup against a client with the incorrect clientid, then you can find it using mminfo.

There's more details on duplicate clientid's and what to do with them here:
