Hi David,

Would you mind please to let us all know the resolution of the problem?

If it was a firewall issue kindly share the information with us.

Thank you.

Carlos.

What changes where made to Firewall? I'm seeing the exact same thing

Hi Broeste,

If I remember well the changes were simply open the ports both ways in the firewall 7937 to 9936 (or whatever ports were configured in NW) and also the Replication Manager ones 6728 and 6729, despite these shouldn't be needed if there is no proxy server.

Thank you.

Carlos.

Hi Carlos,

Thanks for your reply

No, this is not a proxy node. Any idea what then is causing this? The customef has an urgent restore so I will open up a sr with emc later today

Hi Broeste,

I would need to have some further information, in fact nmm.raw would help a lot.

There is also a new build of NMM 2.3 (109), which fixes some issues with the restores.

You can find it here:

ftp://ftp.legato.com/pub/NetWorker/NMM/Cumulative_Hotfixes/2.3/

Thank you.

Carlos.

Well, this is actually build 109. I had problems with build 79 and thought an upgrade might fix the issue but I guess not.

Here is some output from the nmm.raw

Hi Thomas,

Have you checked the dameon.raw on the client?

If this is a directed restore, have you checked the nmm.raw in both clients?

Have you find any useful information in the system and/or Application event logs on the server where you started the restore from?

If you opened an SR and have any input please let us know.

Thank you.

Carlos

Yep, nothing usefull in the daemon.raw. This is an Exchange 2010 DAG setup, so I'm trying a RDB restore. I has worked before but for some reason it stopped. There is nothing to find in the event/application log.

I will create the SR now and hopefully a solution will be found soon. I will keep you updated

Hi Thomas,

What about the Exchange event logs, did you find any RBAC event id 17?

Did you run NMM Config Checker? If so, any warning or failure?

Did you check the Replication Manager logs? With NMM Config Checker also NMM Log viewer gets installed, and that tool will help you to go through the RM logs.

Anyway let us know the outcome of the SR.

Thank you.

Carlos.
