Cannot enable rule after restore

hi, all,

After I install AutoStart 5.3.SP3, I put my backup.def to the directory "C:\Program Files\EMC\AutoStart\ENvPlus\bin", while ENvPlus is the domain name I created during installation.

Then I ran the command "ftcli –domain ENvPlus –cmd restore & ftcli –domain ENvPlus –cmd “enableRule SysStateRule”"

SysStateRule is the rule I created in the backup.def.

Then the configuration was successfully done and the rule and other objects are created successfully, but the rule wasn't enabled, and I got the following error:

No AutoStart Primary Agents were found that would accept our connection.

Connection Unsuccessfully attempted at:

cnnms501

I think this is because when the "enableRule SysStateRule" is ran, the agent was restarted, but I'm not sure. Can anyone assure this?

Will the restore command lead to the agent restart?

Since this command works well in Legato 5.1, and the rule was enabled after the script ran, or after the agent is restarted.

Is there some workaround to this problem?

Hello again - no, the agent should not restart after the import of the backup .def file. For some reason it was down when you issued the enableRule command. Check the log file for the possible cause.

Thanks for your reply.

After the Agent restarted, I can enable the rule manually. So is it possible the problem is with the backup.def?

I've checked the file "autoRecover.log" under "C:\Program Files\EMC\AutoStart\ENvPlus\log\agent", the content is as follows:

Running auto-recover script.

Backbone has failed. Restarting Agent.

Complete.

there is one file "MirrorUnconfig.log" under this directory with the following context.

.\MirrorConfig: output will be redirected to ../log/agent/MirrorUnconfig.log

Ah, the error is caused by the fact that the EMC Mirror Data Sources do not get completely recreated when importing the backup file. That s because the mirror data source and corresponding services store the confguration in the registry. Importing the backup file recreates the configuration of the data sources in Autostart config, but not the registry part. Unfortunately these data sources have to be recreated manually. It still should no cause the backbone to restart at least from my experience.

Thanks for your timely reply!

After the AutoStart is installed, the "MirrorUnconfig.log" is there.

I use one backup.def configured by us own to restore the AutoStart configuration.

After investigation, I found out that the agent restart was caused by the misconfiguration of the backup.def.

There is one field called nodefd, after I wrote the IP address of my PC to the "source.addr" field, then after restore, the agent wasn't restarted.

nodefd server1{

nodeAddrs = {

    {

      sourceType = domain

      source.addr = 172.21.1.153

      destination.addr =

    }

    {

      sourceType = domain

      source.addr = 172.21.1.153

      destination.addr =

    }

}

mirrorInfo.address =

mirrorInfo.partner.nodeName =

}

So I want to ask one question, is anyone know the what does this field relate with? Is it specify the NIC IP of my PC? How will this field affect the AutoStart behavior? Is there corresponding field in the console?

In Legato5.1 we didn't set the IP here, but the backup.def can be well restored without restart.

do you know the difference in Legato5.1 and AutoStart 5.3?
