VADP hotadd problems

Hello all,

I'm having some dificulties trying to implement VADP Backups using hotadd as Transport Mode.

The VADP Proxy is a Virtual Machine, running Windows 2008 R2. The ESX server where it resides on has access to all Datastores/LUNs in the cluster.

With NDB everything works fine, but when I try to use hotadd I have the following error:

savegrp: suppressed 60 lines of output.

83510:nsrvadp_save: Requested transport modes "hotadd" unavailable, only "nbd" available. Please change transport mode to "nbd" and retry backup.

83511:nsrvadp_save: Requested Transport modes "hotadd" unavailable. Exiting.

Cleaningup VADP mount operation.

83684:nsrvadp_save: Failed to reauthenticate with VIM server, details with error: The following internal error occurred: Unable to log into VIM Server: 'https://192.168.22.4:443/sdk' as user: 'backupservice'.  Details: 'SOAP FAULT (v1.1) Cannot complete login due to an incorrect user name or password.'..

Deletion of snapshot failed with error: The following internal error occurred: Unable to log into VIM Server: 'https://192.168.22.4:443/sdk' as user: 'backupservice'.  Details: 'SOAP FAULT (v1.1) Cannot complete login due to an incorrect user name or password.'.. Please delete it manually.

Temporary directory 'c:\mnt\VADPTEST' for VADP deleted.

Maybe I'm missing something, and any help will be appreciated.

Thank you.

    Well, it is looks as one of two possible things based on error:

    a) credentials supplied are not correct

    b) your ESX version is not licensed for hotadd transport mode (here is link for vSphere 5 for example)

    As this is answered , but out of curiousity can you confirm what event was seen in the temporary savegroup files (.sso) for the problematic backup 

    normally:

    "program files\legato\nsr\tmp\sg\Group_NAME"

    Thank you,

    Regards,

    Conor.

    Hello Conor,

    The error that I pasted earlier in this discussion is from the temporary savegroup files.

    Dani,

    I don't know, perhaps somebody else can help you.

    I do know that for SAN the VADP Proxy must be a physical machine, instead of a VM, because it must have access to all LUNs.

    Regards,

    Hi Dani,

    Different problems should be handled under different threads.  With SAN mode, make sure you use physical proxy and that zoning is right .  For anything else or additional please open separate thread.
