Avamar: Sikkerhetskopiering mislykkes på grunn av at DNS-spørring tar for lang tid - avtar FATAL <8941>: Alvorlig servertilkoblingsproblem, avbryter initialisering. Bekreft riktig serveradresse og påloggingsinformasjon.

Summary: Hensikten med denne KB-artikkelen er å forklare det spesielle scenariet der avtar-håndtrykket mislykkes, men ping-verkene og de nødvendige TCP-portnumrene er, er også åpne.

Symptoms



I dette scenariet fant vi ut at noen klienter ble berørt, mens andre ikke ble berørt.
For den berørte klienten oppstår problemet med både Win FS-sikkerhetskopier og VSS-sikkerhetskopier.

Fra avtar-loggene kan vi se følgende feilmelding: 
avtar FATAL <8941>: Fatal server connection problem, aborting initialization. Verify correct server address and login credentials.
avtar Info <5694>: - Failed initial handshake, trying again
avtar Info <5562>: - - Connect: Trying 10.xx.xx.xx:29000
Adding log debugging we can see the extra bit of information in the log:

    [avtar]  sslcertificate::verify_cnname Performing CN Name validation for Avamar Server RSA TLS
    [avtar]  uwrapper::gethostbyaddr DnsQuery(dns)  returned (9002) for 10.xx.xx.xx

For the troubleshooting purpose we checked and confirmed that the TCP ports 28001, 28002, 27000 and 29000 were all open and within the correct TCP directions as per Avamar security guide, ping and DNS resolution were also working fine.



 

Cause

Dette problemet skyldes den lange responstiden i DNS-spørsmålene, faktisk kan vi se at "DnsQuery (dns) returnert " tok mer enn 10 sekunder hver gang, merk at håndtrykksprosessen kjørte en rekke spørringsforsøk før den mislykkes helt.

Som per eksempel: 
2019/03/05-10:22:41.39299 [avtar]  sslcertificate::verify_cnname Performing CN Name validation for Avamar Server RSA TLS
2019/03/05-10:22:53.30100 [avtar]  uwrapper::gethostbyaddr DnsQuery(dns)  returned (9002) for 10.xx.xx.xx
And the entire handshake process would require about 50 seconds to complete and fail:


2019/03/05-10:22:14.89800 [avtar]  sslsockimpl::open  initclient success
....
2019/03/05-10:23:05.41599 [avtar]  sslsockimpl::open  failure

For comparison here is an example from a working client where we see that the the "DnsQuery" is returned in less than 1 second:

2019/03/05-11:56:06.97600 [avtar]  sslcertificate::verify_cnname Performing CN Name validation for <avamar-server-fqdn>
2019/03/05-11:56:07.79600 [avtar]  uwrapper::gethostbyaddr DnsQuery(dns)  returned (9002) for 10.xx.xx.xx
And the entire handshake process would complete in about 13 seconds:


2019/03/05-11:55:54.12400 [avtar]  sslsockimpl::open  initclient success
...
2019/03/05-11:56:07.82899 [avtar]  sslsockimpl::open  initclient success, cipher: AES256-SHA
In a summary, the root cause is identified as DnsQuery spent too much time on the affected client machines.

Resolution

For å løse denne typen problemer må systemadministratoren utføre handlinger på DNS-serveren for å løse denne forsinkelsen.

Siden problemet er utenfor omfanget av Avamar-sikkerhetskopiproduktet, må systemadministratoren være koblet inn.

Additional Information

Hvis du opplever de samme feilene, men i ditt tilfelle DNS hviler på mindre enn et sekund, kan det hende du opplever en annen type problem.
Sjekk først i Dell EMCs kunnskapsbase for å se om noen annen KB-artikkel kan hjelpe deg med å løse dette problemet, ellers kan du kontakte Avamar-støtteteamet.
