Symptoms

In questo articolo viene utilizzato lo script goav. Utilizzare questo articolo Avamar: GoAV Tool per maggiori informazioni

In questo scenario, Avamar Server (av-server) dispone di due vCenter:

  • vcenter01.lab.com
  • vcenter02.lab.com

Ogni vCenter contiene alcuni proxy. In questo articolo viene utilizzata la av-proxy-08.lab.com proxy.

1 - Connettersi ad Avamar Server come amministratore ed elencare i proxy:

./goav proxy show

2 - Controllare l'ID client (cid) per i due vCenter:

psql -p 5555 mcdb -c 'select mgmt_client.cid, clients.descr, mgmt_client.uuid from mgmt_client, clients where mgmt_client.cid=clients.cid;'
admin@av-server:~/>: psql -p 5555 mcdb -c 'select mgmt_client.cid, clients.descr, mgmt_client.uuid from mgmt_client, clients where mgmt_client.cid=clients.cid;'

Nota: Questo comportamento non può essere riproducibile utilizzando l'interfaccia utente di Avamar (AUI) poiché non consente la disattivazione del proxy.

 

5 - Passare alla scheda >Policy > Clients: modificare il proxy av-proxy-08.

  • Clear: Activated, Allow client initiated backups, Allow file selection on client initiated backups
  • Assegno: Disabilitazione di tutti i backup

Cause

Nonostante ciò sia insolito, Engineering non corregge o aggiorna più la console di Avamar Administrator (GUI Java).

Resolution

Non disattivare in nessun caso il proxy dalla console di Avamar Administrator. Si consiglia di utilizzare AUI il più possibile.
