Things to consider when Troubleshooting NetBackup
Hi All, Updated to add that this document has now been released as a Technote. A couple of alterations have also been made. http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH209090 I hope the attached document may be of interest. It is an attempt to highlight the differnt areas that may be considerend when investigatting an issue. There is not really any right/ wrong answers, so I'm not currently looking at making any major changes. The idea is more of a demonstration of how you 'might' tackle an issue, it is up to the individual to 'fine-tune' the exact methods they use. Many thanks, Martin
Zapping a mailbox returns error [0x8004011D]
Hi All, Just thought I'd share this information as it drove me crazy for days. We had about 20 or sousers who could archive but restores would fail or hang, but after further investigation other symptons may vary. Basically when they tried to restore an email from the vault it would hang in the R1 queue and cause backlogs that simply wouldn't clear. I'm suspecting this could also affect the 'A' queues as well. When we tried to ZAP the mailbox it would fail with the below error, and I couldn't work out why! Error - Whilst processing mailbox with dn: (LegecyExchangeDN of user) [0x8004011D] I dtraced the EVPM with no success, or no valid errors that explained why (not sure if that was the right one to trace). In the end I remembered a similar issue with our BlackBerry's and checked the users LegecyExchangeDN in ADSIEDIT. Surprise! There was a space at the end of it! This is not something you can see in PowerShell... After removing the space from the end and trying again... SUCCESS! Not only did zapping now work but recalls worked as well. Be warned though, you cannot simply remove the space from the LegecyExchangeDN as you will break email for replies and cached entries in Outlook. You'll have to add the damaged LegecyExchangeDN as an X500 address to the users mailbox and then remove the space from the account either through PowerShell or ADSIEDIT (adsiedit is probably eaiser as you see what you are doing) Hopefully this will be helpful to someone...NetBackup Technical Information Updates: Deduplication FAQs

I started seeing LiveUpdate Information About the agent for windows on at least one server does not have the most recent updates? To Install the most recent updates, on the Backup and restore tab, right click the remote computer that is out of date, and then select Update. 1.There is no indication on what server agent is out of date 2.After right clicking on each server on some I can see Update is grayed out and on some its clickable 3.Does this mean they are out of date and need to be updated? 4.What happen if I update the server will I have to reboot? 5.The server is Windows 2003 with exchange 2003 running on a cluster serves with 2 nodes 6.It seem each node might need the upgrade and the cluster seems to need 7.I am assuming after I update the active node the cluster will be up-to-date 8.Should I manually run LiveUpdate on the backup Exec server monthly and after an update I should update the clients?
