NetVault Plug-in for SnapMirror to Tape 10.0.5 - User Guide

Mirroring process

Using the NetApp SnapMirror utility and Plug‑in for SnapMirror to Tape, you can take a snapshot from a NetApp filer and transfer it to a piece of media, and then mirror this data to a second filer. However, the plug-in does not control this aspect of the operation. It is solely handled by the NetApp utilities. For more information about this process, see the relevant NetApp documentation.

The NetVault Backup Service fails to start on a Windows-based NetVault Backup Server.
Check the Windows Event Viewer to see if it displays the following message:
PDT FATAL: lock file "postmaster.pid" already exists
NetVault Backup cannot start if the PostgreSQL database that is used to store the system data does not start.
To correct this issue, delete the “postmaster.pid” file from the location referenced in the log and restart the NetVault Backup Server.
After restarting the machine, the NetVault Backup Service sometimes fails to start on a Windows-based NetVault Backup Server.
Check the Windows Event Viewer to see if it displays the following message:

NetVault Backup cannot start if the PostgreSQL database that is used to store the system data does not start.
To correct this issue, start the Task Manager, and click Show processes from all users. You can see multiple instances of postgres32.exe running on the system. Select any one instance of this process, and click End Process to remove all instances of postgres32.exe. Then, start the NetVault Backup Service from the Configurator.

This issue can occur if the Postgres service cannot resolve the host name localhost, and fails to start.
Check the /etc/hosts file, and if the file does not contain an entry for localhost, add the entry.
Restore fails with the message “Aborting: Destination volume, XXX, is too small.”
Restore fails immediately after media is assigned and the restore operation is started on the filer.
Add more disk space to the destination volume or choose another destination volume of sufficient capacity.
