When NVBU language is changed to German, everytime an NDMP backup runs, the following message appears in the NetVault logs:
"BAD LOG FORMAT LOCALISATION, ID 102400105."
When switching back to the English language, the same exact log message becomes:
"Connected to NDMP Server, Vendor 'Network Appliance', Product 'Network Appliance NDMP server FAS2040', Revision '4.0'"
When NVBU uses one of the supported languages, it uses a series of control files to translate the original English log messages to the relevant language.
These .ctl files are located by default under
...\NetVault Backup\locale\German\logs\
Searching for message 102400105 we can see that it is translated to:
"Verbindung zum NDMP-Server '%s' nicht möglich, Hersteller '%s', Produkt '%s', Version '%s'"
However, this is incorrect and does not reflect the English message: "Connection to the NDMP Server '% s' is not possible, manufacturers '% s' product '% s' version '% s'"
This is a minor defect with no impact at all on the functionning of the NVBU server.
Bug 13049 will be addressed in a furture version following NVBU 9.0.1.
In the meantime there is an easy workaround which is to correct the file manually.
To correct the German log Control file:
1- Please go to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Quest Software\NetVault Backup\locale\German
2- Open the ''logs1024.ctl'file with a text editor
3- Change the following line:
102400105 "Verbindung zum NDMP-Server nicht möglich, Hersteller '%s', Produkt '%s', Version '%s'
to
102400105 "Verbunden mit NDMP Server, Hersteller '% s', Produkt '% s', Version '% s'"
4- Save the file to apply the change
5- Next time the English message: "Connected to NDMP Server, Vendor '%s', Product '%s', Revision '%s'" needs to be displayed in German, the correct string will be referrenced.
