Description

Veritas Bug ID: ET 3935219

 

Version:  NetBackup_8.1

 

Problem Description:
A HotFix is available for NetBackup 8.1 which resolves multiple issues with NetBackup 8.1 MSDP storage servers.

 

Installation Location:  Server (MSDP servers)

 

Fixes Included:
 
ET 3930915: EEB 3920243 created for Disk Pool down
ET 3931172: Spoold process is crashing after NetBackup upgrade from 7.7.3 to 8.1.
ET 3934118: Source 773 / Target 8.1 - MOST replications are failing
ET 3935874: Storage discrepancy between 2 sites
ET 3941455: Appliance 8.1 upgrade caused the MSDP storage to reach upper limit on AIR configured Target machines.
ET 3943310: Repeated corruption found on multiple 3.1 MSDP pools
ET 3946036: Corrupt images have missing DOs
ET 3951309: AIR import fails at target nbu domain
ET 3952351: Further corruption on an appliance with 3935219_V13 installed
ET 3953432: SPAD is crashing after upgrade to 8.1.1 and completion of fingerprint conversion
ET 3956762: Data conversion is stalled at 75%, unable to read containers after an Appliance RAID controller failure
ET 3957638: If EEB v16-v17 of ET3935219 or v14-v16 of ET3942191 is applied, rolling conversion of BlowFish encrypted data may have data corruption
ET 3959119: Performance issue with optimized duplication between two 5340 appliances
ET 3959807: Some vmware backup policies are failing with status 87 due to missing containers
ET 3968239: Windows MSDP server consuming a lot more memory after upgrade from 7.7.3
ET 3969052: During Appliance HA cluster media server fail over the plug registration configuration file is deleted
ET 3931172: Spoold process is crashing after NetBackup upgrade from 7.7.3 to 8.1.
ET 3934118: Source 773 / Target 8.1 - MOST replications are failing
ET 3937666: Performance Issues post 8.1 (3.1) upgrade
ET 3935219: Performance Issues post 8.1 (3.1) upgrade
ET 3938151: Rebasing old MD5 segments can potentially cause data loss in case the fingerprint map is not flushed to disk
ET 3941455: Appliance 8.1 upgrade caused the MSDP storage to reach upper limit on AIR configured Target machines.
ET 3935219: The first ACCL backup is very slow after upgrade from MD5 to SHA-2
A new conversion option is added. The user can use a script to find out the data containers used by the last full backups and convert them offline.
ET 3943310: Repeated corruption found on multiple 3.1 MSDP pools
ET 3953432: SPAD is crashing after upgrade to 8.1.1 and completion of fingerprint conversion
ET 3951309: AIR import fails at target nbu domain
ET 3952351: Further corruption on an appliance with 3935219_V13 installed
ET 3935874: Storage discrepancy between 2 sites Conversion performance optimization to skip some unnecessary container BIN file update
ET 3956762: Data conversion is stalled at 75%, unable to read containers after an 
Appliance RAID controller failure
Fixed potential container corruption issue (ET 3957638), which is caused by incorrect memory alignment.
The issue affects those encrypted segments, and was observed on HPUX, AIX and Solaris.
ET 3957638: If EEB v16-v17 of ET3935219 or v13-v16 of ET3942191 is applied rolling conversion of encrypted data may have data corruption
Pre-conversion changes for 8.1+.
1. Using FP mapping file during cache loading
2. Raise conversion priority higher than CRC checking
Pre-conversion changes for 8.1+.
1. Decryption performance optimization.
2. FP Mapping file optimization.
ET 3959119: Performance issue with optimized duplication between two 5340 appliances
Optimization of cache loading
Implemented the fpmaponly DO conversion to reduce unnecessary computing
Enhance the fpmap cache management mechanism to support dynamic grow and shrink
ET 3959807: Some vmware backup policies are failing with status 87 due to missing containers
ET 3968239: Windows MSDP server consuming a lot more memory after upgrade from 7.7.3 to 8.1.2
ET 3969052: During Appliance HA cluster media server fail over the plug registration configuration file is deleted
 

Version 26 added a fix which involves clearing a flag defect in rollback

Read me

Note: The formal resolution for this issue (Etrack 3935219) is included in the following release: NetBackup 8.3

 

All of the following conditions must exist for the issue to occur:

  1. A NetBackup Media Server Deduplication (MSDP) storage server has been upgraded to version 8.1 for non-Appliances or 3.1 for Appliances.
  2. Segments have been stored with the ENCRYPTION parameter enabled prior to upgrade and have not yet been converted to AES-256.

 

This EEB should be installed on:

  • MSDP storage servers
  • Load balance media servers
  • NetBackup clients that are configured for client side deduplication

 

This EEB should be installed on the above systems regardless of they were upgraded, experienced a re-image or were shipped / installed with the 8.1 version.

Note:  If a previous version of the EEB is installed on a system, remove it before applying the newer version.

This NetBackup 8.1 etrack has EEB bundles for Appliance, Windows, SLES and RHEL MSDP servers and clients. EEB version 26.
