on-Bar & ISM

I have successfully set up On-Bar & ISM on my brand new test server. I am now experiencing problems migrating my development server from On-Archive to On-Bar; As far as I can see both machines are configured the same. I was previously getting the following error in the bar_act.log XBSA Error: (BSACreateObject): A system error occured. Aborting XBSA session and in xbsa.messages _nwbsa_is_retryable_error: received a network error (Severity 5 Number 13): `hps03.hmgcc' is not a registered client. This was resolved by my Unix Administrastor defining hps03.hmgcc as an alias in Legato running on another server. Now When I run onbar -b I get NetWorker: RPC error, Unable to send NetWorker: Send Chunk to MMD failed, Broken pipe online.log shows that the archive has aborted on some dbspaces Level 0 Archive started on projectdbs Archive on projectdbs ABORTED bar_act.log shows Process 27396 received signal 13. Process will exit after cleanup. The On-Bar process 27396 exited with a problem (exit code 141(0x8d), signal 0). xbsa.messages shows _nwbsa_close_create_object_session: BSA_RC_ABORT_SYSTEM_ERROR System detected error due to savefile_fini() failure. Operation aborted. Some dbspaces and blobspaces are backed up and some are not. Can anyone help me ?

Hi, hmm. I'm not sure what's happening on your machine. ISM is only good for local operation. You cannot use it to put the backup data on a remote machine. The ISM must be running locally on the same machine as the IDS server. Have you checked that you are using the proper XBSA library ? Check BAR_BSALIB_PATH parameter setting in your $ONCONFIG file. It should be something like $INFORMIXDIR/lib/libbase.so where you have to replace $INFORMIXDIR with whatever its setting is on your system. This is what I can currently think of.

I have our system working on Solaris 8 Here are my parameter settings BAR_ACT_LOG /export/home/informix/bar_act.log BAR_DEBUG_LOG /export/home/informix/bar_dbug.log BAR_MAX_BACKUP 1 BAR_RETRY 1 BAR_NB_XPORT_COUNT 10 BAR_XFER_BUF_SIZE 31 RESTARTABLE_RESTORE offLOG_BACKUP_MODE MANUAL # MANUAL - user must perform log backups # NONE - don't backup logs and re-use them # as soon as they fill. ##BAR_DEBUG 9 # Only for ONBAR debugging purposes BAR_BSALIB_PATH /usr/lib/ibsad001.so # Full path name of storage manager ISM_DATA_POOL ISMDiskData # ISM_DATA_POOL value ISM_LOG_POOL ISMDiskLogs # ISM_LOG_POOL value ALARMPROGRAM /export/home/informix/etc/log_full.sh # Alarm program path I recommend using ISA 1.50 the latest version Web base tool that is free with IDS. The GUI has a section on ISM to ease administration. Make sure the ism daemon has started - ism_startup -init must be started under root id.
