Error message description There are different types of EMC NetWorker error messages. A copy of each message is stored in a special messages file. This section describes the error message categories and the format in which these messages are stored.

Message types There are five types of NetWorker error messages listed in this guide. The following table describes each of these types.

Table 3 Message types

Type Description

Informational Information that may be useful, but does not require any specific action.

Warning A temporary problem that NetWorker software may resolve or prompt you to resolve.

Notification An event has occurred that generated a message.

Error Errors that you are required to resolve.

Critical Errors that you are required to resolve, to ensure successful NetWorker operations.

Severe Errors that cause NetWorker services to become disabled or dysfunctional.

NetWorker messages file Error messages appear in the NetWorker Console or at the command line. NetWorker Console lists the messages generated during the past 24 hours. A copy of each message is stored in the NetWorker messages file.

The default locations for this file varies by platform as shown in the following table.

Table 4 Default location for the NetWorker messages log file

Platform Default location

UNIX and Linux /nsr/logs/messages

Windows %SystemDrive%\Program Files \Legato\nsr\logs\messages.log

The format for each error message entry appears as follows:

day hh:mm:ss: hostname: process: identifier: message

where:

l day is the date the message was generated.

l hh:mm:ss provides the hour, minutes, and seconds the message was generated.

Introduction

30 Dell EMC NetWorker Error Message Guide

l hostname is the network name for the computer that generated the message.

l process identifies the process that generated the message.

l identifier is a bracketed section containing the messages numeric identifier and priority. The numeric identifier is a numeric value generated from the hash signature of the message.

The priority is a period-separated pairing of the reporting processs system facility type and the severity level of the message.

l message is the actual message text. More than one entry in the messages file may be used to fully display the entire message for an error, as shown in the following example.

Sample portion of messages file:

Four entries in a messages file that show a single error-message event.

Argument list too long. (23861) Type

Notification

Source

nsrd

Description

The argument list associated with the command that you were trying to run was longer than the setting assigned to the systems environment variable (ARG_MAX). This problem might appear when:

l The setting for the environment variable (ARG_MAX) is too low.

l The savegrp command was called from a script instead of from the NetWorker program.

l The syntax used in the associated directive is incorrect.

l The indexes are larger than the index size limit.

l The indexes are corrupted.

Resolution

Complete one or more of these tasks to resolve this error:

l If the system configuration limit for the environment variable (ARG_MAX) is set too low, either reset the variable in the /usr/include/limits.h file or recompile the kernel.

l If the savegrp command was called from a script, run the backup again by using the NetWorker User program, or the save command.

l If this message was accompanied by the message "Ignored bad ASM argument," fix the syntax of the directive.

l Perform a consistency check on the media database or the client file index.

l If the consistency check indicates a problem, recover the media database or the file index.

Check an index on UNIX and Windows

6. Delete all client subdirectories associated with the clients removed in Step 2.

7. Examine all client subdirectories for files without an associated extension (except LEGATODB). If there are any files other than LEGATODB without an associated extension, the index is corrupted.

8. Copy or delete all files associated with the client subdirectory to another location, and delete the original files.

9. Copy the NetWorker resource file (NSR.RES) to another directory, and leave the original file intact. By default, the NetWorker resources are located in the SYS:\NSR\RES directory.

10. Start the NetWorker program from the server prompt (invoke NETWORKR.NCF) by entering this at the prompt:

Notification

Source

nsrexecd

Description

This is a Windows system message that indicates there is a new nsrexecd binary (7.3.2 or greater) and an older NW RPC client binary (7.3.1 or 7.3) on the same machine. The most common case where this occurs is if there is a 7.3.1/7.3 Console server (gstd) or Module installation on the same machine as a 7.3.2 (or later) installation of the NetWorker client package. This message is more critical in the case of the Console server, which requires high privileges on the NetWorker server (for example, it needs the "Change Security Settings" privilege).

The user who started the program will not appear to belong to any OS groups when communicating with NetWorker server processes. So, if you grant privileges using the OS group information, the program which is based off of 7.3.1 or 7.3 NetWorker will not receive the privileges that were assigned to that OS group, even if the user starting the program belonged to the group.

This message does not indicate an authentication failure; however, some of the user's information (for example, group information) will be missing from the credential. Therefore, the user may not receive all of the expected privileges.

Cancellation is in progress. Type

Informational

Source

nsrjb

Description

The nsrjb program detected a Ctrl+c entry and updated the appropriate NSR operation status resource to show cancellation of the operation.

This is an acknowledgement of the cancellation command, not a conformation that the operation has been fully cancelled. Because the jukebox operation is passed to nsrmmgd, and then on to nsrlcpd for actual implementation, it takes time for the cancellation to be forwarded to those processes.

These operations are made up of a series of tasks. The jukebox may not permit cancellation of these tasks. When that happens, nsrlcpd must permit the current task to complete. There may be a delay between the Cancellation is in progress message, and the nsrjb command completing.

If cancellation results are not needed, enter Ctrl+c a second time. The nsrjb program exits without waiting to monitor the operations progress.

Warning

Source

nsrmmgd, nsrjb, nsrd

Description

A RAP resource of type NSR Operation Status is created for tracking and managing each jukebox operation and certain device operations. As the operation progresses, the resource is updated to show progress or request a response. This message indicates that a NetWorker program tried to locate a specific resource, but could not find it.

Messages: C

Dell EMC NetWorker Error Message Guide 63

Resolution

There are several possible causes and solutions. These resources exist for a certain period after the operation is complete. They are deleted when the NetWorker program shuts down.

If the message appears after a response to a prompt, it is possible that the delay before entering information was too long and one of these occurred:

l The operation timed out. Check the daemon log to determine if this is the case. Resubmit the operation.

l The prompt was answered from another source, such as nsradmin or the GUI, enabling the operation to complete. No action is required.

l The operation was remotely cancelled while nsrjb was still showing a prompt. Resubmit the operation.

If the message appears for any other reason, transient resources should be configured to expire later. Balance the slight performance cost of keeping resources around for a longer period and the inconvenience of getting this error message from monitoring programs such as nsrjb.

If the polling period is too long or the retention policy for the operation status resources is too short, the resources may be deleted following the operation completion, without the nsrjb registering the completion status.

Adjust the nsrjb polling rate with the environment variable NSRJB_POLL_INTERVAL. The default is 10 seconds and can be adjusted between 5 and 30 seconds.

Adjust the resource retention period by adjusting the Operation Lifespan attribute of the applicable jukebox resource.

Description

The NSR Operation Status resources that track and control jukebox operations (and some device operations) are distinguished by an instance number attribute assigned during the creation of the resource. The instance number will eventually roll back to zero if it gets too large. This message indicates that NetWorker software is unable to find a unique instance number, indicating that all possible instance numbers are in use.

Resolution

If this error occurs, check the number of current and complete jukebox and device operations in the NetWorker RAP database.

If there are several complete operations, adjust the Operation Lifespan attribute of some or all jukeboxes to ensure that NSR Operation Status resources for completed operations are not retained for a lengthy period. This enables new operations to use the completed instance numbers.

If there are large numbers of operations still queued, allow them to complete before submitting new operations.

Type

Fatal Error

Source

Description

This message indicates one of the following:

l An internal bug.

l The journal code failed to protect the data integrity.

Whenever a volume record is read, the stored checksum (32-bit CRC) is compared against the calculated checksum. This message indicates that the record does not contain a checksum.

Media databases earlier than NetWorker software release 7.0 did not have checksums. However, these records are not checked because the release number is used to determine whether the record has a checksum. The conversion from an earlier release of NetWorker software to release 7.0 or later is done when the record is updated.

All records are automatically converted during compression performed every 23 days by the NetWorker Index Management program (nsrim) process or when an improper shutdown is detected.

Records without checksums from NetWorker software release 7.0 or later are considered suspect and are not returned to the requesting client application. It appears to the client application that the record does not exist. Each time the record matches a query and is read, the error message is logged again.

Resolution

To resolve this error complete one of these actions:

l If there is sufficient information in the error message, delete the volume using NetWorker Console or the NetWorker Media Management command (nsrmm).

Dell EMC NetWorker Error Message Guide 91

Description

During a scanning operation, the scanner program found duplicate data on two separate volumes. The scanner program is updating the media database with information from the most recent copy of the data. This duplicated data is most likely a fragment of a save set that spans multiple volumes.

When a save set backup continues onto a second volume, the last piece of data written on the first volume is rewritten to the beginning of the second volume to ensure the data can be recovered. When scanner processes the first volume before the second volume, it detects this duplicate data and updates the media database with the most recent version of the data.

If the second volume is scanned before the first volume, the message is "skipping overlapping fragment." This indicates both of the following:

l The scanned data is retained.

Description

NetWorker software was unable to complete a "restore if can replace" recovery of the file identified by ' ', because of insufficient access or permissions. A "restore if can replace" recovery will only proceed if all existing files can be replaced. This type of recovery requires the ability to resolve all conflicts by replacing each existing file with a recovered file.

Resolution

To correct the cause of this recovery failure, make these changes:

l Provide NetWorker software with sufficient user permissions to write into the file system.

l Remove read-only protection from all files that will be replaced by the recovery.

If one file is the cause of the failure, remove the file to permit a successful recovery operation.

Retry the recovery. If the problem persists, go to https://support.emc.com/ for technical assistance.

Fatal Error

Source

nsrmmdbd

Description

Fatal error messages are not expected to occur with the new media database journaling. There is a potential, through user error, for coding errors and unhandled error conditions to cause data corruption.

Messages: F

Dell EMC NetWorker Error Message Guide 167

The current implementation of NetWorker software attempts to recover from these coding and unhandled error conditions. Generally, the software detects the errors as soon as possible and removes the invalid database entries.

This puts the media database back into a consistent state, although there may be some data loss.

Whenever possible, the corrupted records will be identified so the administrator can determine the extent of the data loss. With this information, the administrator can determine if additional recovery mechanisms, such as restoring a media database from the bootstrap, are necessary.

Resolution

The general approach to resolving any fatal media database problem is to go to https:// support.EMC.com/ for technical assistance in assessing and recovering from the errors.

Go to https://support.EMC.com/ for technical assistance after completing the following steps:

1. Shut down the media database if it has not done so automatically.

2. Save a copy of the media database directories by using standard tools, such as tar or zip.

Note: Make a copy of the database before restarting it. Restarting the database may cause the scavenge process to start restoring the media database by rebuilding the database from the data records and rebuilding the internal indexes.

Restart the process to start additional database consistency checks. Consistency is restored by the removal of records that cross-reference nonexistent records.

This process creates a restored, consistent media database. However, it may also remove hundreds or thousands of records, depending on the level of corruption.

Making a copy of the database before the media database is restored enables Technical Support to conduct a post-analysis of the database and determine how to restore additional database records.

In a situation where the corruption was severe, the media database can be recovered from the bootstrap by using the mmrecov command. NetWorker software attempts to generate a bootstrap every day, so no more than one days worth of data should be lost.

nsrd

Description

This error occurs for nsrauth and oldauth, and usually indicates one of the following:

l A Console server is running on the host and you did not add root (or SYSTEM, if using a Windows system) at to the "administrator" list in the NSR resource. (The "isroot" keyword will match both SYSTEM and root.)

l If the user starts a Console server (gstd) and selects "User authentication for NetWorker" but does not have enough privileges for impersonation.

Note: NetWorker daemons requesting the right to impersonate another user need the "Change Security Settings" privilege.

l The NetWorker client application (a module client or a snapshot client) is not functioning normally and is asking for impersonation when it is not required.

An example of when impersonation may be required is in cases where requests are sent to one daemon and then forwarded to another. The Console server often receives messages from the NetWorker Management Console java front end and passes them to nsrexecd, nsrd, and other daemons. If the option "User authentication for NetWorker" is selected, then the Console server will try to "impersonate" the logged in user, allowing the user to configure resources other than the ones selected through the Local Hosts tree entries.

For resources selected through the Local Hosts tree entries, the user who started the Console server needs to be in the "administrator" list for the selected resource to perform impersonation.

Note: The NetWorker Management Console user may still not be able to configure the selected resource because this user also needs to be added to the administrator list of the resource.

nsrmon was terminated by a signal . (14154) Type

Notification

Source

nsrd

Description

Multiple nsrmon sessions were running at the same time and the sessions did not properly synchronize their updates to the nsrd process.

When you issue a command to an autochanger attached to a storage node, the requested processes fail if multiple nsrmon requests are pending for a single instance of the nsrmmd process. The first instance of nsrmon does not terminate properly because of a timeout. Subsequent requests made to nsrmmd fail.

The nsrmon service monitors nsrmmd processes running remotely. You can configure the following parameters within the Server Setup to control the behavior of nsrmon:

l nsrmmd polling interval (1-60 minutes) Specifies the number of minutes between storage node polls.

l nsrmmd restart interval (0-60 minutes) Specifies the number of minutes between nsrmmd restarts. A value of 0 indicates that nsrmmd restarts immediately.

l nsrmmd control timeout (2-30 minutes) Specifies the number of minutes for nsrmmd to wait between storage node requests.

l NSR_MMDCONTROL (default is 2 minutes) Specifies the number of minutes that nsrd waits until timing out a remote daemon request. Set as an environmental variable.

This message might indicate that a large number of storage nodes are causing nsrmmd to poll frequently. During heavy backup periods, the combination of frequent polling intervals and a short nsrmmd control timeout interval might unnecessarily restart nsrmmd processes.

l Restart the nsrmon and nsrd services.

l Increase the nsrmmd polling interval from 10 to 15 minutes. For example, assume this is the configuration: nsrmmd polling interval = 2 minutes

In this instance, nsrmon polls the nsrmmd processes every two minutes to verify that the processes are active.

l Increase the nsrmmd restart variable from 10 to 15 minutes. For example, assume this is the configuration: nsrmmd restart interval = 2 minutes

In this instance, if nsrmon does not receive a return message from nsrmmd, it waits two minutes before restarting the nsrmmd process.

l Increase the nsrmmd control timeout interval from 10 to 15 minutes. For example, assume this is the configuration: nsrmmd control timeout = 2

In this instance, nsrmon waits for two minutes to receive a message from nsrmmd. After two minutes, nsrmon assumes that nsrmmd is inactive and restarts nsrmmd based on the setting of the restart interval.

nsrndmp_save: data connect: failed to establish connection Type

l Network connectivity or name resolution issues exist between the NetWorker server and the NDMP client.

l You specified an incorrect NDMP username or password specified for the NDMP client.

l The NDMP service is not started on the NAS filer.

l The NetWorker server cannot communicate with the NAS filer over port 10000.

l A free port in the NetWorker servers default port range (7937-9936) is not available during an NDMP-DSA backup.

l A misconfigured loop router. For an EMC Celerra filer, the server route command utility configures the loop router. For NetApp, the route utility configures loop back router. The value of this setup is network-specific and depends on the number of switches and hubs between the NAS filer, NetWorker server, and NetWorker storage node.

l On the host where DSA is running, if the hostname is present in the hosts file, the nsrdsa_save process uses this name during backup. The DSA host passes the loopback entry to the NDMP data server and the connection fails. To resolve this issue, remove the hostname from the localhost list.

The error is fatal in regards to jukebox management. Other nonjukebox-related NetWorker tasks continue unimpeded.

Resolution

Do not shut down nsrmmgd manually. The daemon should only be shut down by nsrd as part of the NetWorker software shutdown mechanism.

If nsrmmgd exited due to an error, check the daemon log file and the nsr/cores directory to determine the reason and resolve the problem. For example, if nsrmmgd tried to start up but failed because of a missing operating system library, ensure that the appropriate library is installed in the correct location.

nsrd

Description

Jukebox operations did not complete when the NetWorker program shut down. The jukebox operation to which this error applies precedes the error in the daemon log file.

Resolution

Do not shut down the NetWorker program until all jukebox operations complete.

Use the service mode value of the jukebox resource to allow currently queued operations to complete before a shutdown. No new operations are accepted for that jukebox. After nsrmmgd marks the jukebox as disabled, shut down the NetWorker program. Reset the jukebox status to enabled when restarting the NetWorker program.

Fatal Error

Source

nsrd

Description

The nsrd program is notified by the operating system, that nsrmmgd has repeatedly exited unexpectedly. Although nsrd attempts to restart nsrmmgd, it is limited in retry attempts. NetWorker software tracks the number of times it has restarted nsrmmgd. If the rate of restarting nsrmmgd is high, nsrd stops trying and continues working without jukebox access.

The fatal error status means that jukeboxes cannot be managed. Other nonjukebox-related NetWorker software tasks continue unimpeded.

Resolution

Do not terminate nsrmmgd manually. The daemon should only be shut down by nsrd as part of the NetWorker shutdown mechanism.

If nsrmmgd exited due to an error, check the daemon log file, and the nsr/cores directory to determine the reason and resolve the problem. For example, if nsrmmgd exited because it was out of memory, allocate more system resources and/or reduce the number of processes competing for those resources.

Messages: U

346 Dell EMC NetWorker Error Message Guide

Resolution

Check for one of the following when you receive this error:

1. Verify that the SSL key matches between the NMC Server and the NetWorker client host. The SSL key is in the NSR Peer Information attribute, which is located in each hosts nsrladb database. A mismatch can occur when the nsrladb on one host is corrupted. To resolve this issue, delete the Console Servers NSR Peer Information from the NetWorker Clients nsrladb, and delete the NetWorker Clients NSR Peer Information from the Console Servers nsrladb as following:

l To delete the Console Servers NSR Peer Information from the NetWorker Clients nsrladb, on the client host, type:

nsradmin p nsrexec nsradmin> print type:NSR peer information

Note: Identify the Console Servers NSR Peer Information, and delete it.

nsradmin> delete type: NSR peer information;name: Delete? Yes

l To delete the NetWorker Clients NSR Peer Information from the Console Servers nsrladb, on the Console Server host, type:

nsradmin p nsrexec nsradmin> print type:NSR peer information

Note: Identify the NetWorker Clients NSR Peer Information, and delete it.

nsradmin> delete type: NSR peer information;name: Delete? Yes

Once the deletion is complete, it is not mandatory to restart the NetWorker or Console services.

2. The Client cannot resolve hostname of NMC Server or NW Server. Sometimes, NMC can resolve the client hostname, but , client cannot resolve NMC or NetWorker Server hostname. To resolve this issue, ping the NetWorker Server and NMC server from the Client. If the ping fails, DNS is not resolving the hostname issue and add the hostname to the client hosts file.

3. Ensure NetWorker users have at least the "Operate NetWorker" privilege to launch the Client Wizard. To resolve this issue, add the user to the appropriate user_group in the NetWorker Server.

4. The NetWorker Server may not be present in the client's servers file. To resolve this issue, add the NetWorker Server to the client's servers file.

5. The NMC Server, NetWorker Server and NetWorker client hosts must only use nsrauth authentication.

The most common scenarios in which server authentication fails are:

l Scenario 1: Two NetWorker hosts are not using compatible authentication methods.

l Scenario 2: A NSR peer information resource already exists for a NetWorker host but through some unexpected event such as corruption, the NSR peer information resource is not recognized.

Resolution

l Scenario 1 If a legacy NetWorker client can only use oldauth authentication, allow other NetWorker hosts, that connect to the client, to fallback to oldauth authentication. The most likely NetWorker host that will need to connect to this client is the NetWorker server. You can allow the NetWorker server to fallback to oldauth for just one, or a small number, of NetWorker clients, while disallowing fallback for all other NetWorker clients. Alternatively, you can allow the NetWorker server to fallback to oldauth for all NetWorker clients. The NetWorker Client Management chapter in the EMC NetWorker Administration Guide provides details.

l Scenario 2 Delete the client's NSR peer information resource from the NetWorker server's NSRLA database. The NetWorker Client Management chapter in the EMC NetWorker Administration Guide provides details.

Description

This error message can occur for nsrauth and oldauth (it is fatal for nsrauth and non-fatal for oldauth).

There are two reasons this error message appears:

l If nsrauth was disabled for all hosts that communicate with the NetWorker server, then this error message is caused by a bug. If this is the case, you will also see the following message: Warning: Could not register a daemon key with the authentication daemon.

If you see this warning, then the following error message is not a problem:

user does not have the privileges

These messages usually appear when the NetWorker server daemons (for example, nsrd) are started.

l If nsrauth was allowed for at least one other host (for example, if you do not see the above mentioned error message), then some daemons will not work correctly when using authentication. As a result, users connecting to NetWorker daemons will often not have the correct privileges; they will have the correct privileges when communicating with nsrd or nsrexecd, but for any of the other daemons, no privileges will be available.

savegrp

Description

This message might appear because of one of these reasons:

l The backup of the specified clients file failed.

l The savegrp program was unable to perform a query on the specified client to determine which files changed since the previous backup.

If the backup of the specified file failed, savegrp attempts to back up the file more times.

If savegrp was unable to perform a query on the specified client, savegrp attempts to query the file on the specified client more times.

The initial value of is the value specified for the Client Retries attribute in the associated clients Group resource. The value of decreases by one each time the backup operation is attempted during this session.

The client retry mechanism manages situations when client operations might fail. These situations might occur when the rate of transmission is either low or nonexistent. With a retry mechanism, a previously failed operation might be more successful. For example, a retry mechanism might succeed when the client is in a reboot cycle.

Resolution

Complete one or both of these tasks to resolve this error:

l Verify network connectivity.

l Ensure that the client is up and running.

Description

The data to be backed up was deposited into a buffer until the appropriate time for it to be written to a volume.

During any backup, archive, or clone session, the server monitors the status of each session asynchronously. When the backup, archive, or clone session has completed but the data still needs to be written to a volume, the server displays this status message.

savegrp

Description

The savegrp program is performing a full backup of the specified save sets instead of the backup level specified in the associated clients schedule.

This message indicates that the specified save sets have not been previously backed up. If the save set was backed up, it would have appeared in the NetWorker media database. Before an incremental or level backup can be performed on a save set, it must first be backed up in its entirety.

If the save set was previously backed up, this message might appear because:

l The clocks on the client and server are not synchronized.

l The savegrp session begins before midnight and ends after midnight.

l The NetWorker client software is backing up a NetWare BINDERY. In this case, the specified client schedule is ignored and a full backup of the specified save sets is performed.

Warning or Fatal Error

Source

nsrmmdbd

Description

If the media database was shut down improperly, this message may appear at startup when maintenance is performed on the media database. The first occurrence of the message is a warning.

When NetWorker software scavenges the media database and cleans up the files in the directory, it then rebuilds the media database from the segment files and generates the internal indexing files.

This error message should not appear after the media database is scavenged and a new attempt is made to remount the newly generated media database.

Because the scavenge process generates a consistent map of the media database, it is highly unlikely the error message will be repeated. It also is unlikely that this message will occur after a maintenance command is run on the media database, because the maintenance commands rebuild the mapping as well.

A fatal error occurs if any of these files appear in the error message:

l clients.*

l saveset.*

l vol.*
