You are correct in that you do not want to mix ontape and onbar.

You can edit the log_full.sh and comment out the onbar line or have it kick off an ontape -a or point to no_log.sh. However we use log_full at our site to trap and check for other event alarms so you want to carry over any logic you have there.

As to your Legato issue the secondary machine must match the configuration of the first machine and you need to tell Legato that you want to restore the backup taken from the primary machine. I think the correct env variable to user there is NSR_CLIENT. The client name is connected to the backup restore request.

Hope this helps

Debbie

Hi Guys,

I've been working with this problem since 1 week ago, we have a Storage
Manager
that was Set up last month, before this we used ontape to make full backups
and for logical logs, the software(Legato) was configured on the server and
then
we migrate from ontape to Onbar .. everything worked fine until we need to
restore a onbar a full backup on another server, the onbar utility could not
read
the tape and then we switch to ontape again to restore on that server, the
software
vendor is working on finding what went wrong with onbar ..


but that's not the problem
that i'm having, when we configure again ontape on the server, we made a
rollback of
every change... BUT the onbar utility still working on the machine trying to
make backups
of the logical logs, we need to kill the onbar_d process and then launch a
ontape -c for
continous backups, i find out that the ALARMPROGRAM variable is the one that
detects
a log full and then starts the onbar -d -l to backup the logical log, do I
need to
the change that variable to no_log.sh ??????

Before we migrate from ontape to onbar the ALARMPROGRAM was set with
log_full.sh, so
we didn't make any change on that ...
