Hi all!
Some days ago, i have a problem with Solstice Backup 4.2.2 SingleServer
on a Solaris 2.5.1 server.
I got a bootstrap message like this:
* obelix:/ save: File index error, client file index is too large
* obelix:/ save: Cannot open save session with obelix
* obelix:/usr save: File index error, client file index is too large
* obelix:/usr save: Cannot open save session with obelix
* obelix:/var save: File index error, client file index is too large
* obelix:/var save: Cannot open save session with obelix
* obelix:/opt save: File index error, client file index is too large
* obelix:/opt save: Cannot open save session with obelix
and so on ...
Well, the index file of the database was to big:
# pwd
/export/nsr/index/obelix
# ls -l
total 4114692
-rw-r--r-- 1 root other 1901 Apr 6 08:52 README
-rw------- 1 root root 2106548224 May 14 10:16 db
# nsrls
obelix: 8332053 files requiring 1692048 KB
/export/nsr/index/obelix/db is currently 83% utilized
#
Solstice Backup 4.2.2 and Solaris 2.5.1 has a file size limit of 2GB.
I try to check the database und reclaim space, but it doesn't work.
I think, the file was to big, to do something.
I get some answers, but no solution to fix this problem.
So i try something - perhaps not very cool, but it helps me:
I cut the db-file to a size of 1,4 GB and started rebuilding the database.
This works without errors. The new db-file was then 1,9 GB (i don't know
why it grow). Then i reclaim space again. And now the system was working again.
Thanx for all hints - and don't laugh about my solution .... :-}
