HP B6960-90078 manual Data Protector Fails to Start an Interactive Session

	Troubleshooting
	Troubleshooting Backup and Restore Sessions
	Data Protector Backup sessions are not started at all
	(UNIX-specific)
Action	Run the crontab -lcommand to check whether the omnitrig program
	is included in the crontab file. If the following line does not appear, the
	omnitrig entry was automatically added by Data Protector:
	0,15,30,45 * * * * /opt/omni/sbin/omnitrig
	Stop and start the Data Protector daemons by running the omnisv
	-stop and the omnisv -start commands in the /opt/omni/sbin
	directory.
	Data Protector Fails to Start an Interactive Session
	Every time a backup is started, permission to start a backup session is
	required and checked for the user who is currently running Data
	Protector. If the user does not have sufficient permission, the session
	cannot be started.
Action	Check and change the user rights for the particular user. Refer to
	Chapter 3, “Configuring Users and User Groups,” on page 81.
	Poor Backup Performance on Novell NetWare Server
	Backup performance on a Novell NetWare Server may be poor. Backup
	does not run continuously, but intermittently. This is a well-known
	problem caused by the system TCPIP.NLM.
Action	Set the following parameters:
	• NW5.1/NW6.0: SET TCP DELAYED ACKNOWLEDGEMENT = OFF
	• NW5.0: SET TCP DELAYED ACK = OFF
	This increases backup performance without any secondary effects.
	Data Protector Fails to Start Parallel Restore Media
	Agent on Novell NetWare Clients
	Data Protector UNIX session manager sometimes fails to start restore
	media agents in parallel on Novell NetWare clients with an error
	message like, for example, Could not connect to inet or Connection
