Hi,

I have the following scenario

Legato server : Solaris 8. Legato 7.1
filer / ndmp : netapp : ndmp version 4. NetApp Release 6.5.2R1:

Problem.

NDMP backups complete fine, no errors shown,

however when I attempted a save set restore, I get the following error message;

Tape record size is too small. Try a larger size.


I have tried restores of previous save sets, both in and out of browse perion, and I am getting similar errors.

Any suggestion on resolving this and verifying integrity of
ndmp dump. With a straight dump, I would do something like running scanner and piping the output to restore directly to the legato server. However this does not seem to work with ndmp backups..
 
Seems to be a known issue if the backup was run with NW 6.0.1 without patch 1.

The workaround is to run a saveset recovery with the option "-v off".


BTW - you can not use scanner as it will not work with NDMP bachups.
