networker9: is it possible to clone more than 500 save sets in one job?
Hi All,
in different environments (e.g. NW9114 and NW9203) the problem is when to clone more than 500 save sets the clone job runs into error with message:
Action status:failed
Action start time:XXX
Action duration: 2 hours 51 minutes 26 seconds
Total 1239 save sets, 866 Failed.
When the same Action clones less than 500 save sets everything's OK.
In both environments there are DD-Systems running.
Is this a known feature? Didn't find anything regarding this (maybe wrong search term...).
Regards,
Frank.

It might be also issue with DD (depending on DDOS) as it will break your single stream into multiple ones and merge that on destination and there is chance that you might hit one of those hard limits for sessions depending on hardware. Hard to say without more data. As you are on 9.2.0.x I would suggest to go for 9.2.1.2 instead - .0 versions are never good choice for some more challenging setups (if I remember correctly 9.2 GA was known as 9.2.0.2 so I doubt 0.3 had all issue cleaned up and it was SP1 which was mostly focusing on nsrclone related issues).

We rely on scripted cloning to clone from DD to tape.
For sure we have more than 500 SS in a list file.
AFAIR there was a limit of about 2000 SS/job but this has been solved long ago in NW 7.6.x.
However, it i possible that another clone method may have such limitation.

OnkelFrank,
To be honest cloning has been the worst with NetWorker 9.x. The issue that you are seeing might be related to the new RPS feature. If you are using anything less than 9.1.1.6 I would suggest you to upgrade you NetWorker server to the latest 9.1 GA i.e. 9.1.1.7 which by far(at least for us) the most stable 9.x NetWorker version.
Which is your NetWorker version ?

Hello,
thx for replies.
As described: version is 9.2.0.3.
In that environment only DD Systems running.
I set up concurrent cloning, but here I always get in trouble. NMC says: cloning NOT successful, mminfo says: all Save Sets cloned...

There seems to be a limitation in DD Systems because of Licensing and/or DDOS 5.7.2.0 (customer said)...
