Patch Name: PHSS_18257 Patch Description: s700_800 10.X OV OB3.00 patch - Sybase packet Creation Date: 99/08/25 Post Date: 99/09/15 Hardware Platforms - OS Releases: s700: 10.00 10.01 10.10 10.20 s800: 10.00 10.01 10.10 10.20 Products: OmniBackII A.03.00 Filesets: OMNIBACK-II.OMNI-SYB-P Automatic Reboot?: No Status: General Release Critical: No Path Name: /hp-ux_patches/s700_800/10.X/PHSS_18257 Symptoms: PHSS_18257: Id = NSMex02457, NSMex02350 If client name for Sybase database is 30 characters long, backup fails. Id = NSMbb22179 sybackup.sh.temp script reports the error: "Dataserver is not running." Id = NSMex01967 User gets "RETVAL*8213" error with multiple data- or backup servers. Defect Description: PHSS_18257: Id = NSMex02457, NSMex02350 OB2 Sybase integration is using end of string character for determining the Sybase database name. If the name is 30 characters long, then next string is added to the name, so the name becomes corrupted. Resolution: Fix is implemented in libob2syb.sl. Id = NSMbb22179 sybackup.sh.temp script does not correctly check the input variables. Even when more than one dataserver is running on one machine, it reports the error: "Dataserver is not running". Resolution: The script now identifies the dataserver and checks if it is running. After that the connection to the server is established. Id = NSMex01967 The problem occurs when there is more then one backupserver or dataserver running on the same machine. Resolution: Now OmniBack connects to the dataserver and queries for the backup server. Then it connects to the backup server. An error message is reported if any of these connections fails.
