Error description

  • Restore of replicated data from the target server fails with
    ANS1028S An internal program error occurred. In the error log
    prior to this message an ANS0361I DIAG: fileio.cpp (3173):
    fioWrite(): Unrecoverable error: NNNNNN Bytes left in receive
    buffer with a BLOCK_EOF sdb type can be found. Or in other cases
    the restore of replicated data from the target server fails with
    ANS4020E The data format for object '<failing path and file
    name>' is unknown. The unknown format usually occurs when the
    file was backed up or archived by a later version of IBM Tivoli
    Storage Manager.
    Restore of the original source objects from the replicating
    server complete without error
    For the ANS1028S/ANS0361I situation a service trace of the
    failing restore is needed to determine the problem object and
    it's object id. Searching the trace for the "BLOCK_EOF" entry
    will identify the failing object name. Searching the trace for
    the versid that follows will provide the object id. A show invo
    using this object id on the target server will show that the
    bitfile size of the object in bitfile object entry the is larger
    than expected (larger than the size in the inventory object
    entry):

    The replica id in the show invo output for the problem object on
    the target can be used on the source to get the show invo output
    for the original object and the bitfile size will be a smaller
    correct size.
    The problem with the replicated object is being created at
    replication time. A trace of the replication on the source
    server shows that there is a preemption of the replication of
    the object occurring. In the reporting case the object was
    originally being replicated from an active data pool. During the
    replication processing from this pool a preemption occurred, rc
    3008 (GRC_SEGMENT_PREEMPTED). The replication continues
    processing the object using another pool as the source but
    begins from the start of the object. This results in the
    replicated object on the target being larger (having more data)
    than it should. And subsequent restores fail.
    A BFRTRV trace of the replication introducing the problem will
    show the rc 3008 for one device class and then the attempt to
    retrieve the bitfile from a different device class:
    02:08:24.767 [381473][bfrtrv.c][4474][RtrvOne]:afRtrv returned
    3008 for FILE ADP.
    02:08:24.768 [381473][bfrtrv.c][4505][RtrvOne]:Attempting
    retrieval of bitfile 98765432 from DISK.
    With this level of preemption there is no external messaging
    that it has occurred.
    Tivoli Storage Manager Versions Affected: 6.3.5 and 7.1.x.x on
    all platforms
    Initial Impact: High

Local fix

  • To avoid the problem use the NOPREEMPT server option or
    determine source of the preemption and configure the server to
    keep that from occurring.
    To correct any problem objects once replicated with this issue:
    - Backup the problem object(s) on the source and re-replicate
    them to the target.
    Or
    - Delete the problem objects from the target replication sever
    and re-replicate the node.
