  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • After replication role is switched by changing the REPLMODE for
    a node from RECEIVE to SEND using:
    
    REMOVE REPLNODE
    UPDATE NODE XXXX REPLSTATE=ENABLED
    
    REPLICATE NODE on source replication server can fail with
    ANR9999D_4160640106 if there exists an orphan TOC with no image
    on target replication server.
    
    
    ACTLOG will show for example:
    
    ANR9999D_4160640106 AddToReplicationList(nrmain.c:20152)

    ANR1936E Replication of BACKUP data for file space xxxx (fsId x)
    on node xxxxx failed with reason: Reason code 1114.
    
    Tivoli Storage Server trace on Source Server with trace flags
    REPL REPLSESS GROUP shows:
    
    [imgroup.c][1669][imGetAttrObjOwner]:Owner object not found for
    object xxxxxxxx with objType 17 in node xxx, fs x
    [imgroup.c][1683][imGetAttrObjOwner]:returning main objid 0 for
    attr objid xxxxxxxx, rc: 1114
    
    
    This APAR will be used to address the cause of the orphan TOC so
    that will be fixed as well in addition to add toleration code to
    allow replication to skip the orphan TOC and continue.
    
    
    Tivoli Storage Manager Server Versions Affected:
    Tivoli Storage Manager Version 7.1.1 and above on all supported
    platforms
    
    Initial Impact:
    Medium
    
    
    Additional Keywords:
    TSM, replicate node, replication, toc, IBM Spectrum Protect
    

Local fix

  • To avoid the problem:
    Always run EXPIRE INVENTORY before running REPLICATE NODE.
    Particularly before running REMOVE REPLNODE to switch roles.
    
    To clean up from the problem after it has occurred:
    
    1. Delete the problem filespace on target replication server
    2. Run EXPIRE INVENTORY on source replication server, to clean
    up
    3. Run REPLICATE NODE on source replication server, to backup
    data on target
    
    
    Contact IBM support for an option to delete the object that
    results in the ANR9999D_4160640106 message
