DP9: [61:1002] Inactivity timeout on CONFIGURATION object

We do currently face some problems on different jobs where we are running a backup of the complete machine (see the error below):

If I unselect the CONFIGURATION object the job runs without any error. If I create an additional job with ONLY the CONFIGURATION object this one also completes without error. As soon as it is within one job we see the following error:

[Major] From: BSM@xxx.yyy.zzz "XXX" Time: 28.09.2016 03:20:36
[61:1002] The BMA named "XXX [GW 3836:1:4014134147542123963]" on host xxx.yyy.zzz
reached its inactivity timeout of 8400 seconds.
The agent on host will be shutdown.

[Major] From: BSM@xxx.yyy.zzz "XXX" Time: 28.09.2016 03:21:15
[61:1002] The BMA named "XXX [GW 3836:2:4014134147542123963]" on host xxx.yyy.zzz
reached its inactivity timeout of 8400 seconds.
The agent on host will be shutdown.

We're currently running DP 9.07_110, but we did see this already in earlier DP9 versions.

Any suggestions?

    Hi,

    There is multiple reasons why this could happen. Please provide entire session output and your backup specification.

    There are omnirc variables that can be modified and BSM will wait longer for BMA to react, but I would suggest that we track down what is the reason behind this.

    Did you check VSS snapshot setting creation on your APP host. Or maybe there is something that can be done with concurrency…

     Regards AlesKol

    Hi,

    From session output we can see  that BMA did not connect to BSM in specified period of time.  Now this can be resolved multiple ways.

     * If these backup are NOT meant to be used for DR, then omnirc OB2NOTREEWALK can be used. This will decrease initial time for BMA to connect to SM, at certain cost -> please reed description.

     * SmMaIdleTimeout is global option than will force BSM to wait longer for BMA activity.

     

    May I ask, how long does the “only C and E drive” backup take, maybe you are already on the edge of 8400 seconds, and configuration backup just tips it over the edge. As said, there are multiple solutions, depending on what would you like to achieve with backup.

    Regards AlesKol

    maybe look to reduce concurrency or move the order of CONFIGURATION object to the top of the spec. See how that goes...

    Make sure to untick Statistic Information in the backup spec (in addition to disabling other tree walk with OB2NOTREEWALK=1 in omnirc).

    Please use the Accept Solution button next to my post and assign a KUDO (thumbs up icon) if this works for you.
