The nmcdb backup is a backup of the postgres database files used by the NMC server. The nmcdb client uses the backup command savepsm. During the nmcdb backups, files are "staged" to the nmcdb_stage directory: Linux: /nsr/nmc/nmcdb_stage Windows: [Install Drive]:\Program Files\EMC NetWorker\Management\nmcdb_stage The nmcdb_stage directory is backed up, once the backup completes the nmcdb_stage directory is cleaned up. There is insufficient disk space on the NMC installation drive to stage the files from the online nmcdb directory to the nmcdb_stage directory.
There are three options. 1. Reclaim disk space by removing files which are no longer needed. The files which can be cleaned up must be determined by the Operating System Administrator. 2. Increase disk space on the NetWorker installation drive. The disk space should have enough space to copy or stage the entire nmcdb directory into the nmcdb_stage directory. If the /nsr partition reaches 100% disk space usage, the nmcdb can become corrupted. If the system includes the NetWorker server package and /nsr reaches 100% disk usage, NetWorker server databases may become corrupted. For NetWorker Virtual Edition (NVE): NetWorker Virtual Edition: How to increase /data01 partition size (XFS) For non-NVE systems, consult with the system administrator for increasing disk space. 3. Move the nmcdb_stage directory to another drive with more space. If disk space on the /nsr partition is low, reclaim or increase it. You can also move the nmcdb_stage directory to a larger partition. A. Create a nmcdb_stage directory on another drive. For example: nve:~ # mkdir /space/nmcdb_stage B. Update the NMC client resource's save set field to specify the full path to the new staging folder: C. Perform a backup of the nmcdb and verify that it completes successfully. Optionally, validate the backup with the mminfo command: mminfo -avot -q client= NMC_clientName
