[Fedora-directory-users] db2bak Question

[Steve Rigler]

We use Netbackup for our backup environment and I'd like to incorporate
"db2bak" into our bpstart_notify script (which is run every time a
backup starts).  The one thing I've noticed is these messages that
appear syslog when db2bak is run:

 ns-slapd: sql_select option missing
 ns-slapd: auxpropfunc error no mechanism available

Are these messages indicative of a problem?  This is on RHEL4 U4 on an
AMD64 system using Fedora DS 1.0.4.

Thanks,
Steve

I think you can ignore these.  We do not use the sasl sql auxprop code.  
Do you see those at normal ns-slapd startup, or only in db2bak mode?

I see them both at startup and when db2bak is run.  It doesn't look like
it's preventing anything from working since ns-slapd starts fine and the
backup files are created.

This is a bit of a tangent, but have you confirmed the backup files are valid?

I haven't had the opportunity to try it yet.  Hopefully I'll be able to
get around to it in the next few days.

Aye, I'd check it out to ensure the backup script worked, especially in light of
the error messages. I'll have to claim ignorance since I am not familiar with
the script and if it has a validation process.
