As a wild guess - Backup Manager is using NDMP to discover relationships. You did enable NDMP on new secondary and configured NDMP credentials in Backup Manager? ________________________________________ From: Jeff Cleverley [jeff.cleverley@avagotech.com] Sent: Saturday, March 31, 2012 02:54 To: Borzenkov, Andrey Cc: toasters@teaparty.net Subject: Re: Operations Manager / Backup Manager.
Andrey,
Unfortunately these are not helping.
We are using Backup Manger in Operations Manager, and not Protection Manager. We already know that whatever is done in PM won't be seen by OM or from the CLI. That is one of the reasons we don't want to use PM.
I ran "dfbm primary dir add <destinationfiler>:/sv_vldummy sourcefiler:/vldummy/test" This will show the volume as a primary for the destination volume. The entry will disappear about an hour later.
I can still do a manual snapvault update, but the relationships in DFM go away including the schedules, so no snapshots are getting created after the transfer.
The dfmcmd.log shows the job to create it running, the gui shows the job completed, but later the svmon shows it was deleted. It doesn't say why. There are other entries about backupSources tables but I can't figure out what it means.
There are a few relationships that still work, but we don't know why they survive and still show up while most of the others fail.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeff

Protection Manager has wizard to import existing SnapVault relationship; did you try it?
Otherwise these KB articles give example how to re-import existing relationship after source change; may be the same technique works in case of destination change as well?

Greetings,
We have a 3.8 version of OM/DFM that has been managing backups from multiple sites to a NearStore. We just moved the shelves to a different NearStore yesterday due to disk count limitations. Everything went well except OM will not recognize the new destination for the relationships.
A snapvault status on the secondary shows all the relationships and the aggregates and volumes are online. We did a snapvault start -S of the relationships, a snapvault update, and also a snapvault release on the primaries. The primaries all show the correct relationships.
OM can see the new destination filer and all the volumes, so it has access. It has also figured out the original NearStore volumes and relationships are not there because it removed them, and also emptied the schedules of any backup relationships.
We tried a "Add new backup" which seemed to have worked except it did an Initialize of the relationship according to the snapmirror log file and seems to have done a baseline. We cannot re-baseline all of these relationships.
Does anyone know how to get these relationships into OM without having to do a new baseline?
Thanks,
Jeff
