Ndmp Events - HP StorageWorks x9300 Administrator's Manual

NDMP events

An NDMP Server can generate three types of events: INFO, WARN, and ALERT. These events are
displayed on the management console GUI and can be viewed with the ibrix_event command.
INFO events. These events specify when major NDMP operations start and finish, and also report
progress. For example:
7012:Level 3 backup of /mnt/ibfs7 finished at Sat Nov 7 21:20:58 PST 2009
7013:Total Bytes = 38274665923, Average throughput = 236600391 bytes/sec.
WARN events. These events might indicate an issue with NDMP access, the environment, or NDMP
operations. Be sure to review these events and take any necessary corrective actions. Following
are some examples:
0000:Unauthorized NDMP Client 16.39.40.201 trying to connect
4002:User [joe] md5 mode login failed.
ALERT events. These alerts indicate that an NDMP action has failed. For example:
1102: Cannot start the session_monitor daemon, ndmpd exiting.
7009:Level 6 backup of /mnt/shares/accounts1 failed (writing eod header error).
8001:Restore Failed to read data stream signature.
You can configure the system to send email or SNMP notifications when these types of events
occur.
