OK, there’s not a lot about NetWorker that drives me nuts. I think I’ve done only one other “Quibbles” topic here so far, but I’ve reached the point on this one where I’d like to vent some exasperation.<\/p>\n
There are times \u2013 not often, but they occasionally happen \u2013 where for some reason or another, a device will lock up and become unresponsive. When this reaches a point where the only way to recover is to either kill the controlling nsrmmd process or restarting NetWorker, things get tough.<\/p>\n
The reason for this is that NetWorker does not, anywhere, provide a mapping between each nsrmmd, the device it controls and the process ID for that device<\/em>.<\/p>\n Honestly, this is one of these basic administrative usability issues for which there is no excuse<\/em><\/strong> that it hasn’t been resolved and available for the last 5 years, if not the last 10 years. It comes down to either laziness or apathy \u2013 people have been asking for it long enough that with all the changes done to nsrmmd over the years, it should have been added a long time ago.<\/p>\n What do you think?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" OK, there’s not a lot about NetWorker that drives me nuts.
