rconnolly Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 We are in the process of moving servers to a co-location site and had all our backups and catalogs stored on a NAS. The NAS is part of a data de-duplication device that replicates synchronizes with another server. All Retrospect backups\catalogs were stored on server DDR-1 and replicated to DDR-2. DDR-1 is now offline and I need to write to DDR-2 which is in sync. I will switch back to DDR-1 in 2 weeks. Without changing the script files to point to DDR-2, i added an entry to the Retrospect hosts file that has DDR-2's IP address with DDR-1's name. From a network\communication standpoint, this is working fine. When my backups go to run, they receive an error that the catalog file is locked. When I go to Configure - Backup Sets, I see all the snapshots, sessions, and members. What is the correct way to handle this change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayoff Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 You may have a permissions problem that makes the catalog appear locked. Make sure the System Account has access to all Retrospect data. what operating system is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rconnolly Posted September 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Disregard, it looks like the Retrospect user does not have write rights to the DDR-2 server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
