DOCUMENT:Q256347 03-MAR-2001 [exchange] TITLE :PRB: HrGetBackupLogs() Must Not Be Called Before HrBackupClose() PRODUCT :Microsoft Exchange PROD/VER:winnt:4.0,4.0 SP1,4.0 SP2,4.0 SP3,4.0 SP4,4.0 SP5,4.x,5.0,5.0 SP1,5.0 SP2,5.5,5.5 SP1,5 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbEDK kbExchange kbExchange500 kbExchange550 kbMsg kbEDK550 kbGrpDSMsg kbDSupport ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 4.0, 4.0 SP1, 4.0 SP2, 4.0 SP3, 4.0 SP4, 4.0 SP5, 4.x, 5.0, 5.0 SP1, 5.0 SP2, 5.5, 5.5 SP1, 5.5 SP2, 5.5 SP3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== - Information store does not start and hangs after restoring a backup using Tivoli client v1.1.1. - If HrBackupGetBackupLogs() is called before HrBackupClose(), the call succeeds. However, the result of the backup is a database that cannot be restored consistently. CAUSE ===== This behavior occurs because HrBackupGetBackupLogs() returns a list of log files that must be backed up. That list is generated only once per backup session, and the same list is returned from each subsequent call to HrBackupGetBackupLogs(). If HrBackupGetBackupLogs() is called before the database backup is complete, the list of log files is incomplete. RESOLUTION ========== To resolve this behavior, the HrBackupGetBackupLogs() must be called after you call HrBackupClose() on the database. To resolve this behavior with Tivoli client V1.1.1, upgrade to ver 1.1.1.01 of the client. STATUS ====== This behavior is by design.
