Upgrading to SME 7 with Backup2ws
« on: May 04, 2006, 11:32:54 PM »
Hi Everyone,

My plan for upgrading from 6.1 to 7.0 is to change the hardware platform aswell because it's old and proberly needs to be changed sometime soon anyway. So here is what I have tried i to do.

1. Make an emergency 911 backup, using backup2ws on old server.

2. Install fresh SME 6.1 on new hardware.

3. Do a restore using backup2ws on the new server.

The problem:

end of old server /var/log/backup2ws/911.log file (This seems fine)

Adding    /root/dmc-mitel-backup2ws-0.0.1-14.noarch.rpm                   OK
Adding    /root/rar-3.1.0-1dmc.i386.rpm                                   OK
Adding    /root/smeserver-backup2ws-0.0.1-22dmay.noarch.rpm               OK
Adding    /root/hpasm-7.4.0-56.rhel4.i386.rpm                             OK
Adding    /root/.viminfo                                                  OK
Done


end of new server /var/log/backup2ws/restore.log (seems far from ok)

Extracting  /root/descriptions.txt                                    OK
Extracting  /root/dmc-mitel-backup2ws-0.0.1-14.noarch.rpm             OK  
Extracting  /root/rar-3.1.0-1dmc.i386.rpm                             OK
Extracting  /root/smeserver-backup2ws-0.0.1-22dmay.noarch.rpm         OK
Extracting  /root/hpasm-7.4.0-56.rhel4.i386.rpm                       OK
Extracting  /root/.viminfo                                            OK
Total errors: 39013


Ok here is what I have cheked, the version of the backup2ws is the same on both servers.

Old server:

[root@lesme60 .ssh]# rpm -qa | grep backup
smeserver-backup2ws-0.0.1-22dmay
flexbackup-1.1.7-1es
e-smith-backup-1.12.1-02
e-smith-flexbackup-1.8.0-01


New server:

[root@lesme601 backup2ws]# rpm -qa | grep backup
flexbackup-1.1.7-1es
e-smith-backup-1.12.1-02
e-smith-flexbackup-1.8.0-01
smeserver-backup2ws-0.0.1-22dmay


The idea was to upgrade the new servers 6.1 to 7.0 but thats no good when the restore job didn't complete succesfully.

Any help would be much appreciated
Regards Troels

Hej Troels...

Har du checket hvor de 39013 fejl kommer fra?
Med andre ord er der linier "Extracting..." der ikke ender med "OK"?
