NAME
       nsrmmdbd - NetWorker media management database daemon

SYNOPSIS
       nsrmmdbd

DESCRIPTION
       The  nsrmmdbd  daemon  provides	an  RPC-based  database service to the
       nsrd(8) and nsrmmd(8) daemons, and query-only access to	the  NetWorker
       clients.	  The  RPC program number provided by nsrmmdbd is 390107.  The
       RPC version numbers provided by nsrmmdbd are 3, 4, and 5.  Nsrmmdbd  is
       normally started by nsrd(8).

       The  daemon  manages  a	``volume,  save	 set  and client id database''
       located in the directory /nsr/mm/mmvolume6.  The primary purpose of the
       database is to remember which save sets reside on which backup volumes.
       The database also provides the client name mapping  to  the  internally
       used  client  identifier.  Numerous access methods are provided to save
       set, volume and client id map records within the database.

FILES
       /nsr/mm/mmvolume6
		   Directory containing the media database.

       /nsr/mm/cmprssd
		   For performance and space reasons, the database is periodi‐
		   cally  rebuilt  (or compressed).  This file is created each
		   time the database is compressed; its	 associated  ctime  is
		   used	 to  determine the next time that the database will be
		   compressed. The database  compression  can  be  invoked  by
		   removing  this  file and running nsrim.  This is not recom‐
		   mended while the NetWorker server  is  actively  saving  or
		   recovering data.

       /nsr/mm/mmvol<n>
		   This	 temporary  file is created to hold the media database
		   information that will be  saved  to	a  volume  by  nsrmmd‐
		   basm(8).  A unique file name is generated by utilizing <n>,
		   a 6 digit hex number appended as part of the file name.

       /nsr/mm/mmvolume6.r
		   The file (created by nsrmmdbasm)  that  is  read  when  the
		   media database information is being recovered.

       /nsr/mm/volume.tmp
		   A  temporary directory created when recovering or compress‐
		   ing the media database.

       /nsr/mm/nsrim.prv
		   An empty file is used to track the last time that the  pro‐
		   gram	 nsrim	was started to perform maintenance on the Net‐
		   Worker databases.

DIAGNOSTICS
       The  nsrmmdbd  diagnostic  messages  will  normally  be	logged	to the
       /nsr/logs/daemon.log file.

       Besides the messages listed below, nsrmmdbd may generate other diagnos‐
       tics.  Any diagnostics other than those listed below indicate a serious
       problem with the media database.	 It may be necessary to	 recover  your
       media database using mmrecov(8) if that occurs.

       media db is converting, this may take a while
	      Any  media  databases  created  prior to the NetWorker 7.? (Key‐
	      Stone) release have to be converted (once) to the	 new  database
	      format. The database is converted to current version.

       media database conversion completed successfully
	      Printed when the conversion is completed successfully.

       media conversion failed! reason
	      Printed  when  the  conversion  is terminates unsuccessfully.  A
	      more detailed reason may be appended to the message.   NetWorker
	      cannot work until the media database is converted successfully.

       media db is saving its data, this may take a while
	      Printed  when  the  daemon is dumping its records to a temporary
	      file when the database is	 being	backed	up.   The  service  is
	      unavailable while the database is dumping.

       media db is recovering, this may take a while
	      Printed  when the daemon is reloading its database.  The service
	      is unavailable while the data is being reloaded.

       media db is checking btrees
	      Printed each time the daemon is restarted.  Upon	start-up,  the
	      daemon performs sanity checks on the database search indexes.

       media db is consistency checking the database
	      Printed each time the daemon is restarted.  Upon start-up, after
	      the database search indexes are checked, the database is checked
	      for incomplete records.

       media db is open for business
	      Printed  after any of the previous messages are printed to indi‐
	      cate that the service is once again available.

       media db is closed
	      Printed after the media database is successfully shutdown.

       A copy of this process is already running!
	      Another copy of nsrmmdbd(8) is currently running and has	exclu‐
	      sive  access  to	the media database.  Only one nsrmmdbd process
	      should be running on a given machine at a time.  This can happen
	      if  the  previous	 nsrmmdbd  was	not  properly killed off.  Use
	      nsr_shutdown(8) or ps(1) and kill(1) to identify	and  kill  off
	      all the NetWorker daemons before restarting nsrd(8) again.

       Cannot open lock file
	      An  internal  error,  check  the permissions on the /nsr/tmp and
	      /nsr/mm directories.
