Backup From Snapshot job fails with error 129
In a NetBackup 11.1 environment, this issue occurs when the MSDP or MSDP-C storage unit becomes full and there is no available space to write backup data.
The backup from snapshot job fails with the following error:
Disk storage unit is full (129)
:
Free up space in the MSDP or MSDP-C storage unit to allow new backup jobs to complete successfully.
Expire unneeded backup images
Identify and expire backup images that are no longer required for restore operations.
This releases storage capacity for new backups.
Reclaim space in MSDP
After expiring images, MSDP may not immediately reclaim the freed space.
To accelerate this process, manually process the MSDP transaction queue.
For more information, refer to the 'Processing the MSDP transaction queue manually' section in the NetBackup™ Deduplication Guide.
