stiBack and CSA Errors

[rbewlay]

With CCM 3.3.3sr4, OS 2000-2-5sr6, StiBack 3.5.44 I am getting errors at the end of the backup. All appears to backup OK from the publisher to the first subsciber in a shared directory. The file is there and correcly dated and 700MB in size. Also running CSA Agent 4.0.1.539 with CCM-CSA Policy 1.1(3). Which gave me an error

Any thoughts?

I only suspect that the problem is with the CSA. As you say, the backup is successful, this problem might be a minor one. Also check this bug CSCed55022 which is on similar lines.

Came to same conclusion and TAC confirm it. Workaround doesn't help. No one is going to suspend CSA at 2am to run an automated backup.

Awaiting TAC response

I am having the same problem. Were you ever able to fix this?

Thanks

Haven't tested it yet - CSA is disabled at present, but the TAC case I opened ended up with a new release of the CSA policy to 1.1(4) here: http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/tablebuild.pl/cmva-3des

Note that my clent is still running CCM 3.3(3) and MCSBackup 3-5-44 (3-5-53 is the latest) rather that the newer web based MCSbackup 4-0-2 which may make a difference
