Problem description: | |
IBM Spectrum Protect Snapshot version 8.1.6.1 running on Linux for Db2, Oracle, SAP on Oracle or Custom Applications fails to freeze filesystems on Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 6 or 7 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server version 11 or 12. The following error message could be shown: 09:31:06 FMM1200E Profile parameter 'LVM_FREEZE_THAW' is set to YES but freeze/thaw is not supported by the underlying file system. 09:31:06 FMM9300E Additional support information: Aborting 'send' operation. See previous error. 09:31:06 FMM1255E The process cannot continue. Reverting changes. 09:31:06 FMM9224E The operation will be aborted. Check for other error messages in the log files. If TRACE is enabled in the profile then the acsgen trace file will erroneously show that filesystem freeze is not supported: 04:01:02.871 400 (7f21a821f700) esd-pythonobj.hpp:52 ESD_PythonObj::getAttr: is_freeze_supported 04:01:02.874 400 (7f21a821f700) esd-pythonobj.hpp:52 ...

Problem Summary: | |
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * Users of IBM Spectrum Protect Snapshot for Unix/Linux * * v8.1.6.1 that want to freeze file systems during snapshot * * operation on Linux (parameter LVM_FREEZE_THAW is set to * * YES). * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * See error description * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** | |
Local Fix: | |
The only local fix is to disable freeze/thaw in the IBM Spectrum Protect Snapshot profile by setting LVM_FREEZE_THAW to NO. This may result in a so called 'forced mount' operation during a snapshot backup operation where the filesystem consistency will be verified by mounting the snapshot backup on a backup system. | |
