Unity 5.0(1) dbWalker errors

James Hawkins

Level 8

Hi,

A customer has a Unity 5.0(1) for Domino server. They want me rebuild the server with a different name and as a member of a different domain.

To do this I have to rebuild the server from the OS up and then restore from a DiRT backup. Before taking the DiRT backup I need to make sure that dbWalker does not report any errors.

When I run dbWalker I get the errors shown below:

*** Starting General System Checks ***

    @PrimaryServer = [TG-WILTS-UM1]

    Primary server name found = [TG-WILTS-UM1]

    SchemaMajorVersion = [ 3]

    SchemaMinorVersion = [ 21]

1654:(error) no Unity messaging system account found in the subscriber table (subscriber type of 0).  This can mean that no one has called into Unity and accessed their inbox yet.  Normally a restart of the Unity server and calling in will automatically create this account.  If not, please contact TAC for assistance

    Checking LastModifiedTime column for all entries in the Configuration table

*** Starting subscriber walk ***

These errors are associated with the Unity Messaging and UnityBroadcast system accounts so I do not think that I can follow the recommendations about deleting and recreating them.

Does anyone have any recommendations on how to fix this?

Thanks

Been a long, long time since I've looked at a Domino backed Unity setup but I believe those errors all stem from the first one - it's expecting those system accounts to be of type "0" which indicates they are "special" and don't need those exit destinations and such (i.e. you can never call in as one of those users and log in hence no need for a COS or an exit destination etc...).

Not sure right off hand how/why those accounts would not have the types correct - but DiRT should handle this on restore - the system you install will have those system account built as normal (i.e. as they should be) and DiRT's logic is to find the corresponding user entries by name/alias and update their settings - it specifically leaves those system users alone in this process - so I think you should be ok in this case.

Jeff,

Thank you very much for your answer.

I was expecting a busy night liasing with TAC about this but thought I'd put it on NetPro first. My lucky day that you saw it and kindly took the time to respond.

I will now enjoy my evening before starting the migration tomorrow

Thanks again

James
