Node missing from vertica backup

Products

• CA Infrastructure Management
• CA Performance Management - Usage and Administration
• DX NetOps

Issue/Introduction

I have found that for one of the nodes in a DR ( 3 server cluster ) , automatic backup is not happening.

Environment

Release : 3.7

Component : IM Reporting / Admin / Configuration

Cause

If one node is down in a 3 node vertica cluster, the backup will work but the down node will not be included.

Resolution

Using admintools, select option 5

Restart vertica on node.

Once the node has recovered, manually run a backup.
