Resolution

When data is deleted from Centera, that data is first deleted from the Replica node and then replicated to the Primary node.  In some cases, replication may have been paused between the Centera nodes, reviewing the output from the Centera Viewer will determine if replication is paused.

Event Type: Error
 
Event Source: Enterprise Vault
 
Event Category: Storage File Watch
 
Event ID: 6760
 
Description:
 
Error from EMC Centera FPLibrary
 
Function call: NetworkPacket.checkControl(18)
 
Status: FP_OPERATION_NOT_ALLOWED (-10204)
 
Reason: The use of this operation is restricted (transid='VPRI12P21011B/23/EXISTS_CLIP')
 
Pool Address:

V-437-6760 

The Status error that is listed in the event means:

 
10204 FP_OPERATION_NOT_ALLOWED The use of this operation is restricted or this operation is not allowed because the server capability is false.
 

The following error may also be seen in the SDK log

 
[error]11904 [API] End FPClip_Exists(-,CLIPID): Error -10204
 


Solution:
Ensure that replication is allowed and is not paused to ensure that the content of the Centera is consistent between the Primary and Replica nodes.
