    Hi dears and thanks for replies

    After my request to change one client attached to DD, Infrastructure team detach one operational client from network switch, as I learned all of clients added to DD must be alive but disk storage server going down, I uncked this client on storage server section in NBU and storage server worked well.

    Thanks

    Try this as well:

    ./nbdevconfig -changestate -stype DataDomain -dp DD990-DiskPool -dv ddboost-stu -state RESET

    If it didn't stay up, you might want to check the DataDomain plugin to make sure it's OK - or if version is supported.

    At my previous company, we had a customer where this started happening regularly. The DD was simply not responding to NBU. The only way to get it to work again was to reboot the DD.
    (They eventually replaced the DDs with different type of OST storage.)

    I suggest you start investigation on the DD.

        Clients should NOT be added as Storage Servers.
        Unless you install the client as (San) media server.
