AIR error 84 during Replication.

Quick reply, Mark, thanks. I'd tried the DNS and it was OK booth ways. When you add the Replication Target you add the server and the credentials for the MSDP. I persume you wouldn't get connection if the credentials didn't match.

Here is the output from the activity monitor: " 02-04-2014 09:35:36 - requesting resource LCM_*Remote*Master* 02-04-2014 09:35:36 - granted resource LCM_*Remote*Master* 02-04-2014 09:35:37 - started process RUNCMD (2456) 02-04-2014 09:35:38 - Info nbreplicate(pid=2456) Suspend window close behavior is not supported for nbreplicate 02-04-2014 09:35:38 - Info nbreplicate(pid=2456) window close behavior: Continue processing the current image 02-04-2014 09:35:39 - requesting resource @aaaab 02-04-2014 09:35:39 - reserving resource @aaaab 02-04-2014 09:35:39 - reserved resource @aaaab 02-04-2014 09:35:39 - granted resource MediaID=@aaaab;DiskVolume=PureDiskVolume;DiskPool=C02-D2P-C02-ADV-G;Path=PureDiskVolume;StorageServer=hostA.domain1;MediaServer=hostA.domain1 02-04-2014 09:35:41 - Info bpdm(pid=7184) started 02-04-2014 09:35:41 - started process bpdm (7184) 02-04-2014 09:35:42 - Info hostA.domain1(pid=7184) Using OpenStorage to replicate backup id hostA.domain1_1396423687, media id @aaaab, storage server hostA.domain1, disk volume PureDiskVolume 02-04-2014 09:35:42 - Info hostA.domain1(pid=7184) Replicating images to target storage server hostC.domain2, disk volume PureDiskVolume 02-04-2014 09:41:43 - Critical bpdm(pid=7184) Storage Server Error: (Storage server: PureDisk:hostA.domain1) async_get_job_status: Replication started but failed to complete successfully: Error occured during replication.

ok - work through this one to see if it helps .. if nothing else the logs may throw some light on things:

Hi Mark and Watsons. You both showed the way to the solution, but Watsons was a little more excact according to the name of the logfile. The log mentioned "unable to resolve the hostname". The hostname mentioned was WITHOUT SUFFIX. I use FQDN everywhere so it seems like a bug in the communication between Master server (hostC1.domain2) and mediaserver (hostC.domain2). I cannot se where the hosts name without suffix should come from. Watsons gets the "solved" in close competition with Mark.

I missed to mention that I used the HOSTS file to resolve the host.
