    Check the media server and ensure the drive where NetBackup is installed is not full.  I'm thinking you have logging enabled and turned up too high on your media server, and the backup job is failing because the media server has no space left to write the next log entry.

    If the problem really is due to a shortage of space on the media server, check your logging settings in the NetBackup client and make sure they are set to their lowest setting, then delete the old log files in C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\logs\*.

    Status 155 means that the disk where NBU is installed on the master server is full.

    Extract from Status Code Guide:

    NetBackup status code: 155

    Message: disk is full
    Explanation: The write to the catalog file failed because the disk that contains
    the catalog database is full.
    Recommended Action: Free up space on the disks where NetBackup catalogs
    reside and retry the operation.

    This may be a basic question, but is the policy pointed at some sort of tape library for its storage unit? Is it possibly pointed at a disk, that is full?

    Just seen this :

    Fair to say you can look at this and think, which disk is it talking about .. - its perhaps not totally clear.

    You can tell from the error it is the master server that is the full disk.

    Error bpbrm(pid=4192) db_FLISTsend failed: disk is full (155)

    bpbrm sends the catalog info to the master, and runs the db_FLIST fuction to do this - hence you therefore know which disk it is ...
