Backup failing with error code 90

Any Exclude list for this client for J:\ ?
or J:\* ?

If not, create bpbkar log folder on client to troubleshoot.

Please show us the exclude list from the client

Those 3 files are custom Windows change journal files and shold be excluded from backup

NetBackup 7.5, introduced a new client property called Use Change Journal to be used in conjunction with the Accelerator feature.  When this option is enabled, bpinetd.exe generates a custom Change Journal Database which depends on the Windows Change Journal.  The NetBackup generated database files are located on the root of each lettered volume.

Example:
VxCJInfo.dat   (does not exist until a backup is performed)
VxCJDelete.dat
VxCJMon.dat

Please find my exclude list in the attached.

I tried backup with and without the exclusion. But no luck.

Please find the bpbkar log attached.

Note: i have changed the client name to "server0001", master server to "masterserver0001" and media server to "mediaserver0001"

Why specify files/folders in Backup Selection that have been added to Exclude List?

I havent.

My backup selection is " I:\* " 

and in the exclude list,  for I drive, i only have " I:\VxCJDelete.dat" , "I:\VxCJInfo.dat", "I:\VxCJMon.dat".

Even these were added to check if it fixes the issue. 

Thanks.

Do you have 'Allow Multiple Data Streams' in Policy Attributes?

This will create a separate stream for each item under  I:\*.
So, in effect you have actually specified each file name...

Remove the tick-box if you have it selected in Attributes.

I have multi streaming enabled.

It will work fine if i disable it.

But due to the size of the drive( and considering the future growth), i need to have multiple stream enabled. 

The choice is yours.

You cannot have the backup selection as is with Exclude List the way you have it defined.

Other choices are to disable Change Journal or to ask Microsoft if it is possible to move the location to a sub-folder.

FYI - My testing has shown that the NetBackup Client automatically excludes the three VxCJ*.dat files - and so... if you have a policy/client configuration which selects these files - then you will always get a status 90 for the streams which are the VxCJ*.dat files.

It's a shame that the 'wild card resolver' part of the client does not also exclude (i.e. not select) these three files.

But then - what if you were not using Change Journal, and if you had a legitimate file named VxCJ*.dat - in which case you would want it picked up.

But then maybe the wildcard resolver should/could also check first to see if Change Journal was enabled, and if so, then drop the three file names from the run-time resolved list.  Maybe submit an idea/enhancement request for this new feature?

Sdo, 

spot on...my problem is that the 'wild card resolver' is picking up the VxCJ* files and are failing with status 90.

i was thinking that i am missing something here and causing this failure.

This is failing my monitoring and standard reports.:(

May be we shall submit an idea as you suggested....
