Backup getting failed with error 59

Backup getting failed with error 59 from a particular media server while from  rest of media servers backups are fine.

 

Client's bp.conf entry:

    Enable the bpcd log on the client. Then rerun a bptestbpcd -client clientname. From thr media server. Then goo check the incoming IP in the bpcd log on the client. Does it resolve to the SERVER hostnames in the bp.conf ?

    if possible try by adding all interfaces of server "mkefiswnbums01-bkup.fnfis.com" in bp.conf file of client.

    also check output of 

    bpclntcmd -hn mkefiswnbums01-bkup.fnfis.com

    bpclntcmd -ip ip_address_of_mkefiswnbums01-bkup.fnfis.com

    on client and see if it is resolving it.

    If possible add the prod FQDNs and the alias small names if any in the bp.conf and run the below command from the master server.

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpcoverage -c <client name>

    If the above command resolves with the proper output, then start the backups.

     

    Cheers...!!!

    Can u give bpclntcmd -hn mkefislnbums02-bkup.fnfis.com o/p ..the media server from which backup is successful ?

    A status code 59 occurs when client communicate with Master /media serer ,because client doesn`t have the Master /Media server properties properly defined in the configurtion files, /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf

    Then check the network connectivity between client & Media /Master , 

    telnet hostname portnumber(bpcd) from other server.

    Why do you have this setting in the client bp.conf?

      REVERSE_NAME_LOOKUP = PROHIBITED

     

     

     

     

    From Technote (emphasis added)

    The Prohibited property indicates that the NetBackup host does not try reverse host name lookup at all. The host resolves the host names of the known server list to IP addresses using forward lookups.

    The NetBackup host then compares the IP address of the connecting server to the list of known server IP addresses.

    If the comparison fails, the NetBackup host rejects the connection from the server and the connection fails.

    'bpclntcmd -hn ' will only check forward name lookup.

    You need to check reverse name lookup on the client: 
    bpclntcmd -ip 10.80.183.227

    I cannot see how this will work without reverse lookup - NBU client receives connection request from media server IP address. Reverse lookup is needed to resolve IP to hostname that appears in bp.conf.

    You need client's bpcd log to see how media server IP is resolved and to see how resolved name is compared with bp.conf entries.

    on the master server go to the host properties and check media servers are listed or not, if not then add it.

    This error occurs because client may not having the entries of master and media server in its /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf file..pleas emake entry of these.

    From the server use command--> telent <client>

    Name resolution should be closely analyzed if the requesting server appears in the client’s server list, but the Status 59 is still seen.  In this case, the hostname comparisons made on the client between the server list and resolved host name are not matching.

    “bpclntcmd” is a useful utility that can be run from any Client. 

    bpclntcmd -pn


    bpclntcmd -hn <hostname_of_masterserver>

    bpclntcmd -hn <hostname_of_mediaserver>

    bpclntcmd -hn <hostname_of_client>

    just enable the bpcd log on the client server. send us the bpcd logs o/p .. then only will tell u what need to add in client bp.conf entries.. as EC 59 come when client doesn`t have the Master /Media server properly defined in the bp.conf  ..
