bpbackup not working
Hi all,
Need some help here. One of my customer got a backup script that used "bpbackup" command. All this while the script running smoothly and can be seen on Activity Monitor but recently the scrip...
Thanks for this information.
At least now we know that 'bpbackup not working' means that there is nothing wrong with the binary and that it fails with 'Server status = 42'
Can you please post the contents of this log (/root/backupstatus/backup.log)?
Can we see output of 'bpclntcmd -pn' on the client?
Can you confirm that the master server is 1st SERVER entry in client's bp.conf file?
Do you know if there is a firewall between master and client? If so, can you confirm that vnetd (port 13724) is open in both directions? (As from 7.0.1, pbx (port 1556) will be tried first, then vnetd).Status 42 means the following:
network read failedAn attempt to read data from a socket failed.Do the following, as appropriate:* Verify that both the client and the server are operational.* Resolve any network communication problems.* Check the Problems report for clues.To troubleshoot, we firstly need to see if the backup request 'arrived' at the master server. For this we need bprd log on the master server.
If this log folder does not exist, it must be created under /usr/openv/netbackup/logs, followed by NBU restart.
Create bpbackup log folder on the client under /usr/openv/netbackup/logs, then retry bpbackup.Copy logs on client and master to .txt files (e.g. bprd.txt) and upload as File attachments.
