connection to 13782 and 13724 getting close automatically

Master Server Solaris Media server Solaris Client Solaris Netbackup version 6.5 on master , media and client Backup of one of our client is getting fail with 58.bpcd logs are not generating on client side even on increasing verbosity. When I try to telnet on port 13782 and 13724 from master or media connection gets disconnected automatically and shows connection closed by foreign host.
  • Is the client behind a firewall or DMZ? 

    Or perhaps OS hardening done on the client?

    Can you see bpcd and vnetd entries on the client in /etc/inetd.conf and /etc/services?

    Can you see bpcd and vnetd 'LISTENING' in 'netstat -a' output?

    PS:
    NBU 6.5 ran out of support almost 2 years ago.
    In NBU 7.x, the above processes run as standalone processes and no longer part of inetd.
    Time to upgrade!

  • In addition to suggestions of Marianne, also check the forward and reverse name resolution with bpclntcmd comamnd as follows.

    bpclntcmd -ip client_ip

    bpclntcmd -hn client_name_mentioned_policy

    Is this new client added to backup ?
