Exclude Drives failing with 25 and 71

Client OS - Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise

Master server OS : Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server"

NBU version : 8.1.2

Backup selection : ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES

Hello Team - Any idea why exclude drives still showing up in activity monitor and failing with status 25 & 71? This occurrence recently started 2 days ago after working fine for a while now. Could this be some bug related? Has anyone came across this before?

 

  • Hello All,

    Very sorry for getting back late...Thank you so much for the contributions. Turns out even though these drives were disconnected from the servers, they are still mapped to the server which could be seen from "Disk management" under server manager. I went ahead to to remove both drives  from exclusion list, restarted nbu services and that solved the issue .Thanks again all for your contributions.

  • I think;

    You should check,

    *hostname resolution issues

    * is client connected the master through ip which you want.

    * clear host cache.

    * check hosts file if client use it.

    Good Luck.

     

  • Can you post the Detailed Status from the failing jobs, as well as the Exclusion List for the failing client? Is the failure occurring on an UNC path or CIFS share? If so, look at this: https://www.veritas.com/content/support/en_US/article.100046446

    Lots of possible options, such as removable media being added/removed, new drive being mapped, etc.

    Was this client recently patched? If everything was working before and suddenly began failing, that could be the culprit.

      EthanH - I think I pretty much have an idea what's going on. But meantime, We can eliminate error 71. But am still curious reason for exit status 25. detailed status below. 

      To answer your question :

      Exclude drive = M:\ ( This drive is shared by 2 systems in cluster. This is a mapped drive from vmax)

      Client regularly get patched which hasn't cause any issue before
