    telnet is not successfull from both sides.

    No need to perform any further troublehooting  from NBU side.
    NBU is not going to work if network connection at TCP-level is unsuccessful.

    In which direction is telnet unsuccessful?
    On which port?

    Have you escalated to OS and network admins?

     remote host supports PBX, but PBX is not running 

    Which OS on Client? 
    Which NBU version on client? 

    Check output of 'ps -ef' on client and look for these processes:

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd -standalone
    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/vnetd -standalone

    /opt/VRTSpbx/bin/pbx_exchange

    Before you test again with bptestbpcd, create bpcd log folder on the client.
    See if anything is logged in bpcd after failed test.

    If not, check for firewall - including OS firewall such as OS 'hardening' and iptables on Linux clients.

    Please find attached BPCD log file output.

    Please let me know if any other information required.

    Find out from OS admins if any security-related OS-hardening was done.

    It seems that client is receiving incoming connections, but is unable to connect back on 1556, 13724 or 13782.

    The same error can be seen for connect-back attempts for all 3 ports:

    17:28:33.370 [24379512] <16> get_vnetd_socket: vnet_end_connect_back failed: 10

    Hmm. The bpcd log is full of ERRNO=2 messages. That is a "File not found" thing.

     

    Just on a hunch. Have you tried to do "bpclntcmd -clear_host_cache"?

  • Marianne's avatar

    Host cache refreshes automatically once per hour. This means that if the backup is still failing with the same error, the problem is not with host cache.

    Have you spoken to OS admins as per my previous post?

    Can you telnet from the client to the master and/or media server on port 1556 and 13724?

    What does this command on client return? 

    bpclntcmd -pn
