    I had a look at your previous posts to see if this is a new installation or existing installion where everything used to work well before.

    So, it seems to be a new issue on installtion that worked well before, right?

    The fact that backups are crashing seems to indicate that this is not only a GUI issue.
    What are the error codes when backups fail?

    Have you had a look at NBU master's 'general health'?
    Specifically resources such as memory and cpu usage (keep 'top' open in separate window to monitor)
    and disk space (check output of df -h). 

    Are all NBU processes running?
    Check output of 'bpps -x'

    Above output will be a good start before we start digging into logs.... 

  • You have 2 processes that are using all of the server's CPU %:
    dsm_sa_eventmgr and dsm_sa_datamgrd. 

    This will most certainly cause everything else on the server to hang/timeout. 

  • Hello marianne
    Thanks for the help. a card had to be updated that ordered that the firmware be updated.

    The problem was solved
