Newly added client - backup failing with error 112

I added a new client to an existing MS-Windows backup policy.

I have the netbackup agent installed on the client, the backups are failing error 112.

(112) no files specified in the file list

bptestbpcd if failing for this client from the master server.

kindly need your help in understanding the issue.

  • Please create bpcd log on the client and run bptestbpcd again.
    Do you see a log file in the folder?
    If not, there is a comms issue outside of NBU. Either Windows firewall, security software, external firewall or something similar.
  • ,FROM 0.0.0.0 TO newhost 10.x.x.x bpcd VIA pbx status: FAILED, (42) CONNECT_REFUSED; system: (110) Connection timed out; FROM 0.0.0.0 TO newhost 10.x.x.x bpcd VIA vnetd status: FAILED, (42) CONNECT_REFUSED; system: (110) Connection timed out; FROM 0.0.0.0 TO newhost 10.x.x.x bpcd

     

     

    it points to windows firewall services, please check and disable them from start>run>services.msc.

    ANd try to create inbound/outbound rules for PBX, Vnetd, bpcd under Server Manger> Configuration> windows Firewal & advanced Security> inbound/oubound rules > create new rule.

    It should be opened vice versa. 

    except it also make sure name resolution does not have any issue.

    Hi sorry for the delay in response.

    At client side we had to open the respective ports :

    BPCD - 13782 
    VNETD - 13724 
    PBX   - 1556 
     
    telnet and bpcd were not working
     
    telnet port was also not opened.
     
    Once when all these issues are fixed, the backup started running successfully.
     
  • What did you enter in Backup Selection of the policy?

    Please show the policy config.
    From cmd (in ...\netbackup\bin\admincmd):

    bppllist <policy-name> -U

    Please copy the text output and post here.

      About bptestbpcd failing - please show us the output?
      (Include -verbose and -debug options)

      Have you checked that Windows Firewall is disabled on the client?
