    Looks like oracle host did not respond to a network connection in time

    listen for client timeout during accept from data listen socket after 60 seconds

    its like a phone call where no one is answering. Verify connectivity with bptestbpcd as Marainne pointed out and re-try the operation.

'Something' has changed causing connectivity to fail. 
Any chance that the master is no longer listed as 1st Server entry in the Registry? 

Important to test connectivity from master and media server as well as connectivity initiated by the client to the master server.

Ensure log folders exist before running tests:
Master: bprd (NBU must be restarted after folder is created)
Media: bpbrm (This is for backup-related troubleshooting)
Client: bpcd and dbclient (for connectivity and backup troubleshooting)

Connectivity tests: 
On master and media server: 
bptestbpcd -client <client-name> -debug -verbose

On client: 
bpclntcmd -pn
