Referencing wrong boot server

 

Hi,
When I run the bmrsrtadm script on the master server it is referencing the incorrect server. When I run the script I am getting the below error where it is using the host name and IP address of one of the hosts that I am backing up as the boot server. 
 
masterserver# /usr/openv/netbackup/bin]$ ./bmrsrtadm
V-125-81 query for BootServer "example" returned 0 hosts
[Error] V-125-103 Cannot retrieve boot server information for this host.
Please see diagnostic log for additional information.
masterserver# /usr/openv/netbackup/bin]$ /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bmrsetupboot -register
[Error] V-128-899 Cannot determine the netmask for interface 10.248.0.47.
[Info] V-127-75 Operation failed.
 
Any ideas why it might be doing this. This host is not even registered as a boot server. 
 
Thanks!

    Hi Mark, It turns out that there was an entry in the bp.conf file for the client. So any time I ran bmrsrtadm script it was using this entry in the bp.conf file.

    CLIENT_NAME = example

    Thanks!

    Can i confirm that you have done the bmrsetupmaster on your Master Server before doing this so that the Master is registered as such?

    If you have then take a look under the netbackup logs for any that start in bmr* to see if they provide more info. If none exist the create bmrcommon, bmrd, bmrsetup and bmrsrt to see what gets logged when you try your configurations

    Hope this helps
