Restore catalog NBU 7.1

Unfortunately as far as netbackup is concerned scsnb2 and scsnb2.unileaf.com.br are two different names and that is why it is unable to start the database as it cannot connect to scsnb2 - the tables / configuration files are all wrong.

You will have to start again

Uninstall NetBackup completely and make sure the registry is clean (HKLM\Software\Veritas\NetBackup)

and make sure C:\Program Files\Veritas has gone.

Next re-install NBU using the same name so just scsnb2 and patch to the same level as the original

The catalog should then restore - needs too much work to put the current installation right I am afraid

Let us know how you get on

Ok Mark, you are right, I will make new server with name scsnb2 and try to restore again, I´ll post here any result, ok.

Thank you very much.

Mark is 100% right. 
I had another look at unformatted version of Emm log. Enough helpful info to show that NBU is currently installed as scsnb2.unileaf.com.br but needs to find scsnb2.
scsnb2.unileaf.com.br != scsnb2, so, EMM cannot startup.

Since we see that LocalHost = <scsnb2.unileaf.com.br>, please add local hosts entry for the server itself before you re-install NBU as shortname:

<IP address> scsnb2 scsnb2.unileaf.com.br
 

Hi, I add local hosts entry for the server scsnb2, I´m running restore now since 9:45 hs, I think that is the same situation, but now I have bpdbm log for analysis, it is attached and hosts file too.

thanks.

Have you re-installed? There is a lots of internal netbackup naming at play here, not just name resolution

No Mark, I just add entry in hosts file and tried to restore again, as told Mariane.

What Marianne was trying to say:

Add the alias in hosts file before you re-install.

My reason for this recommendation is because the EMM log showed local hostname as FQDN.
So, shortname needs to be vaild at OS level (hosts file) as well as NBU installation.

Ok Marianne, thanks for explanation, I didn´t understood.

I´ll do that procedure with new server, and post here result.

Thanks again.

Hello Mark and Marianne. thank you very much for your help.

I follow your instructions as below:

- Unisntall NBU;

- Removed any program and folder with Netbackup or Veritas word from program files;

- Deleted any reference to netbackup and veritas from registry;

- Add line "ip_address and server_name" (old server name - scsnb2), on hosts file;

- Restarted server and installed NBU with the same version/patches of the old server;

- Made restore of catalog and everithing was running ok.

Thank you again.

Hugs.
