    You need to check client's /etc/hosts file.

    Your client cannot resolve master's IP address to valid hostname.

    Please check the size of bpcd file, sometimes this issue is caused due to 0KB file for bpcd

    /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd

    Also verify netstat on client show port number 13782 or BPCD as listening.
