SQL Backup Failed with Error code 59

From the last couple of days my SQL backup is getting failed with error code 59. I have checked all the communication between master server and media server and client there was no issue but still my backup is getting failed.

Any idea what will be the issue.

  • i guess you need to add the FQDN of the client to master and vice versa.

    it should resolve it.

  • The client needs to resolve incoming request from media server's IP to a hostname. This hostname is then compared with the SERVER entries on the client. Failure to resolve IP to hostname or hostname not in SERVER list, causes status 59.

    Please ensure that you have bpcd log directory on the client.

    Try the backup again, then post the bpcd log.

  • First do a admincmd/bpcoverage -c <clientname> from media server

    it will fail with error 59

    then take login of SQL Client and  Make entry of media server in netbackup servers list

    1.Open the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface

    2. Select File > “Specify NetBackup Machines and Policy Type”

    3. Select the “Servers” tab.
    4.Verify that the Master/Media Server(s) are added to this server list, and that the Master Server is set as “current”.

    5. Click OK after adding any needed servers and exit Backup, Archive and Restore.

  • Hi,

    I have no idea why this "Symantec Suck" comes in between this threads...

    All bull sheads..........

    I have never heard about this............

    Thanks..

  • Client name is successfully resolving form master and media server both.Please note that my SQL server is working as Media Server as well.

    I have just checked it on my master server that in media server host properties my media server name was not there i have added and restart the services on media and master server. Futher more i made a new script as well. Will update once the backup will run.
