Failed opening the device mappings file
Please suggest.
Hi 114
This is not unexpected. In clustered mode NetBackup operates as active and standby. There are various directories that are configured to follow the active node. The catalog is the primary one, but also included is the var/global directory which among other things contains the device_mapping.txt file.
It is more usual and better practice to run (most of) the commands from the active node as the standby node will be missing important items.
Cheers
David
