Hello,
cause is usually on network level.
run bptestbpcd -host "host" from Master Server (and Media Server if applicable) to the client.
The same from client to Master (media).
Or simply telnet to port 1556, bidirectionally.
Run nslookups in both directions.
Add Backup selections manually (without browsing) and run backup. How does it end?
Well, finally, what does it mean - "NetBackup 7.6.1 and 8.1"? Dont you have higher version on the client than on the Master?
regards
Michal

C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\admincmd>bptestbpcd -host client.name
<16>bptestbpcd main: Function ConnectToBPCD(client.name) failed

cannot connect on socket
I took time to give output.
I did not find bptestbpcd on client side.
Telnet to port 1556 was ok, bidirectionally. Same for nslookup in both directions.
I did add manually backup selections and got error code 58 with backup jobs failing.
I'm currently facing the same issue on 2 different servers, one with version 7.6.1 and the other one with 8.1
