Veritas Netbackup not working

Hi,

I encounter some problem while trying to setup the Veritas netbackup administration console 6.5. It shows "The host is not defined in EMM". Then I saw that the ltid deamon is not started and here's the following log. 

09:40:19.058 [1078] <4> ltid: INITIATING 09:40:19.059 [1078] <2> mm_getnodename: cached_hostname kenanga, cached_method 3 09:40:19.078 [1078] <2> mm_getnodename: (4) hostname kenanga-mgt ( from mm_check_required_interface) 09:40:19.078 [1078] <4> ltid: auto_correct_paths set to 0 09:40:21.105 [1078] <4> InitLtidEMM: emmserver_name = kenanga-mgt 09:40:21.105 [1078] <4> InitLtidEMM: emmserver_port = 1556 09:40:21.105 [1078] <4> InitLtidEMM: ThisHost = kenanga-mgt 09:40:21.124 [1078] <2> Orb::init: initializing ORB Default_CLIENT_Orb with: ltid -ORBSvcConfDirective "-ORBDottedDecimalAddresses 0" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static PBXIOP_Factory ''" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static EndpointSelectorFactory ''" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static Resource_Factory '-ORBProtocolFactory PBXIOP_Factory'" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static Resource_Factory '-ORBProtocolFactory IIOP_Factory'" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static PBXIOP_Evaluator_Factory '-orb Default_CLIENT_Orb'" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static Resource_Factory '-ORBConnectionCacheMax 1024 '" -ORBSvcConf /dev/null(Orb.cpp:691) 09:40:21.206 [1078] <4> InitLtidEMM: connected to EMM server 09:40:21.206 [1078] <2> mm_getnodename: (0) hostname kenanga-mgt (from cached_hostname) 09:40:21.220 [1078] <4> InitLtidEMM: Device Mappings version in EMM database is 1.66 09:40:21.220 [1078] <4> InitLtidEMM: Local device mapping is up-to-date 09:40:21.246 [1078] <4> InitLtidEMM: Releasing media server allocations 09:40:21.247 [1078] <2> Orb::init: initializing ORB Default_CLIENT_Orb with: Unknown -ORBSvcConfDirective "-ORBDottedDecimalAddresses 0" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static PBXIOP_Factory ''" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static EndpointSelectorFactory ''" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static Resource_Factory '-ORBProtocolFactory PBXIOP_Factory'" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static Resource_Factory '-ORBProtocolFactory IIOP_Factory'" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static PBXIOP_Evaluator_Factory '-orb Default_CLIENT_Orb'" -ORBSvcConfDirective "static Resource_Factory '-ORBConnectionCacheMax 1024 '" -ORBSvcConf /dev/null(Orb.cpp:691) 09:40:21.279 [1078] <4> InitLtidDeviceInfo: RobotCount = 0 09:40:21.279 [1078] <4> InitLtidDeviceInfo: DriveCount = 0 09:40:21.280 [1078] <6> logstderrmsg: No Entries in the Drive Database 09:40:21.280 [1078] <16> TermLtid: Shutting down ltid, ToAnswer = no

This is the /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf file

SERVER = kenanga-mgt
CLIENT_NAME = kenanga
EMMSERVER = kenanga-mgt
VXDBMS_NB_DATA = /usr/openv/db/data
REQUIRED_INTERFACE=kenanga-mgt

the hostname is kenanga

Any suggestions?
  • No, you should add your management workstation to the SERVER list in master's bp.conf.
    It should look as follows:

    SERVER = mgmt-hostname

    Please don't forget to make NetBackup to reread bp.conf by issueing bprdreq -rereadconfig.
  •  where do i add this? is it a file?


    here's the /etc/hosts file too.

  • i've updated the bp.conf, stop and start netbackup. At the kenanga (6.5 Enterprise Server_ Netbackup Administration Console, I've tried to run the Getting Started. When it reach the Scanning Hosts, it ask me to exit the wizard. So i click yes. Warning message "The host is not defined in EMM Invalid host" and "server name not found in NetBackup configuration (status 254)".

  • You have marked the post as being SOLVED??
    Please share more info about your installation.
    Are you trying to configure NetBackup with the second interface name?
    Which name did you specify during installation?

    "The host is not defined in EMM"
