Backup network drvs: no
backup network Drives is selected as No,
it needs to be selected to take the network drives... as per your backup selection they all are network Drives..
so check backup network Drives in policy attributes too..

Hi All,
Does the problem with selecting new streams? why i'm asking because all the 4 failed jobs its showing as backup_id "Newstream" only.
02-27-2014 08:21 PM
did you select the allow Multiple data stream in the policy attrubutes...?
when you set the NEW_STREAM in backup selection, Allow Multiple data stream in Policy attrubutes should be selected.

Hello Nagalla,
Yes the Checkbox is Enabled, do i need to do any thing more?
02-27-2014 08:45 PM
Please show us entire policy config.
Run this command from cmd on the master:
bppllist NETAPP_DRIVE0-2 -U
(command is in <install-path>\veritas\netbackup\bin\admincmd)
02-27-2014 09:01 PM
along with the output of bppllist command as Marianne request..
take out the first NEW_STREAM entry and make sure the first entry is some valid data path and then try backup.

Hi Nagalla,
Thanks for your post, i enabled it now, now we are upgrading the clients to 7.5 once it was done i will run backup and update you the status.
02-27-2014 10:17 PM
Please remember to double-check the Logon account for NBU Client Service after the upgrade - it is sometimes reset to the default LocalSystem account.
The Client Service must be started with a domain user logon account that has access to the share.
02-27-2014 10:32 PM
Ya sure Marianne/Nagalla, i will follow your posts, thanks for your valuable suggestions.
02-28-2014 03:15 AM
I seem to remember that IP addresses are not supported for UNC path backups
Give it a try using the server name instead and see if that works
