... blocking operation is currently executing....

 

Job details show that connection was attempted first on PBX (port 1556), then vnetd (port 13724), then bpcd (13782).

So, it seems that there is either a firewall between the media server and the client, or else OS firewall on the client is blocking port connections. If OS firewall, disable it.

Be convinced that Windows Firewall on both sides allows connections and that the server and the client resolve each other.

Follow the above suggestions by ipmanyak, and don't forget to check the client end YYYYY-e1 that:

1) Netbackup client services are up and running.
2) Netbackup registry key to ensure it can access by master server (or bp.conf for Unix client). I have seen many times that a client belongs to another master server. 
 

3) bpclntcmd -pn  should returns the correct client hostname and IP address.
