I'm having trouble successfully creating a new Windows SRT with the Boot Server Assistant GUI in Windows.
I get to the point of "Adding Fast Restore Windows files to the SRT. Extracting files into Shared Resource Tree", it copies a whole bunch of stuff and then hangs for a long time. Finally I get a popup that says: "Could not add plug and play data file to srt."
Any ideas?

Hi Ian,
What version of Windows is this boot server on?
You could bump up the debug logging level in nblog.conf to 6 and try to recreate the SRT.
Once you hit the error again, take a look at the bmrsrtadm log (OID = 125, so the log file name will be something like nnnnnn-125-xxxxx.log where n & x are some numbers.)
This log file will be in c:\program files\veritas\netbackup\logs (assuming a default location installation)
Actually you can check the log file even now before bumping up the logging level, but I am not sure if it will show lot of information, but worth a try, might give you some pointers on what could be going wrong.
HTH,
Amol.
