Hi all,
My backup was in queue for a long time. I am working on command line.
Using bpadm command, I Checked the policy details and storage information.
Please find the policy details below.
Policy: unix_passwd_change
Modify Policy Attributes (<ESC> to quit)
-----------------------------------------
1) Policy Type/subtype : Standard
2) Active : Yes
3) Collect True Image Recovery Information : No
4) Cross mount points : No
5) Follow NFS mounts : No
6) Client Compression : No
7) Client encryption : No
8) Allow multiple data streams : No
--) Collect disaster recovery information : No
--) Collect BMR information : No
11) Maximum number of jobs per policy : Unlimited
12) Required storage unit : passwd_stu1
13) Volume pool : NetBackup
14) Server group : *ANY*
--) Granular Restore : No
16) Keyword :
17) Priority as compared to other policies : 0
18) Take checkpoints : No
19) Set Policy Attributes for Snapshot Client.
When I tried to check the storage info, I got the following error message.

Kindly help me on this.

Hi, have you checked available drives? which version of NB are u using?

Seems like you've not authenticated to VxSS using bpnbat -login.
Try running bpstulist from CLI and see if you get the same error.

Hi,
>have you checked available drives? which version of NB are u using?
We are storing it locally. I am using netbackup 6.5.4.
>Try running bpstulist from CLI and see if you get the same error.
I am getting the same error.
root-/>bpstulist
VxSS authorization failed - VxSS access denied(3000007)
>Seems like you've not authenticated to VxSS using bpnbat -login.
Please tell me how to do this.
Thanks in Advance!!!

Hi,
Lets just make sure VxSS if configured before we go any further.
Check if USE_VXSS= is set to PROHIBITED or AUTOMATIC
You can find this in the bp.conf on UNIX or Registry on Windows.

Hi,
Please find the bp.conf file.
SERVER = HPtestsvr
CLIENT_NAME = HPtestsvr
EMMSERVER = HPtestsvr
VXDBMS_NB_DATA = /usr/openv/db/data
AUTHORIZATION_SERVICES = HPtestsvr
But , earlier I was able to take backup using this server.
Please help.

Seems USE_VXSS entry does not exist in your bp.conf , I assume that's master server.
Can you do /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpnbat -login?
When running that command, you will be asked to keyin your authentication info. If you don't know the info, you probably need to talk to your root user or NBU main admin (whoever setup the VxSS for this server) to get those info.
We won't be able to tell what happen until you can login and run with another bpadm to see if issue persists.

Hi,
HPtestsvr:root-/>/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpnbat -login
Authentication Broker:
Authentication port [0 is default]:
Authentication type (NIS, NISPLUS, WINDOWS, vx, unixpwd):
The input data was bad
What should i give for this?
Kindly help me with this. Thanks in Advance!!!

Is what you pasted from the master server, or a (SAN) media server?

That's what I told you earlier.. if you do not know what to put there, you need to ask your admin. We won't know your NBAC environment and setup. Your admin should know.

Hi,
Uncomment AUTHORIZATION_SERVICES = HPtestsvr from bp.conf, stop and start the services.
