NetBackup BMR bmrprep

[ryunosuke]

I am currently stuck with the BMR restore script.
I want to execute bmrprep by using PowerShell invoke-command from another host which is not MasterServer.
However, executing the bpnbat command from a remote computer failed.

-----------------------
PS D:\script> Invoke-Command NBUMaster -ScriptBlock { D:\Program` Files\VERITAS\NetBackup\bin\bpnbat -login -info d:\work\authfile -loginType WEB }
Authentication successful but unable to store the user details on the current host.
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (Authentication ...e current host.:String) [], RemoteException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : NativeCommandError
+ PSComputerName : NBUMaster
-----------------------

Is there a way to use bmrprep from a remote computer?
Or is there a way to avoid authentication?

Environment
NBU8.1.1 (Windows)

Hello,

it is a very specific problem. Is bpnbat working outside PowerShell? And what about d:\work\authfile path, does it exist on the Master?

Some reference also here:

Thank you for replying.
Yes. "authfile.txt" is on the master.

Also, invoke-command from the master to the master itself has the same result.
Is there a way to succeed or avoid authentication?

Hello,

when commands outsite PS are OK, then you should consult this problem also on a PowerShell forum, not only on NetBackup forum.

I guess it is something with PS security settings..
