Not able to communicate the master serve from media server

[APJAK]

Hi Forum members

I am bulding a netbackup test environment and experiencing an issue "Media server not able to communicate the master server.."

The current environment is as follows.

NBU version -- 7.1

Master server -- Solaris 10 X86

Media server  --Win 2008 X64

Here is some output which I tried from master to media and media to master...

Master Server:-

bash-3.00# bpclntcmd -hn WIN-NBUMEDASER1
host WIN-NBUMEDASER1: WIN-NBUMEDASER1 at 192.168.100.41

Media Server:-

C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin>bpclntcmd -is_master_server Solaris10-NBU

You have 2 choices:

1. Add your Solaris server to the Windows DNS
2. Add hosts entry on the media server for the master (seems you already have hosts entry on the master for the media server)

[APJAK]

Hi Marianne,

This is a test environment and I don't have DNS setup.

I have added the master and media server details in the /etc/hosts file in both master and media servers.

[Marianne]

Double check C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts entry on media server. Possible incorrect entry?

Status 48 says 'hostname could not be found'.

Can you ping Solaris10-NBUMaster from the media server?

(Hopefully you have disabled UAC on the Windows media server?)

[APJAK]

HI Marianne,

Thanks I have resolved the hosts entry issue, now I am able to ping the host from master and media servers and do the bpclntcmd from master and media servers, but still when I click the media server I am getting the error "cannot connect to socket"

I have read one of the topic in the forum posted by Roger.G "NetBackup 7.x Communication between Master & Media Server". I have followed your suggestions and attaching the logs

bash-3.00# bptestbpcd -host WIN-NBUMEDASER1 -verbose
<16>bptestbpcd main: Function ConnectToBPCD(WIN-NBUMEDASER1) failed: 25
cannot connect on socket
##Attaching the master server bpcd logs

Forward and reverse hostname lookup in both directions:

Master server:

bash-3.00# bpclntcmd -hn WIN-NBUMEDASER1
host WIN-NBUMEDASER1: WIN-NBUMEDASER1 at 192.168.100.41
aliases:     WIN-NBUMEDASER1     192.168.100.41

Media server:-

C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin>bpclntcmd -hn Solaris10-NBUMaster
host Solaris10-NBUMaster: Solaris10-NBUMaster at 192.168.100.80

[Marianne]

Have you disabled Windows Firewall on the Media server? 

[APJAK]

Yes, I have disabled the windows firewall in the media server, still getting the same error..

bash-3.00# bptestbpcd -host WIN-NBUMEDASER1 -verbose
<16>bptestbpcd main: Function ConnectToBPCD(WIN-NBUMEDASER1) failed: 25
cannot connect on socket
 

[V4]

Can you reset network connection from Switch end. also do verify netstat output.. what status does it shows to connection established in between

Presuming Ports are allowed throughout all the security layers you have in your domain (e.g. SCSP/SEP/McAfee etc.)

[APJAK]

Hi Jack,

This is a test environment, the windows media server is a VM, I have reset the network adapter..

This is the netstat ouput

C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin>netstat -a

Your media server bpcd log does not show any connection attempt from the master.

This is what made me believe that Windows firewall may be running on the media server.

Now that you have reset network adapter, we see ESTABLISHED connection with Master:

Solaris10-NBUMaster:1556  ESTABLISHED

Have you tried bptestbpcd connection again from Master?

[V4]

Is issues arising post deployment or is intermittent. Was wondering if it was post deployment you did not got any warning of connection being interrupted (NBU does pre-check when deploying media server to ensure it reaches EMM /master)

What security application do you have at both master/media?

Do you see nbemmcmd -getemmserver and listhosts) listing this media server? (Run from master/media under admin cmd

[APJAK]

Hi Marianne

Yes I have tested the bptestbpcd connection from Master, but still it's failing

bash-3.00# bptestbpcd -host win-nbumedaser1 -verbose

NBU is case sensitive. Seems the SERVER entry in master's bp.conf is lower case. Case MUST match in OS and NBU config. Please also check NBU registry entries on Windows media server.

[V4]

Out of box question

Was media server renamed ?

Please post bpcd logs

Are multiple NIC configured at either of host?

[Marianne]

We see 2 media server entries on the master: 

media              win-nbumediaserver
media              win-nbumedaser1

Seems master can now communicate with  win-nbumedaser1, but not with win-nbumediaserver.

Where does win-nbumediaserver fit in the picture?

It is really best to stick to lowercase and not this mix of uppercase and lowercase.

I guess lookup and connection to win-nbumedaser1 is working because you have added aliases in hosts files?

**** EDIT ****

This post was based on your previous output.

PLEASE start from scratch and stick to ONE CASE - not this mix.

I prefer to always use lowercase.

[APJAK]

Hi,

The entries in the bp.conf file and the media server name are in same case..

bp.conf file output from the master server

bash-3.00# cat /opt/openv/netbackup/bp.conf

VXDBMS_NB_DATA = /usr/openv/db/data

SERVER = WIN-NBUMEDASER1
MEDIA_SERVER = WIN-NBUMEDASER1
 

Hostname from the Client:-

C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\admincmd>hostname
WIN-NBUMEDASER1

However in the media server registry I can see the media server name in lower case, I have modified the media server name to upper case in the registrey.

After changing the registrey entries I have  ran the bptestbpcd -host <media-server) and nbemmcmd -getemmserver in the master server but still getting the same errorr.

[APJAK]

Hi Marianne,

I hae started from scratch, built the new test env with a solaris master and windows media server.

I have disabled the windows firewall, and stick to the hostnames in lower case.

I am still getting the same issue again..please suggest me how resolve the issue..

bp.confi output from master server:-

bash-3.00# cat /opt/openv/netbackup/bp.conf
SERVER = nbumaster
CLIENT_NAME = nbumaster
CONNECT_OPTIONS = localhost 1 0 2

EMMSERVER = nbumaster
HOST_CACHE_TTL = 3600
VXDBMS_NB_DATA = /usr/openv/db/data
SERVER = win-nbumedia
MEDIA_SERVER = win-nbumedia
 

bash-3.00# hostname
nbumaster
 

C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup\bin>hostname

I have added the media server manually to emm database

bash-3.00# nbemmcmd -addhost -machinename win-nbumedia  -masterserver nbumaster -emmname nbumaster -machinetype media -operatingsystem windows -netbackupversion 7.1.0.0

Then try to get the emmserver details, still getting the error messages...

Thanks in Advance

* Host file entries correct for both master and media servers?

* Have services been restarted on master/media after you've made any changes?

* Does bpclntcmd resolve names correctly?

* Does the bp.conf entries exist for master/media servers and are correct?

Media server bpcd log contains no record of connection attempt. 

Either firewall blocking connection attempt or something wrong with Media server network interface.

Can you telnet to any ports om media server? Try pbx and vnetd.
