How to restart the netbackup service in linux client server.

How to  kill the netbackup service force full in  linx client server.

The following command output is from a SLES 9 client running NetBackup 6.5.  This example shows the output from the bpps -x command, which will show no daemons are running.  The NetBackup client software registers itself with inetd or xinetd on UNIX or Linux clients.  The netstat -a (or netstat -an) command can be used to verify these daemons are in LISTEN status, indicating they are listening for incoming connections.  There will be no active NetBackup daemons on a client unless a backup or restore operation is in progress.  

# cd /usr/openv/netbackup/bin
# ./bpps -x

# netstat -a | grep vnetd

Add on to Andy's post:

From NB7.0.1 onwards, you will see bpcd & vnetd running as a daemon in Unix clients:

root     14411     1  0 Nov30 ?        00:00:00 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/vnetd -standalone
root     14423     1  0 Nov30 ?        00:00:02 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd -standalone

To restart that, simply kill them and run the command.

i.e. 7.x use  /etc/init.d/netbackup  script to start|stop the client

Agree with wrobbins - after V7 it is really easy:

/etc/init.d/netbackup stop

/etc/init.d/netbackup start

[Yogesh9881]

to STOP all netbackup services forcefully run below command

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/./bp.kill_all

to START all netbackup services forcefully run below command

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/./bp.start_all
