Explanation of status 2826:
NetBackup status code: 2826
Message: Master server failed to connect to backup restore manager on media
server for restore
Explanation: A process on the master server cannot connect to a process on a
host on the network. This error occurs when the process tries to initiate
communication with the server that has the storage unit. This problem can occur
during a restore in either a single or a multiple server configuration.
RecommendedAction: Try the following possible solution in the order presented:
■ From the master server, ping the master and all media servers by using the
host names in the storage unit configuration.
■ From each of the media servers, ping the master server by using the name that
is specified in the NetBackup server list. On a UNIX or Linux server, this master
is the first SERVER entry in the bp.conf file. On a Windows server, the master
is designated on the Servers tab in the Master Server Properties dialog box.
■ Check that all services are running on the media server.
