Hi ,

I have backed up a files lying on a network share (mapped to network dirve on the client), Once backup is done tried to restore the files to a different network share (both the share are lying on the same server). Respective restore fails with Incomplete status (MS-Windows policy restore error(2808)).

When you backup from a Network share Netbackup uses the Credentials that have mapped the share to perform the backup.. however when you restore Netbackup requires the credentials be used by the Netbackup Client Service.

Try this on the Media Server,

Stop the Netbackup Client Service

Hit the Logon tab Add the domain credentials for the share

restart the Netbackup Client Service

 

retry restore.

 

The issue isnt that its out of space, its that Netbackup is not allowed to write to the Share since the System Service is what Netbackup is using for restore. If you change the Client service ot use a login for the share it should be able to write to the share. One more thing if you are trying to write to a drive letter you wont be able to with any method from the master. This is becuase a network drive is mapped by a specific User in windows and since as stated earlier Netbackup uses the System user it wont have that mapped to the right drive letter.

 

Alternativly you might be able to perform the restore FROM the client with the drive letter mapped other wise you will have to use the UNC path to the share.

Main problem seems to be with Access Denied.

'can't create file: Z:\pid_28765\ost_restore (WIN32 5: Access is denied. )'

As per Douglas_A's post, check NetBackup Client Service Logon account.

Restore to UNC path instead of drive letter (drive letter is only valid for user logged on to client).
