Please show us output of :

nbrbutil -dump
(in ...Veritas\NetBackup\bin\admincmd)

Copy the 'MdsAllocation' section at the bottom of the output and post here.

Also show us output of 'vmoprcmd' on the master server.
(in ...Veritas\volmgr\bin)

You gave us very little information, you did not respond to requests for more info, then you come back more than a month later (when you have a new problem ) told us how you solved it (which would be obvious when looking at the output we asked for) and mark your own post as solution. This is not the way to operate if you are going to look for continuous assistance. Please work with us when we are trying to assist?
