Now, please go back to your opening post and see what you posted there:

Why did you you perform bptestbpcd if you are doing agentless Hyper-V backup? 
We have waisted exactly one week trying to troubleshoot status 46 instead of status 58.

Can you please rather show us all the text in Activity Monitor details of the Status 58 job? 
(You may need to re-run the policy that had this error because the failed backup from a week ago will be gone from Activity Monitor.)

Status 58 can be caused by many things, such as:  no route to client, hosts file entry overrides DNS entry, hosts file entry has wrong IP, DNS name has wrong IP, client is down, client powered-off, client lost networking, client changed IP, ports not open across firewall, client not installed, client stopped, client un-installed, VM was deleted, network cable fallen out of back of physical server, someone crept into the data centre and has stolen the server... anyway, status 58 effectively means that the server was unable, for whatever reason, to reach the client... my advice is start by checking name resolution and then check network path and then check firewall(s) on backup server and on backup client and on network hardware / switches / routers / firewalls.

But you have status 46.

The problem is actually very clear from the output that posted:

Request from host mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra (10.0.100.20) to host MPX-VM-NAVINT01.snmvt.intra (10.0.112.250) is not allowed access.
Host mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra (10.0.100.20) is not an authorized server for host mpx-vm-navint01.snmvt.intra.

So, this means that there is no SERVER entry for mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra on host mpx-vm-navint01.snmvt.intra

Have you tried to add Server entry? 

hello  i don't understand  "no SERVER entry for mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra on host mpx-vm-navint01.snmvt.intra" 

how can i add ? please  (it men to add the ip @ of mpx-py-bacup02.snmvt.intra into /et/host of mpx -vm-navint01.snmavti.intra ) but the vm mpx-vm-navint01 in hyper-v

@netbackup22 

Did you install NBU Client software on mpx-vm-navint01 ? 
(It seems you or someone else did.)

Is mpx-py-bkup02 your master server or a media server? 

When you installed the software, there was  a screen where it asked for Master Server Name and Additional servers, right? 
Was mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra added in the Master Server or Additional Server text box? 

When you do that, it add the host names into the registry of the client as Server names. 
(Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VERITAS\NetBackup\CurrentVersion\Config)

Maybe the Server Name was added as mpx-py-bkup02, not as mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra. 

What is happening now is that client mpx-vm-navint01 is receiving a connection request from  server mpx-py-bkup02 IP address - 10.0.100.20. The client now tries to resolve the IP address to a hostname. 
On this client, it resolves the IP address to hostname mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra.
Next, it checks the NetBackup Server entries in it's own registry. 
If hostname mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra is not listed as a Server, the connection request is rejected. Status 46. 

You need to add mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra in the Client's Server entries. 

Please read up in NBU Admin Guide I chapter 3 about Host Properties. 

Did you install NBU Client software on mpx-vm-navint01 ? 
(as me know when we used a hyper-v or vmware where all VMs is not necessary to insatll client software  right?.)

Is mpx-py-bkup02 your master server or a media server? 

the  mpx-py-bkup02 is a master server and a media server

 

When you do that, it add the host names into the registry of the client as Server names. 
(Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VERITAS\NetBackup\CurrentVersion\Config)

Maybe the Server Name was added as mpx-py-bkup02, not as mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra. 

. so we will added mpx-py-bkup02.snmvt.intra  under .../config right?

please advice me and thank you so much

You need to do your own investigation. 
You never told us the policy type of the failing backup. This will determine if the master/media server will attempt an agentless or agent-based backup. 

You will know if you installed NBU client software for agent-based backup. 

If this is agent-based backup, then the master/media server needs to connect to bpcd (via pbx) on the vm.
The same procedure that you simulated with bptestbpcd. 
(Process flow is described in NBU Logging Ref Guide and in the Port Ref Guide.)

To check and update the client(VM)'s Server entries, you can try the GUI on the master (it may fail because of what whe have already seen), or you can use the 'Backup, Archive and Restore' GUI on the client (VM), or edit the registry (at your own risk). 

dear my leader

"You never told us the policy type of the failing backup. This will determine if the master/media server will attempt an agentless or agent-based backup. " my question how to know if the master/media server will attempt an agentless or agent-based backup ??

hello 

in the client you must be turn the netbackup service client up,in order to solve this issue it depends the differents cases
