can't register linux boot server to windows master

[Tauhid]

Dear All,

Hope fine.

We have windows 2008 64 bit master & media server with netbackup 7.7.1.

I installed netbackup 7.7.1 client at linux mechine(Redhat 6.2) and file system backup is running smoothly.

Now I want to make this linux server as a boot server

But when I issue command

#./bmrsetupboot -register

#

it returns nothing. I check the boot server option of master server. But linux machine doesn't registered at boot server.

Another 

After issuing commnd #./bmrsrtadm

It also doesn't show any option to create srt.

Could you please give me a solution?

Have you configured BMR on the master with bmrsetupmaster?
Or by using the BMR configuration wizard in the GUI?

Extract from BMR Admin Guide:

On the Windows BMR master server, select Programs > Symantec NetBackup
> Bare Metal Restore -- Master Server Setup from the Start menu.

Thanks Marianne.

Yes, Master server setup has been done.

bmrd process not run at linux client machine. Also after issuing "./bmrsetupboot -register" and echo $?, it sowws 252 code.

Is the  the 'bmrd' daemon running on master?

  You can verify that the BMRDB database and service is operational by running
 
 bmrs -o list -res BootServer

bmrs -o query -res database -table BootServer
 
For Unix/Linux, the Boot Server OS release/maintenance level must be as high or higher than the clients being supported.
