cannot retrieve NDMP credentials

When I have attempted to do a restore from our system I get the above message cannot retrieve NDMP credentials.  The backups have been successfully run but I cannot do a restore.  Any suggestions would be welcome.  I am running NetBackup 6.0MP5 on a Windows 2003 server.

Check how is your authentication and verify that the drives you are trying to use for the restore are NDMP
 
List Attributes
set_ndmp_attr -list
 
Verify access
set_ndmp_attr -verify <NDMP server>
 
Check deamons are up
vmps
 
Authenticate Access
set_ndmp_attr -auth filer root
 
 
hope this helps

did you every get a answer that helped with this problem?

 

I am using NetBackup 6.5.3 running on a W2K3 Enterprise system connected to a Dell ML6010 Tape robot. We are using it to backup a NETAPP FAS270 using NDMP. I, like you, was able to get a successful backup but have not been able to restore a file and I get this error:

 

12/29/2008 1:32:14 PM - restoring image Netappfiler_1229654369
12/29/2008 1:32:14 PM - Error bpbrm(pid=3800) cannot retrieve NDMP credentials for host windows_server, error = 254

12/29/2008 1:48:15 PM - end Restore; elapsed time: 00:16:02
the restore failed to recover the requested files(5)

 

Any suggestions?
