What happens when you run bptestbpcd -client <anotherclient>  - does that work?

What does the bpcd log on the clientserver show? Is there an incoming connection being established before it breaks?

[Mark_Solutions · Accepted solution]

Sounds like about enough free disk space to connect but may struggle to do a backup?

Status 23 is socket read failed so you need to do the usual troubleshooting steps:

1. check NetBackup processes are running on the client - re-start if in doubt

2. ping from Master / Media to client and vice-versa to make sure resolutions is correct (short netbios and FQDN being resolvable

3. Add entries (again short and FQDN) to hosts files - client in Master and Media's, Matser and Media to Clients

4. Check for any firewalls

5. Create bpcd logs folder on the client to see what is being reported

6. run bpclntcmd -clear_host_cache on Master, Media and Client to force a fresh name and IP address lookup

Hope this helps

Bptestbpcd shows us what happens on the server. We now need to see what happens on the client. For this, we need client's bpcd log file. If bpcd folder does not exist in netbackup/logs, create it and run bptestbpcd again. Rename the log file in bpcd folder to bpcd.txt and post as File attachment.

[rookie11]

from master n client side bpclntcmd -hn and bpclntcmd -ip both output works fine.

created bpcd folder on client but logs not getting generated in it.

[Mark_Solutions]

Once you have created the bpced folder on the client try connecting to it again fromn the Master

If  it communicates then the bpcd log will be created so that we can see what is going on

[rookie11]

already tried connecting it but logs not getting generated on client server in bpcd dir.

[Mark_Solutions]

In that case either the client is not running or the Master is not connecting to that client

try a bpclntcmd -sv from the client to see what it logs

[rookie11]

blank , it just moves to next prompt

[Mark_Solutions]

what does a bpps -a show on that client? (are you logged in as root?)

[rookie11]

sudo ./bpps -a

OK - what does its bp.conf look like?
