    Thanks for sending me the error message Natwar ("The system cannot find the file specified").

    In this case, NSS is attempting to contact the master server using a CLI command.  CLI commands sit in the command directories of the master server.  By default, NSS will assume the following default parent paths to these directories:

    Windows: C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackup
    Unix:  /usr/openv/netbackup

    However, sometimes during the installation of NetBackup, an alternative to the above defaults is used.  In these cases, the paths defined in the Backup Server config within NSS must be updated to use alternative directories.  Click 'Show Advanced Settings' at the top of the Backup Server config page and update the 'NetBackup Folder' to the correct value.

    You may also have to update the 'NetBackup Temporary Folder' setting.

    Please let us know if this resolves your issue.
