I currently have a NBU master server on RHEL 5 with a Windows 2003 media server. I can't use hot catalog backup for reasons I won't go into here, so I have to use offline catalog backup. I've used the Catalog backup wizard to set this up and chosen ...

I'm running a HP-UX master/media server running NBU 6.5.4. As part of a migration process I want to have a separate media server, this is a W2K3 box also running NBU 6.5.4. I have a number of virtual libraries/drives on a VTL and also a physical libr...

I have a new install of VBR 6.6.0 and I can't seem to get a NetBackup agent module to collect data from my master server. Has anyone encountered similar issues? Setup is as below: Server A is the VBR Server (W2K3) Server B is a NBU 6.5.4 media server...

Thanks Marianne and RameshG. The issue is that I have to nominate the media server for the offline catalog backup to tape, because of that the client named in the Catalog Backup backup job is the media server, not the master server. I'll play around ...

Unfortunately that's a little more complicated too as the restore is to a NetApp filer NDMP host. The tapes are owned by the filer in question and the drives connected to the filer have the master/media server as their device host. I've now changed t...

I'd done a bp.kill_all followed by a bp.start_all but just to be safe I just ran the bprdreq -rereadconfig as well. I'm hitting the same issue. I also just changed the storage unit used by the policy for this backup/restore to specifically use the ma...

Issue resolved! Looks like it was me being a dumbass, when I was in the Agent => NetBackup Module screen it didn't occur to me to check the boxes for each kind of data required. I assumed they were all collected by default....
