Replacing Windows Media Servers with Linux Media Servers
Good Afternoon. I have a customer planning to replace his existing Windows Media Servers with new RHEL servers, and I'm wondering if that will cause issues when trying to use the new Media Server to restore older images. We suggested they keep the windows media servers around for restores, but they are not amenable to that. Is there a way that I can re-assign all primary image ownership from 1 Media Server to another? They are on Netbackup v8 right now but will be upgrading to v9 as a first step. Thank you
Backup failed with error code 71 (EXIT STATUS 71: none of the files in the file list exist). The server rebooted automatically on 28th march and after that the backups are failing.
Problem description : Backup failed with error code 71 (EXIT STATUS 71: none of the files in the file list exist). The server rebooted automatically on 28 th march and after that the backups are failing. The network drives are Netapp storage Shares and it is mapped to the client COLLECTIONSRV. The drives are accessible from OS using the user “USER1”. The netbackup client service is having the logon credentials of user “USER1”. In the policy the “ Backup Network drive” option is selected. The path is also specified properly. Also tried with the mapped drive letter “Y:\”. But the backups are failing with the same error code. The server has been rebooted manually but still the same issue.

Ignoring Stub Files
Can we filter our Backup Policy based on file size. Regardless of whether or not it is a stub file. Can we backup files ONLY greater than 8k? or by file creation date. Currently we have a process that we purchased (Rainfinity from EMC) that takes images once a month and stores the image on lower cost file system and leaves a stub file that is 8k in size. When I run a full backup the policy sees the 8k and backs up the file. Which is great but the stub file is 8k the actual file is larger and has to be retrieve from the lower cost disk which is very slow so my 1TB area takes days to backup to tape because of the slow retrieval speed. Yes EMC can replicate the data to another area but because of the cost this is not an option at this time

full backup failed with error code 26
Hi all Thanks in advance for reading this post. any tips\ideas\advices are highly appreciated environment setting - NBU 7.7.2 on Windows 2012 R2 - 1x master server which also act as media server - all clients are VMware, communicated via Virtual Center, snapshot backup using LAN @ NBD - all backups goes to disk - daily @ incremental backup from Monday to Friday - weekly\monthly\yearly @ full on Saturday - no scheduled backup on Sunday issue - no issue with daily backup - 50% of full backup will failed with EXIT STATUS 26 (client/server handshaking failed) - restart of the jobs in stages will eventually completed based on reading, error 26 related to network or communication error. when the issue occured, i would test the network (bpclntcmd) and it turned out ok. later on, restart of the jobs also turn out ok. if too many failure, i have to restart it in stages, else it will resulted the same; error code 26. it suggest congestion of bottleneck somewhere but i have no clear path to look to in worst case, jobs will stuck & bpup/bpdown has to be done. a case logged to Symantec & he suspected issue with network sockets which to me not very clear or have a good understanding on it. hopefully good folks out there can help me with it. Symantec advice to clear the network socket connections which i have to request from NW team to do it but no logs/eviden shared it was done. totally dependent on NW team. And reboot the server which i confirmed rebooted based on server uptime. And still the issue keep on occuring and ruined my lovely weekend. Thanks again in advance for reading this post. any tips\ideas\advices are highly appreciated
