Re: [Veritas-bu] status code 58.
What is wrong with using /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bptestnetconn or /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bptestbpcd ?

When troubleshooting status 58 errors on a NetBackup client, the first thing to test is to whether or not you can access the client from the client Host Properties from the master server. If that works the same ports are involved when backing up the client as to when you access the client host properties. Connecting to the client host properties from the master server would prove the master server can access the client without any problems. So if using a storage unit on the master server you should be able to backup the client without getting the status 58 error. i am trying to create this script only for unix clients but the problem ii am not able to frame the logic and stuck how to startplease help.

Re: [Veritas-bu] status code 58.
Hey Pawan I would start with basic network stuff, like is name resloving working between the machines (ping, hosts file, nslookup) If thats looks ok I would continue with bptestbcpd if you are asking about how get the result, $? contains the last exitcode in many shells I am thinking something grep client /etc/hosts if [ $? 0 ];then echo client not in /etc/hosts fi nslookup client if [ $? 0 ];then echo client not in DNS fi bptestbcpd -client client -debug Hope this can get you started Regards Michael 2014-02-12 pawan ramnani pawan.ramnan...@gmail.com: hey guys..i am currently working on shell script that resolves status code 58 in netbackuptool .this error is actually coz when server cannot communicate to the client so i am trying to write a shell script to do this automatically instead of series of steps manually..the troubleshooting are as follows.

[Veritas-bu] netbackup 7.1 convert catalog to 7.5
Hi Jerald, The Upgrade to NetBackup 7.5 moves the header file of a netbackup catalog image into the EMM and replaces it with a .lck file . 7.5 Upgrade, after the binary upgrade is a 2 step process. Phase 1 starts automatically when the first instance of the nbstserv process runs To start phase 2 of the image metadata migration, run the following clean-up command and wait for the image clean-up job to complete: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpimage -cleanup -allclients Now for the catalog migration and the upgrade process to complete successfully requires all the image database files to be accessible to NetBackup when the image cleanup job runs. I believe this was not the case when NetBackup was upgraded as the epoch directory was not mounted. So the upgrade itself has still not completed. You are required to mount the epoch directory and run bpimage -cleanup -allclients. The image clean-up job should complete with a status of zero. This should complete the 7.5 upgrade and the migration of catalog header into EMM. /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbemmcmd -listsettings -brief -machinename masterservername | grep -i LIST_FS_IMAGE_HEADERS If the result shows LIST_FS_IMAGE_HEADERS = 0, phase 2 has completed. If the above value is still 1 then open a case with Symantec asap.
