Hi Jeff, I've just started using dnsmasq on Red Hat Linux which acts as a dns forwarder but allows me to override certain IP addresses. It's easy to configure and will get around this problem. Other than that is it out of the question to use a slightly different name for client interface that

Have you tried running bptestbpcd -client client name -verbose -debug from the media server? What are the results? Does bpgetconfig -M client name work? Regards,   Patrick Whelan VERITAS Certified NetBackup Support Engineer for UNIX. VERITAS Certified NetBackup Support Engineer for Windows.

There appear to be differences in where fully qualified domain names need to be used. We have moved most of our environment to 7.1 but do have a few outstanding issues: Can't backup SQL 2000 on MS 2000 (not supported - we put the NBU 6.5.4 client on this server since there isn't a 7.1 version.

Why would you do that?! Are you trying to see how many errors you can cause by using non-sense combinations? Either ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES and exclude C: \ or specify D: only in the file section. You are including the D:\ drive which should be included when you said ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES. Regards,

NetBackup was locked up and certain parts of the Linux OS weren't working. (e.g. I couldn't run ps -ef and get full output - it would hang). If I ran cat /proc/stat I would see process_blocked was showing 5 or higher whereas without these big things running it is typically at 0 or 1. At

Hi, Please disregard, the actual example is: Exclude Lists: C:\ D:\ Include Lists:\ D:\Mydata Where mydata is the only path we want to backup and nothing else on D:\ (potentially TB of live DB, where, we only want the dumps, for example). Justin. On Fri, 29 Apr 2011, Chapman, Scott wrote:

Do you have Windows Master Server? We ran upgrade on a standalone Windows Master Server and it went well. However, hot catalog backup failed with status code 2 on Windows Master. Had to download n install patch from Symantec's website which replaced bpbrm.exe and that solved the problem.
