The fix was a very simple one that had been overlooked by numerous people. I needed to add a client to the host properties and figured since I could not do it through the gui I would use "bpclient", well that did not work either. It gave me the following error: pfexec: Exec format error >From this I Googled the error and it talked about a file inconsistancy between >Linux and Solaris (not my issue), but I did a file read on blclient and it was >empty.

Re: [Veritas-bu] None of the slected hosts could be contacted
Simon, One very handy tool Symantec has recently published is NetBackup Domain Network Analyzer (NB DNA.) Download is: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH125454 It is delployed with 6.5.6, but can be used with 6.5.5. There is an additional patch you have to install with 6.5.5. I think the patch is a binary addition - you don't have to shutdown services to apply the patch. (I didn't anyway.) The tool will give you a very detailed list of any name resolution problems. It will also list any network problems it finds when trying to initiate client connections. I'll be using it at least once a week to figure out what my network and firewall teams are doing to the backups.

Re: [Veritas-bu] None of the slected hosts could be contacted
I have one thought of things that you can look for. I am not sure if it is all still true, but netbackup stores the master host name in multiple places. I do not believe that sysmantec has a tool or doc set that would enable us to know all the settings. And they can be different in different areas. So you might have hostname xyz or xyz.something or xyz.something.com ... in use. There was a feature, if you were using the java gui. If the name used on the gui logon screen did not match exactly the stored name, some functions would not be available. You might check if this is the problem. len -Original Message- From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of fredsharky Sent: Friday, October 08, 2010 10:56 AM To: VERITAS-BU@MAILMAN.ENG.AUBURN.EDU Subject: [Veritas-bu] None of the slected hosts could be contacted OH and by the way we upgraded to 6.5.5 now, did not fix problem.
