Excellent point there. I moved our NMC some months ago to an alternate host and stopped the data gathering and it very rarely fails now. The under powered windows backup server I use also benefitted from this move of the NMC to one of our storage nodes. I do notice that when NMC is gathering info from events and reporting data the instability creeps back in. Thus I disabled it. We use DPA and monitor the system closely in other ways which thankfully made the data collection unnecessary for us.

Best practice is to run NMC on a separate machine from your NetWorker server, 
not a client machine either. I run NMC on a small RH Linux virtual machine and 
it is generally rock solid. Besides the issue of TCP/IP ports being in short 
supply, another cause for NMC connectivity problems to look into is network 
connectivity. The only times NMC drops a connection on me is when a network 
issue occurs.

To avoid running out of ports, We do not run our NMC-GST service on our
NW Server, but rather one of the client machines. Our NW server is
Windows, but our NMC server running the GST service is on a Linux
client, so we connect to/through it to manage our NW Server via the NMC
GUI... When we had the GST service running on our NW server, we also
experienced problems such as yours...

Having issues with Networker GUI. Its been dropping very frequently
these days (twice a day). The networker server is a Red hat Linux box,
we run version 7.6.1

Doing a /etc/init.d/gst stop
            /etc/init.d/gst start

would work, but sometimes even that doesn't help. Have to do a
nsr_shutdown and restart services or reboot the box?

Got the following in daemon.raw
nsrmmgd 2 %s 1 0 62 RPC receive operation failed; errno = Connection
reset by peer

Any help would be appreciated.
