It’s hit or miss on them…They are not new w/ regards to ESX, probably about 6 months old.

Does this happen every time you run a  backup? Do they run awhile before erroring out?
 We get 41's occaisionally, but a re-runs usually go OK.  It is hard to say not knowing how
your network is configured.

Were these recently added to ESX.?  Netbackup is very fussy about TCP/IP connections
We recently had issues backing up through a firewall, I ended up doing a regristry hack
to alllow more TCP retransmissions.  .

This can be a tough one.  Probably best to open a case with Symantec.

They are both W2K3 and are both VMs, so the local NICs settings are controlled by the ESX host.  The NIC in that host is 1GB / Full.  If it indeed was a network issue I would suspect that every VM that is using the NIC would be have the same issue.  Only two out of about 200 are having this issue.
 
Thanks

What OS is on your clients.  This is usually a network problem.
Check all your NIC settings.  Be sure they are all 100 full no auto neg, if running 100MB, it Gig set to auto.

Just a place to start.

Running NBU 6.0 MP4, and I have two clients where I am getting a status code of 41 on.  Both clients are running W2K3 and for the life of me I can not figure out what is wrong…any ideas
