Also, there is a big difference between a manual backup and
one that is resubmitted. If you right click on the failed job and say
resubmit, it will get another status 196. You need to manually submit from
the policy.
I
am getting error "backup of client XXX exited with status 196 (client backup
was not attempted because backup window closed)". We are using NetBackup 6.0.
This error has come for the first time for all backup clients and none of the
clients were backed-up. Request forum members to provide their valuable
solution.
What could be the reason for the above error? I am a beginner
as far as NatBackup is concerned and any inputs are welcome. I read it
somewhere that manual backup can be performed under these circumstances, but
even that is failing with same error.
There are many reasons for this. If you don't have enough tape
drives, jobs will back up behind them, and eventually your backup window will
close before the jobs get to run. You could have too few jobs per client
or per storage unit. You could have multiplexing off.
The activity monitor in 6.0 will show the jobs with the status 196.
Look at the jobs and the parents of those jobs and it will tell you what it's
waiting for.
You didn't say what maintenance pak you were running - you should be at
least at MP4 and preferably MP5.
You also said that NONE of you jobs ran. In this case, since nothing
is running anyway, it won't hurt to reboot your master server. Once
NetBackup is back up, manually submit one job to see if it starts to run.
