Justin,

I have xinetd installed and running. But I dont find the bpcd fine under xinetd directory.I did not install the client as standalone. How could this happen? And /sbin/chkconfig --list | grep bpcd
did not return anything (blank output). Thanks for your response..

Hello All,

I recently installed Netbackup Client S/W on RHEL 5.4. The installation
completed successfully. But I'm unable to access the client properties from
my Windows 2003 master server. On the client telnet localhost bpcd worked.
But when tried from server it failed.

I also tried ps aux | grep bpcd

and I got

root      2130  0.0  0.1 108192  2292 ?        S    18:17   0:00
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd -standalone
root      2538  0.0  0.0  61200   724 pts/1    R+   18:31   0:00 grep bpcd

Why is bpcd running in standalone mode? And I dont find any file named bpcd
under xinetd.d directory!! Help please!!!

Run:

# netstat -natpul|grep 13782

Is xinetd.d installed and running?
How did you install the client?

If xinetd is not installed, it may try /etc/inetd.conf, if neither are
installed or available, it probably will start it as standalone.

Here is the bpcd on a client:

$ cat bpcd
# Service bpcd for NetBackup
service bpcd
{
       socket_type             = stream
       protocol                = tcp
       wait                    = no
       user                    = root
       server                  = /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpcd
       disable                 = no
}


Run: /sbin/chkconfig --list | grep bpcd
       bpcd:           on

Make sure its on, if its not, enable it and restart xinetd, you will need
to kill off bpcd or cycle services too probably.

Justin.
