Re: [Veritas-bu] Strange behaviour

Haven’t started using 7.x yet but I’ve always seen the following in HP-UX and Linux servers after the install:

bprd 13720/tcp bprd

bpdbm 13721/tcp bpdbm

bpcd 13782/tcp bpcd

bpjava-msvc 13722/tcp bpjava-msvc

bpjobd 13723/tcp bpjobd

vnetd 13724/tcp vnetd

Since NetBackup puts things under the control of inetd or xinetd (depending on which is present on your server) your issue may specifically be because the port is not in /etc/services. I know that xinetd on Linux won’t listen on ports that are not defined in /etc/services so it may be the same on Solaris.

Hi All,

As anyone seen a case where the backups work but bpgetconfig and bptestbpcd fail? It is driving me up the wall. L

Also I cannot seem to find on which port vnetd or bpcd are configured. This is Solaris 10 and NetBackup 7.0.1. Usually I look in /etc/services, but there’s nothing there! L
