We’re seeing the following when attempting a restore
of an RMAN backup:

On the NetBackup master itself I never see any sign that the
restore was attempted. The above message is from the client from
which the restore is being attempted. Also we’ve found that
from that client we can’t list the backups but from the Production client
from which they were originally backed up we can list them.
The client backed up and the atlternate one on which we’re
attempting the restore are both RHEL5 and the master is RHEL6. All
3 are running NBU 7.1.
We had previously done this when the clients were 6.5.4 and
the master was an HP-UX server running 6.5.4. We did not migrate to
the new master but rather installed it from scratch then updated the clients to
7.1 and pointed them at the new master. We have had many successful
backups of the first client since the move and update of clients.
Initially the DBA had not modified his script to use the new
master but he is still having issues even though he has now done the
modification.
I ran a tcpdump while he attempted a restore and saw that
connections are being made from the alternate client to the master but nothing
is ever going to the master’s logs nor is it ever actually creating a
restore job in the Activity Monitor.
Has anyone seen this and if so how did you resolve it?
Is there something different about RMAN in 7.1 as compared
to 6.5.4?
