I imagine our setup here is somewhat 'typical' for a large environemnt. 100Meg systems feeding 1Gig networks to a L700 tape silo. A few times a week, I have NetBackup fail a backup with an error 4x c

I see this regularly as well and cannot attribute it to anything that's going on network wise. In some cases the backup will not run successfully during the retry either, however, it will run fine th

Yes but here it is on the solaris 2.6 boxes (yes we have a lot more of those than NT) so I think your feeling on that is correct. I imagine our setup here is somewhat 'typical' for a large environemn

We see these as well in Unix environments. I would check the logs on the master/media servers at the time the error occured (/usr/openv/netbackup/logs). It may well be some network tuning is required

Could you give us some hints on what to look for in the logs and what kind of tuning that might be? I too have a UNIX environment and when I use the procedures defined in the Troubleshooting Guide to

I've seen this in the past but have never been able to track the cause. The error I usually receive is a 41. Ken Zufall 330.202.4113 "It's not the most difficult job in the world, but I do have to kn

Sure, but im assuming your master/media/clients are running Solaris here. Increase file descriptor limit on master/media to 1024 in /etc/system. set rlim_fd_max = 1024 set rlim_fd_cur = 1024 Reduce t

I too experience infrequent 4x errors. Usually they happen on the same set of clients. I've found that logging above level 1 increases the amount of occurences. Having said that I'm a newbie to Netba

I tend to compare the logs of a successful backup to a failed backup. It also helps to know the steps Netbackup takes to execute a backup. I havent found a good document for this. When fishing throug

Troubleshooting Guide, Appendix A. Functional Overview. Does a pretty good job of outlining what Netbackup is doing. Other than that, well maybe someone will publish something soon ;-) David Quoting

I've had these when there was a NFS client issue. NetBackup tries to parse a directory, and some NFS server is no longer available, so it hangs. The Error 41 is the Timeout waiting for data to be sen
