I knew that it was something so simple, I completely over looked it. I
was using a schedule in my test policies that was over-riding the policy
storage unit. It was pointing to a unit that I'd dropped in my testing,
and as I'd changed the policy, I should have double-checked the schedule.
Ultimately, bouncing the netbackup daemons was the fix to my original
problem. Turns out the new problem that I had created with the schedule,
gave the same symptoms.
Special thanks to David Chapa for all of the suggestions.

storage unit stay in queued state
09:56 PM
I'm configuring a disk storage unit on my netbackup server. When I kick
off the saves configured to use this storage unit, the job just sits in a
"queued" state.
I've checked everything that I can think of, and support has even gone over
this. It seems like this should be fairly straight forward. I configured
the storage as on-demand only and set up a new policy, using existing
clients that I know work fine when backing up to tape.
Anybody else run into this type of problem when configuring local disk as a
storage unit? Any suggestions?
Basics:
Netbackup 4.5, Vol Mgr 3.5, Powerpath 3.0.3, Solaris 2.6 master, storage
connected via SAN over Emulex fibre.
Thanks,
-Mike
