I haven't had issues with particular status codes on 64-bit OS  so I
cannot speak to that issue.
 
However,   I did go round and round figuring out what was supported,
and when  support for Win 64-bit was added. 
 
AMD64 and EM64T support was added at 5.1 MP4  and the 64-bit client is
buried somewhere on the website for download. Once I was at that level,
I haven't had any issues with backups on our 64-bit OS systems.    Our
64-bit OS's are all W2K3,  running on AMD64 hardware.
 
I always keep a recent compatibility chart handy near my desk...

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Staus code 42


I am trying to backup a Windows 2003, 64bit OS server(on a Dell
Poweredge 1855) and it's failing with Status code 42. This is the error
message I see in the event Viewer on the client.
 
Faulting application bpbkar32.exe, version 5.1.0.135, faulting module
vssapi.dll, version 5.2.3790.1830, fault address 0x00020030.
 
The application, C:\Program Files
(x86)\VERITAS\NetBackup\bin\bpbkar32.exe, generated an application error
The error occurred on 06/09/2006 @ 09:46:01.362 The exception generated
was c0000005 at address 75270030 (vssapi!CVssWriter::SetWriterFailure) 
 
I have Netbackup Enterprise Server 5.1 on a Solaris master/media server.
 
Anyone seen this error message ?  Is a 64bit windows client supported
under a 5.1 NBU ?
 
TIA
 
-Shyam
