I'm not sure what the "core" is, but if you are backing up
the disk files or data that resides on the master / host then you have to
specify that host name in the policy. If you want data on the virtual
disks (not the virtual disks themselves) then you have to install the NBU client
on the virtual machine and use that host name.
Think of backing up virtual machines like backing up
cluster resources. If you want a resource the cluster (virtual machine)
has use the cluster (virtual machine) name. If you want the node (host /
master) info then use that hostname. As usual, make sure all these names
and IPs are in DNS, both forward and reverse.

All,
Netbackup 5.1MP6
Ok, I am going to try and not sound too stupid about
this. I am new to backing up VMWARE and a little confused.
We have a Windows 2003 , running VMWARE Workstation
5. Well, we loaded NetBackup client on the 2 VMWARE clients, also running
Windows 2003, and they both backed up successfully.
We loaded the NetBackup client on the core area of
the server and keep getting a status code 58, for the first try and then a
status code 24 for the second try. I was told, as long as I am not backing
up the dsk files, I should be able to do a normal backup of the core
area.
I have done all the normal troubleshooting for 58
& 24 status codes but nothing seems to work.
I can ping the master server from the core area and I
can also do a traceroute.
Anybody have any idea what I am missing?
