I recently started getting multiple Status 58s when ever a
server gets rebooted. I’m in a Windows environment. I have an open ticket
because when a client gets rebooted, the client service doesn’t always
restart. Most of the time it doesn’t restart. There’s nothing in the event
log that shows it even tries to restart. One entry in the forum I found said
that they saw this behavior when tsshutdn was used to reboot a server. But I
had three incidents Monday night. One was tsshutdn, one server blue screened
and rebooted itself, the 3rd was a VMWare client and the VMWare
console was used to reboot the server. In all three instances, the client did
not restart and all of the jobs ended with Status 58. I manually restarted the
client and everything was fine after that.
Long story short, make sure the client service is running. I’m
also on 6.5.

I have inherited a NBU environment (Windows 2003 Server SP2) with one master
server, 3 media servers which connect to an SL8500 (development backups), and 3
media servers which connect to a StorageTek L180 (production backups).
I'm receiving multiple status code 58 (can't connect to client) on my
development jobs even though I'm running the bpclntcmd –hn command to obtain
the correct hostname. Any ideas?
It likely means that somebody doesn't have the server list set correctly on the
client. Do the following:
bpgetconfig -M <clientname>
and search for the SERVER entries. They must have the master server and
all of the media servers in there (at least the media servers that the client
needs).
To push out a new server list, put all of the servers in a file (including the
"SERVER =" piece) and do a
bpsetconfig -h <clientname> <serverfile>
This all works from a Unix master - translate it to Windows if required.
