When you did stop & start, did you confirm all NB processes
had ended correctly? (bpps –a)
I have experienced something very similar on a Windows Media/Master
server last week.
Use bprdreq –alive to check if resource processing is
working. I’m guessing it isn’t. In which case you will probably
find you have an orphaned nbdb (bpdbm, i think its called) process. Cant remember
the exact process that was linked to the DB.
-Terminate that outstanding process(es) (kill -9 etc, whatever
works)
-Have your catalogue backup standing by
-Cross your fingers and start NetBackup up
-Dont let the disk system that hosts your NetBackup databases
get full ever again.

Dear Guru,
My

Last full
weekend backup all failed.
When I
checked it today, these the detail problem :
1. Often come up error: intermittent connectivity lost
with the server. Verify services or Daemons are up.
2. 2 service daemons down, which are: nbevtmgr and bmrd
3. When I tried to manually backup the policies, the job
doesn’t show up in the activity monitor.
4. Perform Catalog backup --? ok
5. I tried to reconfigure storage devices à
successfull
6. I’ve tried to restart the services
(/etc/init.d/netbackup stop and then start), and even I restart the robotic and
the server, but those problem still persists.
7. When doing click “storage units”, à
error "cannot connect on Socket status code : 25”
8. When I tried to start up nbevtmgr, at log system à
ep 27 16:30:29 TENVRS kernel: nbevtmgr[5139]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip
00000000f5bebce8 rsp 00000000f5e886b0 error 4
Previous
Week condition
1. Netbackup stop operating caused by Disk full problem
had happened with 100% full at netbackup /usr/openv
2. I’ve manage to remove some log file and get to
93%
3. Found error “EMM database error 196” and
the database cannot be started
4. After I look at /usr/openv/var/global/databases.conf à
the size 0.
5. I put "/usr/openv/db/data/NBDB.db"
-n NBDB at /usr/openv/var/global/databases.conf Base on http://entsupport.symantec.com/docs/304337
6. The backup is back to normal but still there is error
