NBU client configuration
Updated: 23 May 2010 | 3 comments
I have a VMware based Windows client that stopped communication with the master. The servers passed all the usual comm. tests. I beleve I can resolve the problem by going to Client Settings\Universal Settings\Use Specified Network Interface. However, since the master cannot communicate with the client, I cannot do this.
Does anyone kown where the IP adderss is placed so that i could enter it manyally?
Thanks,

VMWare Client
What is the status code when you try to connect? What does the C:\Program Files\VERITAS\Netbackup\logs\bpcd\<date>.log file show when you try to connect? What happens on the master server side when you run the bpclntcmd -hn <client hostname> Does the right IP address come back?
If using VCB backups, could this client be backed up via VCB or is it running MS-SQL or equivalent?

On Windows the default
On Windows the default location for hosts file is
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc
Be careful if you edit hosts file with Notepad that it does not add .txt extension.
If you have a Unix master server, it's /etc/hosts.
Supporting Storage Foundation and VCS on Unix and Windows as well as NetBackup on Unix and Windows.
Handy NBU links
start -> run-> drivers and
start -> run-> drivers and enter and go to etc directory you will find the /etc/hosts
between try bpclntcmd command ( whole lot of options are there)
