Master or media server?  OS? 

Master or media server?  OS?  NBU version?

What processes are currently running? Please post output of 'bpps -x' from cmd on master.

Could be due to load

Hi Nitesh,

I have faced this error quite a few time in my environment and most;ly it happens when the load is more on the master or the media server.

running the command nbrbutil -resetMediaServer <mediaserver name> on the affected media server fixes the problem for me.The next step i do if the command doesnt fix the problem is recycle netbackup services on the affected media server.But most of the time nbrbutil will do the trick.

You might want to try the nbrbutil command.The command Resets all nbrb EMM and MDS allocations related to ltid on the media server. Your backup on that media server might be affected though.

If the command works for you.Please look at your backup scheduling and consider load balancing.

 

 

Thanks
Kisad

Hi

Thanx Kisad

We were getting the same error, we tried the solution provided by Kisad, stopped NBU processes on media server and then rest the media server by nbrbutil command

nbrbutil -resetMediaServer media_server_name

and again started the netbackup, it resolved the issue and now everything is working fine.

Please share your experience also.

worth reviewing the schedules

Hi champ35,

From my experience I have seen this kind of situation occuring when large number of backups are running in the environment.In other words it would be worthwhile to review you backup policy schedules and do a load balancing.Hope it helps.

Wish you a Happy and Prosperous New year.

Thanks
Kisad
