Veritas NetBackup™ Status Codes Reference Guide

Examine the NetBackup Problems and All Log Entries reports.

Create bprd and bpdbm debug log directories and retry the operation. Check the resulting logs to see the system error message that resulted from the attempt.

If another process has the port, use other system commands to determine the process. Based on this research, either change the port number in your services file or map or terminate the process that acquired the port.

On UNIX, another possible cause for this error is the use of the kill command to terminate bprd or bpdbm. To stop bpdbm, use the /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpdbm -terminate command. Use of the kill command to stop these processes can leave them unable to bind to their assigned ports the next time they are started.

To identify a bprd or a bpdbm problem, look for lines similar to the following in the debug log for the respective process:

<16> getsockbound: bind() failed, Address already in use (114)
<32> listen_loop: cannot get bound socket. errno = 114
<4> terminate: termination begun...error code = 146

Similar entries can appear in the reports.

If the problem persists longer than 10 minutes, it may be necessary to restart the server.
