Media Manager status code 126
Explanation: A caller requesting services from vmd is either not authenticated or not authorized, or a problem is encountered when two systems attempt to authenticate one another.
Recommended Action:
See the NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide for information on vmd security.
vmd security is based on NetBackup authentication or authorization and the media server entries defined in
bp.conf/Host Properties
on the master server for the specific NBU domain.Examine the debug log files for a more detailed message on the authentication or the authorization problem.
See "Setting Media Manager debug logging to a higher level" in the NetBackup Logging Reference Guide.
Correct the vmd security configuration by modifying the authentication configuration.
Note:
Ensure that both the source and the destination machines are within a single NBU domain.
If an authentication problem (rather than a configuration issue) is suspected, do the following:
Check the
methods_allow.txt
files on the systems that have problems to ensure that authentication is enabled. The files are in the following locations:On Windows:
install_path\NetBackup\var\auth
On UNIX and Linux:
/usr/openv/var/auth
On the systems that have the authentication problem, remove the remote host that is not authenticated from the
methods_allow.txt
file.For example, if Host A and Host B have the problem, remove Host A from the file on Host B, and vice versa.
Retry the operation. If the problem still exists, the connection problems are not related to authentication.
Add back the removed hosts and retry the operation.
