Re: [Veritas-bu] Device configuration issue

What platform are you on? I had a similar problem in Windows, and ended
up killing the NetBackup processes to get around this.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Device configuration issue

Greetings,

We're having some problems with device configuration on our media
servers.  We normally run "tpautoconf -a -v" with great success, but now
it seems to think that another device configuration is already in
progress.  We get the message "Another device configuration is already
in progress.".  Additionally, when we try to configure the devices
manually using tpconfig, there is no confirmation message indicating the
device was successfully added.  There is also no error message
indicating failure.  It just silently ignores it.

Has anyone else seen this behavior?  We had this problem a couple weeks
ago, and restarting NetBackup on the master server cured it, however,
I'd like to know more about the problem.

The master server is Solaris 10.  The problem is affecting all media
servers...solaris, hp-ux, and windows.  I checked for the tpac.lock file
on the master, but no joy.
