We traced the problem to an Intel PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Adapter for the new Dell PowerEdge 2950 running Windows 2003. The driver contained a feature called Receive Side Scaling that disrupts network communications under certain circumstances. When we disable this feature, NetBackup was able to connect to the Master server.

Our entire backup goes thru a private network and I am using host file only. I will try the IP to see if that will work for me.

Are you using DNS for name service resolution? My back network is private, and I am only using hosts files. I was able to get around the problem by using the Client's IP, instead of clinet name for the Client Name in my policy. No reason why this should work, but it works for me.

When I tried to start a backup from the Windows client, I am getting a status code of 23. I have looked at network and everything looks good. There is a case opened with Veritas and they have looked at it for the last 3 days but no solution at this time. I know that in order for NetBackup to support R2, I need to be on NetBackup 5.1 MP4 or higher. I have uninstalled and reinstalled NetBackup client, rebooted the server and the problem is still there. Has anyone seen this problem? Is anyone backing up Windows 2003 R2 with NetBackup 5.1 using a Solaris 9 Master Server? Thanks!
