We are trying to upgrade our NBU hardware and OS and are running into some issues that seem related to doing a cold catalog recovery and name resolution.
Current setup: Windows 2003 x86 SP2 NBU 6.5.6 New setup: Windows 2008 x64 SP2 NBU 6.5.6 Current server and new server are configured with the same name and ip address. ISSUE: We can do a cold catalog backup and restore just fine but have a serious issue in the end. After both successes if we open the Activity Monitor we get an error - "Not connected, check if services are up." All service are up. bpjobsd log shows <2> job_connect: Can't connect automatically to client pbcobk01 status = 25 err = 10061 <2> job_connect: Can't connect to client pbcobk01 <16> main: Can't connect to pbcobk01 (46) We did a complete system rebuild, installed NBU 6.5.6, and configured to write to disk. Test backup ran and Activity Monitor worked fine. Did the catalog recovery and the issue came back. I did some bpclntcmd tests and they all come back with the correct name but the IP shows as 127.0.0.1. I added the hostname and real IP to the hosts file with no luck. I tried the following tests: bpclntcmd -pn = correct short name with 127.0.0.1 bpclntcmd -self = correct short name with 127.0.0.1 bpclntcmd -hn pbcobk01 = correct short name with 127.0.0.1 bpclntcmd -ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = correct host and xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx for ip address If I do these test on the current server they come back with the actual IP of the system.
