Two possible causes.

The client is not set up to allow the omniback server to do the backup. Connection is reset due to a lack of configuration or permission.

Inadequate shared memory on the omniback server.

ipcs command to display.

A) FQDN Name resolution, 'nslookup client/ip'

B) Omniback services / daemons not running on the client.

C) Check the version of the client software in the OB GUI. Redistribute the OB agents to the client.

connection reset by peer means that the TCP connection was established, then "reset" by the remote - that is, it sent a RST segment back to us.

if the initial connection request were rejected because there was nothing configured to listen on the port number the error would have been ECONNREFUSED or errno 239.

so, perhaps something with inetd.sec - when that disallows a connection, the connection is initially established and then aborted.

if the remote application simply went away, i would initially think that there would be a connection close notification, rather than an abort - of course if the local app ignores that and then tries to send something, that would elicit a RST and generate an errno 232 - connectoin reset by peer.

I'm seeing this exact same error on a client.

Is there a document that explains exactly what each error code actually means ?

Thanks

[61:3003] Lost connection to VBDA named ""

on host hpsvc ----> says,

hostname is not resolved. It is to good to check with nslookup / nsquery with /etc/nsswitch.conf file hosts: entry there as,

nsquery hosts "hostname / ip" "hosts: entry on /etc/nsswitch.conf"

example:

nsquery hosts "test.test.com" "files dns"

Ipc subsystem reports: "IPC Read Error --> Inter process communication is failed for read operation. So that try to restart setup by server / client

System error: [232] Connection reset by peer --> says

whenever client is running and server gets reset then client side will get these error's.

Stop the client's and then reset the server.

You can view all error message information's in

/usr/include/sys/errno.h

You can use perror( ), strerror( ), errno, sys_errlist, sys_nerr(3C) - system error messages commands to get error messages for error number informations.
