I have tried with the command pbbackup.but did not work.Please advice .Thanks

Navin,

You could try putting a SERVER = {client name} in the bp.conf file on the master server, restarting the NetBackup daemons on the master server and running your backup from the client again as follows:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpbackup -i -c {policy name} -s {schedule name} -h {client name} -S {master server}

If this does not work, you might have to leave your HP-UX host set as a client and install the media server binaries on your client. You can do this without having to licence any of the media server products as you will not be using them.

Cheers,

Joseph

We use $veritas_path/bpbackup -w -c $CLASS -s $SCHED -f $FILE_LIST_1

You can fill in the blanks w/ the variables. From the previous reply you can add the client option.

Good luck.

I think you should configure your server to allow clients to run the backups, even withthis entry in the bp.conf file.

Goodluck
