I'm running Netbackup 7.6.0.1 on oracle enterprise linux 5.8.
there is 1x Master/Media server, and 2 Media servers with multiple nics. I gave each interface it's own name. (according to this technote http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH54733). The three servers can see each other on all the interfaces.
master and media servers bp.conf
SERVER=master
SERVER=media1
SERVER=media2
SERVER=master-backup
SERVER=media1-backup
SERVER=media2-backup
SERVER=master-backup2
SERVER=media1-backup2
SERVER=media2-backup2
I have a client that is on the non-backup network, it's bp.conf looks as follow (it cannot access the other networks)
SERVER=master
SERVER=media1
SERVER=media2
CLIENT=clientx
The restores fail , every time.
I checked the logs and it's looking for media2-backup2 instead of media2 (vxlogview -o 143 -X "jobid=1234") (it cannot connect to this server on that network interface)

I updated the bp.conf on the master and media servers with:
FORCE_RESTORE_MEDIA_SERVER = media2-backup2 master
FORCE_RESTORE_MEDIA_SERVER = media2-backup1 master
and reread the config with :
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bprdreq -rereadconfig
but the backups still fail with the same error. I stopped netbackup on the media2-backup2 server, and then it tries to use media1-backup2. It should be using either master / media1 / media2.
When I run nbemmcmd listshosts I get this output
nbemmcmd -listhosts
NBEMMCMD, Version: 7.6.0.1
The following hosts were found:
server master
master master
media media1
media media2
Command completed successfully.
Should I add the other interface names as aliases?
what else am I missing?
