NetBackup™ Release Notes

NetBackup services may not start automatically after BMR restore on a Linux client

NetBackup services may not start automatically after a Bare Metal Restore (BMR) restore operation is performed on the Linux client.

The NetBackup services may run for a while after a BMR restore operation, and the BMR post-restore scripts may complete successfully. Later, however, NetBackup services may stop.

This issue happens only if a service user is different than the root user that is defined on the NetBackup Linux client.

Workaround:

Start the NetBackup services manually on the Linux client. To start the services, run the following command:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bp.start_all
