NetBackup status code: 263

Message: session ID assignment failed

Explanation: The unique identifier to be assigned to the Vault session is corrupt.

Recommended Action: Verify that the session ID that is stored in the session.last file is valid.

UNIX and Linux:

/usr/openv/netbackup/vault/sessions/vault_name/session.last

Windows:

install_path\NetBackup\vault\sessions\vault_name\session.last

Make sure that the file system is not full and that no one has inadvertently edited the session.last file. To correct the problem, store the highest session ID that was assigned to a session for this Vault in the session.last file. If the problem persists, contact customer support and send the appropriate logs.
