Media Manager status code 76

Message: cannot get host name

Explanation: The system call gethostname(3C) failed during an attempt to obtain the name of the local host.

Recommended Action:

  • Examine the command output, debug logs, and system logs for a more detailed message on the error.

    See "Setting Media Manager debug logging to a higher level" in the NetBackup Logging Reference Guide.

  • Obtain the specific system call failure from the debug log and investigate the operating system functionality that is related to the failure. Run the hostname system command to see if the command operates correctly.
