Message: failed trying to exec a command

Explanation: A command was not run. This error can occur because the permissions of the command do not allow it to be run. Or it occurs due to a lack of system resources such as memory and swap space.

Recommended Action: Do the following, as appropriate:

  • Check the NetBackup All Log Entries report for clues on where and why the failure occurred.

  • Check the permissions on the command to be run.

  • For detailed troubleshooting information, create a debug log directory for the process that returned this status code. Then retry the operation and check the resulting debug log.
