Media Manager status code 46

Message: unexpected data from robotic software daemon

Explanation: Message communications (handshaking) between a process and a robotic software daemon or process failed.

Recommended Action:

  • Verify that the correct version of software is running on all servers.

  • 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.

  • Retry the operation and examine the logs.

  • Ensure that no embedded whitespaces exist in the fields that do not allow embedded whitespace.

  • Check the system log on the robot control host for the errors that the robotic software logged.
