Device management status code 5

Message: Error in Sending Daemon Message

Explanation: ltid made an attempt to send an internal process communications message to a robotic daemon or process by using an already existing internal message queue. (ltid is the Media Manager device daemon on UNIX and Linux and the NetBackup Device Manager service on Windows.) An error was encountered in the message communications. The error probably indicates a lack of system resources for message queues.

Recommended Action:

  • Examine 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.

  • On UNIX and Linux servers, gather output from the ipcs -a command to see what resources are currently in use. Investigate whether the robotic daemon or process on the local device host is tied up in communications with devices or other components.
