Robot Error status code 10

Message: Fork failure occurred

Explanation: A robotic daemon or process cannot create a child process due to a system error. This error is probably intermittent, based on the availability of resources on the system (only applies to UNIX and Linux servers).

Recommended Action:

  • Restart the device daemon at a later time and investigate the system problems that limit the number of processes.

  • Examine the 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.

  • Restart the device daemon, then retry the operation and examine the system log file.
