NetBackup status code: 8617
Message: The connection continues because insecure communication with hosts is allowed.
Explanation: The peer host is NetBackup 8.0 or earlier and the security setting is configured to allow insecure communication. This setting allows communication with hosts running NetBackup 8.0 or earlier, even though it is insecure.
Recommended Action: Upgrade the host to a NetBackup version that is later than 8.0, so it can communicate securely.
