NetBackup status code: 192

Message: VxSS authentication is required but not available

Explanation: On one side of a NetBackup network connection, the system requires VxSS authentication. On the other side of the connection, the other system is not configured to use VxSS. VxSS authentication is used with the NetBackup Access Control feature (NBAC). The connection was terminated because VxSS authentication cannot be completed.

Recommended Action: Make sure that both systems are configured to use NetBackup Access Control VxSS authentication with each other. Or, make sure that both systems are not configured to use VxSS with each other. The first thing to check is the Use VxSS Host properties value on each system. If one is configured for REQUIRED, the other must be configured for REQUIRED or AUTOMATIC. If one is configured for PROHIBITED, the other must be configured for PROHIBITED or AUTOMATIC.

See the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I, for the following information: how to set the Access Control-related host properties, and how to configure a system to use Access Control.
