NetBackup Messaging Broker (mqbroker) not listed in services lists even if it is running
In NetBackup 9.0 on Solaris systems, the NetBackup Administration Console services list and the output of the bpps command might not list the NetBackup Messaging Broker (mqbroker) service despite the service being in a running state. It may lead to the wrong interpretation that the NetBackup Messaging Broker service is not running.
You can verify this situation with the following steps.
Check the output of the following command:
bpps | grep mqbroker output
It may not list mqbroker.
Check the output of the following command:
ps -ef | grep usr | grep openv | grep mqbroker | grep beam.smp
It lists mqbroker if the NetBackup Messaging Broker service is in a running state.
Workaround:
Run the following command:
/usr/openv/mqbroker/bin/nbmqroker stop
Wait for few seconds and then run the bp.start_all command, located in
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bp.start_all.Check the output of the following command:
ps -ef | grep usr | grep openv | grep mqbroker | grep beam.smp
Run the following command:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpps
It should list the NetBackup Messaging Broker service.
