Error Message
Status 71 backup of client server_name exited with status 71 (none of the files in the file list exist)
Solution
This issue may arise if the CDROM drive path is added to the file list and multi-streaming is enabled, regardless if there is an exclusion set for the specific client and drive path (see note). If this is the case, a message similar to the one below can be found in the
bpbkar log on the client:
If multi-streaming is not enabled, the backup will continue and finish with the appropriate status code. If this is the case, a message similar to the one below can be found in the bpbkar log on the client:

If the CDROM drive path matches a drive path in the file list, there are two options to resolve this issue (if the CDROM is required to be backed up, see steps below).
Option 1
1. Right-click on the policy, and select Change
2. Select the Backup Selections tab, select the CD-ROM drive path, then select Delete and OK (Figure 2)
Option 2
1. Right-click on the policy, and select Change
2. Select the Backup Selections tab, select all drive paths (and the system state if applicable), then select Delete and OK (Figure 2)
3. Select to add the directive All Local Drives

3. Select the Backup Network Drives check box and click OK (Figure 3)

Note: If multiple streams are enabled on the backup, a job will be created for each drive path. Since a separate job is created for the CDROM drive path, the job will attempt to run and subsequently fail with a status 71. This is the intended function of NetBackup.

If multi-streaming is not enabled, the backup will continue and finish with the appropriate status code. If this is the case, a message similar to the one below can be found in the bpbkar log on the client:

To determine how VERITAS NetBackup (tm) will see the drive paths on the local computer, run
bpmount
at a command prompt on the client. This will show all the local drives, including CDROMs and floppy drives. Note that floppy drives will be labeled as CDROM (Figure 1).

Next, run
bppllist -allpolices -L -U
on the master server to confirm which drives were added to the file list.
