Problem

STATUS CODE 25: NetBackup catalog backups fail with NetBackup Status Code 25 (cannot connect on socket).

 

Solution

Overview: NetBackup catalog backups fail with NetBackup Status Code 25 (cannot connect on socket).

Troubleshooting:
Running the netstat -an command on the master server shows about a large number of ports in TIME_WAIT status.  

Logfiles:  N/A

Resolution:
One possible determining factor which can cause Status Code 25 is the amount of time which must elapse before a closed connection is released and the system can reuse a resource.  
 
On a Windows server, this is the TcpTimedWaitDelay value.
