NetBackup servers must use a host name that is compliant with RFC 1123 and RFC 952
Starting with NetBackup 8.0, all NetBackup server names must use a host name that is complaint with RFC 1123 ("Requirements for Internet Hosts - Application and Support") and RFC 952 ("DOD Internet Host Table Specification") standards. These standards include the supported and unsupported characters that can be used in a host name. For example, the underscore character ( _ ) is not a supported character for host names.
More information is available about these standards and about this issue:
http://www.veritas.com/docs/000125019
These standards should be applied to all computing hosts, including all NetBackup hosts. To accommodate legacy environments and functionality, features of NetBackup that were implemented before 2010 continue to allow some non-compliant characters. But newer features, as well as more recently integrated 3rd-party components, are not tested with nor expected to be compatible with host names that do not adhere to the industry standards.
In some situations, it may be possible to configure name services with a network hostname alias that is standards-compliant, and then use the alias when you configure NetBackup. But using host names that are standards-compliant is the only way to ensure compatibility with all features.
