Error Message

./bp.start_all[42]: 16051 Memory fault(coredump)
 

Cause

Lost the configuration in the /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf due to /usr file system filling up :

-rw-r--r--   1 root       root             0 Nov 17 10:52 bp.conf

Solution

Ran the "/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/netbackup start" command, which reported the following errors :

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies# ./netbackup start
NetBackup Authentication daemon started.
unable to NB_read_master_config(): Cannot find the NetBackup configuration information (110)
EXIT status = 110
NetBackup network daemon started.
unable to NB_read_master_config(): Cannot find the NetBackup configuration information (110)

The above errors pointed to /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf, which was zeroed when /usr filled up earlier :

-rw-r--r--   1 root       root             0 Nov 17 10:52 bp.conf

Able to restart Netbackup successfully after copying a good bp.conf from another similar media server to this media server.
