Problem
NetBackup Catalog backup should send email with the DR file if configured correctly.
The problem here is that the hot catalog backup completes successfully; however, the DR file is never emailed.

Cause
The problem is with /opt/NBUAppliance/scripts/nbapp_common.pm script.
This script calls a function (encode_base64) that was not included at the top of the script.
Solution
Check the script /opt/NBUAppliance/scripts/nbapp_common.pm, and find out whether it is missing the following line:
use MIME::Base64;
If the above line is missing from the script, please contact Symantec Technical Support to get the fix, related Etrack number is 2617244.
Please note that Symantec does not advise to edit the script under any circumstances.
If the appliance is running version 2.0.2 or higher, please consult TECH188948.
If the above line exists in the script, there can be other problems, please see TECH188948 for the details.
