error status 57 1

[ukadmin]

Hi
I am getting this error message because bpcd process is not running on netbackup client. Can someone tell me how to start it without rebooting server?

Regards

Not much to go on from your post.
Basics
check /etc/inetd.conf and /etc services for bpcd
from the NetBackup server try to telnet <clientIP> 13882

Just because the VERITAS documentation states a certain thing does not make it a fact and that is truth.

Thanks for your reply.

I have already check it that bpcd is not running and I can see the entry in inetd.conf file that is commented out. But I don't want to reboot server but just want to start it from command prompt. Which command can i use?

uncomment bpcd and restart inetd

'kill -HUP' the inetd process
inetd -c
or whatever...

check the man pages for inetd.conf and inetd for your specific OS

Bob, excellent link you got up there to the .pdf...

I'm working an issue right now where BPCD isn't listening and I'm trying to get the Solaris admin to realize that that is what our issue is..

To check is bpcd is listening on Solaris do a "netstat" :

# netstat -a | grep bpcd
*.bpcd *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN

We hupped the inetd process and all is good..
