I am having some trouble tracking down what is causing the 636 error for some backups. It only happens on backups using the DMZ media server we have here. I know you guys will want to see some logs to help with the issue so let me know what all is needed and I will gladly grab that info and share.
I am seeing this issue on several clients of varying OS's, but they all use the same media server. Just using this one client below as a baseline. I am seeing the error on both Windows and Unix clients alike. Normally when I see this its hung bpbkar processes on a Windows Server 2003 machine and I can cycle the client, stop the hung processes and then it will work, but with these ones thats not solving the issue for me.
Netbackup version on Master - 7.6.0.2
Master server OS - Solaris 10
Client OS - Solaris 10
NB version on Client - 7.6.0.2
