Networker SQL Cluster client fails during creation

Hi guys, 

We have the below environment:

Windows SQL Failover Cluster, 4 nodes, 4 instances without availability groups.

Networker 19.4, Linux server. 

I am trying to create a client from the management console, i am configuring the Virtual Node: sqlserver-cluster.domain.local, adding the physical hosts to remote access and at the next step the client creation is failing. 

nsrsqlra.raw logs are below:

I have also added the physical nodes as clients to Networker. Is this an issue with permissions on the SQL Cluster? Permissions have been granted to BackupUser and Networker services are running with this account. 

Any assistance is much appreciated.

Thank you @crazyrov for all the tips. The issue was that the Networker client was not properly registered.

@Federal2004, you might have to create the client instance manually for Virtual instance to see what the issue.

Make sure that the user that you are using for the configuration has sysdba privileges.

@crazyrov  thank you for the reply. 

The user has system,sysadmin and dbcreator permissions.

Manually adding the client is failing as well. 

The user is also Domain Admin and member of local administrators, backup and remote users.

@Federal2004, the only reason a manual client configuration will fail is because NetWorker wont be able to resolve a hostname of the client that you are adding. If that is the case you might have to do a hosts file entry for the cluster name on the NetWorker server. What is the error that you are seeing ?

I created a client for the sql cluster manually, at global (2 of 2) i added all the nodes and *@*. 

The backup command is: nsrsqlsv. 

The backup is failing now with the error: Cannot run savefs: No error. Maybe i am missing the correct save sets here?

What should the saveset be? At the moment i have 5 SQL instances at the cluster.

One more thing to add, during sql-cluster creation, i reached the step where i could not expand the database cluster and view the databases.

savefs is the probe job or initial connectivity check of a kind. So this means that there is an issue with communication between the backup server and active node.
