I have moved the replication storage server and can communicate and ping by name and IP address.  Replication fails with:

ERROR: avmaint: hfscreatetime: cannot connect to server avmr-str02.xxx.xxx.xxx at 10.90.2.162:27000

and further down in the replicate.log

0  ERROR!  Exit code 15: Cannot connect to Avamar dispatcher

There are no firewalls between the units, all LAN connections. What am I missing with the move?  Is there some place on either the main storage unit or NDMP that is referencing the avmr-str02 unit by IP address?

Google searches so far have not gotten me anywhere.

What version of Avamar is this? Is the IP address you've shown here correct?

Please run the following tests to help narrow down the cause of the issue:

  • On the replication target, run "avmaint datacenterlist"
  • On the replication source, run "avmaint datacenterlist --hfsaddr= "
  • On the replication source, run "avmaint datacenterlist --hfsaddr= --encrypt=ssl"

If the first command fails, the target isn't able to talk to itself which implies some issue with the target. If the second command fails, the source can't communicate with the target on the unencrypted port 27000. If the third command fails, the source likely can't communicate with the target at all.

In the replication configuration, is the target specified by hostname or IP address? For cron-based replication, check repl_cron.cfg or use Enterprise Manager. For plugin-based replication, use the MC GUI to check the configured replication targets.
