Backup Fails After Networker Server IP address Change
Networker Version 7.2 on a Solaris 9 workstation.
The backup failed after I changed the IP address. The error messages are listed below. The hostname remains the same.
I changed the Solaris workstation IP address and it came back online fine. I can remotely communicate, login, and run all UNIX commands without any problems.
Does changing the IP address affect Networker server functionality? Everything was working fine until I changed the IP address.
Error messages from daemon.log:
01/23/07 12:06:29 nsrck: /nsr/index/xyz/.nsr is missing; re-creating
01/23/07 12:06:29 nsrck: Cannot create index directory for client 'xyz'
01/23/07 12:06:29 nsrck: SYSTEM error: can't create index directive file for xyz
01/23/07 19:00:06 nsrindexd: Continuing without index header for client xyz
01/23/07 19:04:46 nsrd: xyz:/ done saving to pool 'Default' (abc-backup.103) 270 MB
01/23/07 19:04:47 savegrp: command 'save -s abc-backup -g DLB -LL -f - -m xyz -t 116951073
0 -l incr -q -W 78 -N / / ' for client xyz exited with return code 255.
* xyz:/ save: SYSTEM error: can't create index directory for client 'xyz'
* xyz:/
* xyz:/ save: shutdown failed
Thanks for any input.

If you have changed IP of workstation (which would be client) how related is that with backup server (abc-backup)? According to log you have presented:
a) index was not found for xyz and its creation failed
b) server and client are not the same machine according to save command output so what happened to original xyz index file then?
If your server and client are the same then either DNS or hosts were pointing still to the old IP causing the mess.
