Hi,

What type of backup are you running? I don't think you need to use snapshot method to backup an AIX file system.

Please ensure you didn't add the client into a "Snapshot group", so please check the group properties and make sure that "Snapshot" is not selected nor there is a snapshot pool.

Thank you,

Carlos

Hi Jesus

this error means that you did not populate the Snapshot backup with the right parameters , it is complaining specifically from the absence of the "Mount hostname" , the mount hostname is the host where the FS will be mounted after Snapshot creation.

- is this a Snapshot backup ? I mean is using Snapshot mechanism an intended configuration ? let me ask the question in a different way ; how did you configure that client ?

to show the full client configuration run the following commands from your Networker server

nsradmin

. type : nsr client ; name :

option hidden

print

- those will dump the named client configuration in text mode , and you can easily paste that to the Forum

Regards

Shareef

You don't have to use snap for aix fs backup - that's what the error is.
