Question

nsrexecd: SYSTEM error: There is already a machine using the name: 'dc1.ad.siumed.edu'. Either choose a different name for your machine, or delete the 'NSR peer information' entry for 'dc1.ad.siumed.edu' on host: Linux server and windows client are both 7.3 SP3.Build.510 I receive this message for 5 clients out of a total 60. Any ideas?

This is an authentication error and is I think its resolution is documented in the admin guide

The client successfully backs up, but the daemon.log has several of these messages.

Check threads where we discuss about nsrauth and how to disable it.

I have the same error but it is linked to 'Nsrmon exited with return code 7' (which is another thread. Rebooting seems to clear it. Everything is running. Expecting power issues since systems other than ours are acting strange.
