I ran into this immediately after going to 7.5 as well.
EMC had me change the Inactivity Timeout to 0 on the Group properties, Advanced tab for the job set. Once changed, everything is once again backing up just fine.
EMC did note that there has been some reported issues in the communication between the agent and networker server on 7.5. I would have gone back to 7.4 SP4 if this had not fixed my issue.
why not?coz I have an essue with backuping a group and the support told me that it's a network problem and asked me to change the Inactivity time out to 0.
Honestly, if there is a network problem, I would fix that first. From the GUI's online help:
Inactivity timeout - The number of minutes of inactivity before the group of saves concludes that a client machine is (presumably) permanently hung. A value of zero indicates that no inactivity checking is done. The value is ignored by synthetic full level backup.
If you really need a higher value than 30 mins, you can increase it, of course. BTW - the max value is 1000 mins (16 hrs) ... and unfortunately 0 . However, by setting it to 'forever' you just give up control. So you might never detect a hung client. Not really the best idea.
