I had this problem with a new NetWorker install and Microsoft SharePoint.

"Secondary backup with job id (%d) failed on host '%s' "

The secondary host was my SharePoint Dummy node, the SQL server. I added all nodes to the application administration user group in NetWorker to correct the problem.

Hi, Mailboo74 Could you tell me what exactly did you add in the user group? I have the same problem with Exchange backup.

Maliboo74 · Answer

Hi,

I had to add both the SharePoint web front end server as well as the SharePoint sql server to the Application Administrators user group in NMC.

user=administrator, host=webfrontend.domain.com

user=system, host=webfrontend.domain.com

user=administrator, host=sharepointsql.domain.com

user=system, host=sharepointsql.domain.com

I had the same problem and added the NMM Exchange Admin user configured on the Networker client for the DAG.

- Open Networker Management Console

- Select client properties of Exchange DAG

- Select the Apps & Modules tab and add the NMM admin user created with NMM Exchange Admin Configuration

- Select the Globals (2 of 2) tab and add the FQDN of the same NMM admin user for your domain and the local Exchange servers (the client wizard config should have already added SYSTEM@exch1, SYSTEM@exch2, AND SYSTEM@exch3)

Maybe a bit overkill, but I was tired of messing around with it and just needed the backups to work.

Example:

SYSTEM@exch1

SYSTEM@exch2

SYSTEM@exch3

NMMExchange@exch-dag.domain.com

NMMExchange@exch1.domain.com

NMMExchange@exch2.domain.com

NMMExchange@exch3.domain.com

NMMExchange@domain.com
