症状

The NetWorker VMware Protection integration is configured with the vProxy Appliance. The vProxy backups are unable to open a target directory on the Data Domain. There are traditional NetWorker client policies that are properly backing up to the target Data Domain Pool. The backup log shows:

原因

The target backup devices are on a remote storage node, which is running an older NetWorker major release compared to the NetWorker server. The NetWorker Server and NetWorker Storage nodes should be running the same version in the environment.

解决方案

The NetWorker Storage node should be upgraded to match the version of the NetWorker Server.
