Dell carefully evaluates and monitors code deployment data to ensure that product releases meet our stringent expectations to provide our customers with reliable products and solutions.

The vProxy appliance is deployed with a static IPv4 address that never appears on the VM and does not respond; wickedd reports duplicate‑IP errors because the address is in use on the network.

The NetWorker nsrimportclient process fails with a DNS resolution error when importing clients to a destination server.

A FLR Mount fails with the error: "NFS has reached the maximum number of supported volumes" on Dell NVP vProxy.

NetWorker Management Console 19.13.0.2 and later fails to install or upgrade on Windows system.

After upgrading to Networker version 19.13.0.3, Recover Space operation for some volumes is ailing.

The NetWorker command `nsrcapinfo` is used to collect information about backups performed on the NetWorker server. It is observed that it is reporting the provisioned size of VM backups.

NetWorker may incorrectly report LTO-7, LTO-8, and LTO-9 tape volumes as 100% utilized or full before their native capacity is reached. No "prematurely full" errors are observed in the daemon logs, and the issue does not affect actual tape usage, backup operations, cloning, or recoveries.

A file-level restore (FLR) performed through the NetWorker VMware Protection (NVP) vProxy appliance fails while mounting virtual machine disk (VMDK) files on the target virtual machine with the error "Another task is already in progress." The FLR cleanup process also fails to remove the partially mounted VMDK files, which can prevent the VM from starting properly upon reboot. This issue occurs when the target VM is simultaneously protected by vSphere Replication Manager or another backup/replication product that holds a concurrent task on the VM.

After upgrading to NetWorker 18.2.0.0, NetWorker VMware Protection (NVP) vProxies become unavailable, libCURL error 7 occurs because the vProxy registers on an interface than the server, mismatch.

This article is intended to provide a simple baseline for desirable and standard networking tunables for NetWorker hosts.

These instructions describe how to replace the default NetWorker self-signed certificate with a CA-signed certificate on a NetWorker Management Console (NMC) server.

These are the general steps to replace the default NetWorker self-signed certificate with a Certificate Authority (CA)-signed certificate for the "AUTHC" and "NWUI" services. This KB applies when the NetWorker server and NetWorker Web User Interface (NWUI) server are installed on Windows operating systems.

This KB details the process that is required for configuring "AD over SSL" (LDAPS) from the NetWorker Web User Interface (NWUI).

These are the general steps to replace the default NetWorker self-signed certificate with a Certificate Authority (CA)-signed certificate for the "AUTHC" and NetWorker Web UI (NWUI) services.

Overview of configuring AD or Secure Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAPS) with NetWorker using the NMC's external authority wizard. This KB can also be used for instructions on updating an existing external authority configuration.

This article defines the diagnostic approach of troubleshooting Virtual Machine (VM) backup or restore performance issues when using the NetWorker VMware Protection (NVP) vProxy solution.

Changing the log level to 'debug' may be necessary in order to troubleshoot an issue with NetWorker VMware Protection (NVP) with vProxy Appliance solution (NVP-vProxy). This article explains how to change the log level.

This article provides an overview of how to clear Java cache, enable Java console, and configure Java debug on Microsoft Windows systems using NetWorker Runtime Environment (NRE) to access the NetWorker Management Console (NMC).

This KB provides a general log location for NetWorker Virtual Edition (NVE) upgrade or install failures.

When auditing disk usage, it is often necessary to check expired save sets on specific volumes; this article explains how.

NetWorker server workflow backup completed successfully, but skipped connection failed clients without error/warning.

NetWorker VMware Protection (NVP) backup workflows intermittently fail with the error "Unable to bind socket to port 0 from connection port range 0-0: Cannot assign requested address." The same socket bind error also appears for other NetWorker processes and workflows on the server. The failure occurs because the NetWorker server operating system has exhausted its available sockets, leaving no open sockets for NetWorker processes to bind to.

In Dell NetWorker environments where backup and clone actions are configured within the same workflow, the nsrim process may prematurely delete both full and incremental save sets from the clone volume even though dependent save sets still exist and have not yet expired. This breaks the backup chain on the clone device, rendering recovery from the clone impossible if the primary backup volume becomes unavailable.

The Recover tab in NetWorker Management Console (NMC) does not display any recovery job information, including both historical and active recovery sessions.

Dell NetWorker vProxy backup for a VM fails due to failing VMware snapshot. ERROR: Snapshot creation task failed: An error occurred while taking a snapshot: Invalid change tracker error code
