NetBackup Error 7640 Fix
Backups failing for only a specific host with the error 7640? Here's how to fix that!
All of the following commands are to be performed on the client!-
Run this command:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpclntcmd -pn -verbose -debug
- If the error ends with "the peer host certificate cannot be verified," continue.
-
Stop the NetBackup service (reminder: on the client):
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/netbackup stop
-
Start the NetBackup service:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/netbackup start
-
Recheck the status:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpclntcmd -pn -verbose -debug
- The certificate error should no longer be seen.
- Retry the failed backup or wait for it to run again.
