In such scenario NetBackup is unable to query the EMM database when the backups are kicked off as per schedule and are waiting for the drive/media to be allocated. This can lead to backups failing with errors including: client backup was not attempted because backup window closed This inability to allocate drive can cause the backup window to be closed. This can lead to an EMM server going down and getting various EMM errors including: Unable to obtain the

backup job is in a queued state at the time the backup window for that job closes. If a job is active by the time the window closes, that active job will still run http://all-about-symantec-netbackup.blogspot.com/2015/08/status-code-196-client-backup-was-not.html to completion. However, queued jobs will fail with status 196.

The first thing to consider is the backup window itself. Determine if the current backup window is reasonable for the volume of data being backed up and the available storage resources. 1.1 Policy Configuration 1.1.1 Maximum Jobs per policy and client Policies have a setting for "Limit jobs per policy". Ensure netbackup error status that this setting is not overly constrictive of jobs that could be running. If the maximum number of jobs is reached on the policy, additional jobs will queue. If this setting is too low, queued jobs may result in a status 196 despite the fact that they have the resources to run. Within "Global Attributes" under the Master Server's host properties, there is a setting for the "Maximum jobs per client". This has an effect similar to that of "Limit jobs per policy", but on the client level. If multiple data streams are being used, ensure that this setting is not constricting jobs that could be running. If the maximum number of jobs is reached on the client, additional jobs will queue. 1.1.2 Additional Features/Options Please take note of the following features, as they are designed to use the backup window more efficiently: Synthetic backups: Synthetic backups allow logical full and cumulative "backups" to take place without actually transferring data from the client. This can improve performance by providing the restore benefits of Full or Cumulative Incremental backups, without backing up redundant data during the backup window. Advanced Client backups: Advanced client backup methods such as Flashbackup involve "snapshot" backups. This can improve performance by backing up
