Backup Jobs to Data Mover Servers Fail

Valid on all UNIX and Linux operating systems supported by UNIX and Linux Data Mover.

Symptom

A backup job was submitted to a data mover server and the job failed.

Solution

The util_par_file configuration file contains a parameter named HOST that defines the host name of the primary server to which the data mover server is registered. The values contained in the configuration file were populated when you ran the sapsetup script. If a data mover server is registered with a different primary server after you ran sapsetup, the util_par_file configuration file will contain a value of HOST that is not correct. This condition will cause backup jobs to data mover servers to fail.

To remedy this problem run the sapsetup script to reconfigure the util_par_file configuration file. This solution lets you update the value of HOST to the correct primary server.
