Unable to Apply Backup Settings to Node

Troubleshooting › Plan, Job, and Settings Related › Unable to Apply Backup Settings to Node

Symptom

I have two consoles, Console A and Console B. I add a recovery point server (RPS) to Console A and create a plan for the RPS. Then I add the RPS to Console B. Now this RPS is managed by Console B. But when i update the agent node from Console A that is backed up to the RPS, I get the following error:

Unable to apply 'backup settings' to node. (Failed to find the Arcserve UDP Recovery Point Server plan on this server.)

Solution

To avoid this error, follow these steps:

Select the plan from Console A,
From the center pane, click Actions, and then select Deploy Now.
The plan gets redeployed and the backup settings are applied to the node.
