veritas netbackup

Hi,

We am having some issues with Veritas Netbackup and I wondering if
anyone out there can offer me some advice.

We have a SunFire V880 with Solaris 8 and Veritas Netbackup 3.4. The
autoloader is an L9. Veritas Netbackup client is also installed on
several Sun and Windows boxes.

Here's a description of my problem:
On our last scheduled full backup, only the backup server was backed up
and the 4 other clients were not.

The backup status report doesn't show the status of the 4 missing client
backup jobs. It's as if they didn't exist. Netbackup's problem log
also has no mention of missing backup jobs. The V880 was rebooted mid
afternoon. Could this have caused the failures?

A few weeks ago, the problem was the other way around. The client boxes
were backed up but the backup server failed. On that day, I had to make
some changes to the full backup, ie, add in a new client to be backed up
under "Client List Management". Was there something additional I needed
to do?

Netbackup has been configured in such a way that the V880 is the first
box to be backed up, then the other Sun boxes and finally the Windows
box.

This backup problem has occurred on a few occasions when no noticable
changes have taken place.

Any idea as how to fix this netbackup problem?

Thanks in advance.
