Message: RB media server mismatch

Explanation: If you have any storage units that are specified for multiple copies, they must be on the same media server.

Recommended Action: Do the following, as appropriate:

  • Configure the backup schedule with a storage unit or storage unit groups that can be run on the same media server.

  • For detailed information, examine the unified logging files on the NetBackup server for the nbrb service (originator ID 118). All unified logging is written to /usr/openv/logs (UNIX) or install_path\NetBackup\logs (Windows).
