Status Codes
Explanation: The NetBackup internal catalogs were backed up by using the bpbackupdb
command line and specifying a device path that does not exist.
Recommended Action: Retry the command using a valid device file name.
NetBackup Status Code: 123
Message: specified disk path is not a directory
Explanation: NetBackup attempted to back up its internal catalogs and the backup
attributes were set to dump to a disk. However, the disk file path already exists and is not
a directory.
Recommended Action: Specify a different disk path for the catalog backup or delete the
file that already exists.
NetBackup Status Code: 124
Message: NB database backup failed, a path was not found or is inaccessible
Explanation: One or more of the paths specified in the catalog backup configuration could
not be backed up.
Recommended Action:
1. Check the NetBackup Problems report for additional information about the error. A
possible cause is that the path does not exist.
2. After determining which path could not be accessed, correct the path names in the
catalog backup configuration.
NetBackup Status Code: 125
Message: another NB database backup is already in progress
Explanation: Only one NetBackup catalog backup may be active at any given time.
Recommended Action: None.
NetBackup Status Code: 126
Message: NB database backup header is too large, too many paths specified
Explanation: Too many paths were specified in the NetBackup catalog backup
configuration to fit in a fixed-size media header. This error should not occur under normal
circumstances.
Recommended Action: Delete some of the paths from the catalog backup configuration.
