Chapter 5, Media Manager Status Codes and Messages 229<br />

Status Codes<br />

Media Manager Status Code: 58<br />

Message: daemon cannot obtain socket<br />

Explanation: vmd could not bind to its socket. (vmd is the Media Manager volume<br />

daemon on UNIX and the <strong>NetBackup</strong> Volume Manager service on <strong>Windows</strong>.) A system<br />

call failed when vmd attempted to bind to its configured port number. This is usually<br />

caused by another process having acquired the port be<strong>for</strong>e the vmd daemon or service<br />

started.<br />

Recommended Action:<br />

1. Examine the daemon debug log <strong>for</strong> a more detailed message on the system error.<br />

a. If not already enabled, enable debug logging by creating the necessary<br />

directories/folders. Increase the level of verbosity by adding the VERBOSE<br />

option in the vm.conf file and restarting the volume daemon, or start vmd with the<br />

verbose option.<br />

b. Retry the operation and examine the logs.<br />

2. If another process has the port, use other system commands to determine the process.<br />

Based on the result, either change the port number in your services file or map, or<br />

terminate the process that has acquired the port.<br />

3. UNIX only: Another possible cause <strong>for</strong> this error is terminating vmd with the kill<br />

command. If you have to stop vmd, the recommended method is to use the Terminate<br />

Media Manager Volume Daemon option on the Special menu in vmadm (or the<br />

equivalent command line request, vmctrldbm -t). Using the kill command to<br />

stop this process can leave it unable to bind to its assigned port the next time it is<br />

restarted. When the socket problem has occurred, the daemon debug log contains<br />

lines similar to the following:<br />

unable to obtain bound socket, Address already in use (125)<br />

Media Manager Status Code: 59<br />

Message: daemon failed accepting connection<br />

Explanation: vmd could not accept a new connection due to a system call failure. (vmd is<br />

the Media Manager volume daemon on UNIX and the <strong>NetBackup</strong> Volume Manager<br />

service on <strong>Windows</strong>.)<br />
