We setup a Netbackup Development environment for testing purpose. My issue specifically is related to BMR Restore of Solaris. MY netbackup Envrionment is Running Windows 2008 R2.
our Netbackup Environment is WIndows 2008 r2
Netbackup 7.5.0.7
THe Boot Server is Solaris 10 Update 11
and the concerned Client server is Solaris 10 Update 9.
we were able to setup the BMR Solaris Sparc Boot Server and Take backup for the Concerned Solaris Sparc Server. Furthermore, i created the SRT as suggested in the BMR admin guide and Prepared to restore using the current configuration as the client machine did not change.
What my issue is that we were able to boot from SRT and execute the Solaris restore. But it fails with the following error:
Making Filesystem
creating boot image
Copying original vfstab and merging with BMR generated vfstab
WARNING: Failed to backup /etc/vfstab for replacement as /etc/vfstab.old.bmr.dmr ! (2)
in the bmrrst logs we only found a few errors which were related to Sub mirrors of the disk

Furthermore, the bmrst stops writing at the FSCK command.
we have checked all possible scenarios with the SRT and restore and now out of any luck. Also i would like ask if the disk are configured in a Software based Raid configuration. Then do we have to perform a DSR or normal BMR restore would suffice.
Hoping for prompt response. This is a client POC so it would greatly help.
