Netbackup jobs failing with 48 status code

To resolve, check the hostname resolution from media server to client and vice versa.

Try below from media to client and client to media:

• Bpclntcmd -hn clientname
• Bpclntcmd -ip client ip
• Bptestbpcd -client clientname

If there is name resolution issue, resolve it.  Ie. put entries in HOSTS file, etc...

If changes have been made recently, remember to clear NBU host cache - even on client:

• bpclntcmd -clear_host_cache
• also clear ipconfig /flushdns

SQL 2008 Cluster installation fixes

Spent all day working on trying get one named instance of SQL 2008 installed on a Win 2008 R2 cluster.

Anyway, these are the things I encountered:

• SQL server 2008 failover cluster 'RequireKerberos' error;  The fix was to slipstream SQL 2008 SP1 into the installation process
• SQL cluster resource would not startup at end of installation; Name resource could not come online.  The fix was to give cluster computer name FULL CONTROL of the virtual instance names in Active Directory using ADUC.
• Verification check prior to installation would fail and not allow me to install SQL.   After manual verification that things should be ok, I used this command "setup /SkipRules=Cluster_VerifyForErrors /Action=InstallFailoverCluster /PCUSource=c:\SP1" to finally start up the installation process.
