    Hi

    I am receiving the following errors on all our IBM 3850 in our cluster:

    The errors happen on all our 3850 but not at the same time. It seems to be only affecting the backups as when the error occurs the backup of the vm stops and Netbackup throws up “system call failed(11) error”.

    I’ve talked to the network guys and they have sent me the error log for the switch and it is not showing any errors for the time that the link is going down. Also there are no alerts been triggered.

    The distributed switch is configured with uplinks nic3 and nic7, connected to the VM Network. The switch that the uplinks are connected to is configured with port channel as it carries different vlan traffic. The teaming is set to route based on IP hash and the network failover is set to link status only.

    Any ideas?

    Hello.

    What version of NetBackup are you using? You might want to check out the reasons behind status code 11 at:

    Using Netbackup 7.0.1. I have checked the Netbackup error which lead me to the vmware error. If the error doesn't occur then the vm will be backed up successfully. If the error occurs then the backup errors.
