Can you check if ndmpd is on on the filer side with:

ndmpd status

and then run

ndmpd on

If it was not up ?

Hello folks,

using Networker 3.4 on a HP9000/J6000 and a F85 netapp NDMP host. I authorosize access to the NDMP host as follows:

set_ndmp_attr -auth matterhorn root

after which I'm asked to give me the password (twice). The command

set_ndmp_attr -list

suggest that every thing went okay

Record Type: Authentication NDMP Server: matterhorn Username : root Password : <registered> Record Type: Robotic Information NDMP Server: matterhorn Device : spt0 Controller : 5 SCSI Id : 1 SCSI LUN : 0

But real verification fails:

set_ndmp_attr -verify matterhorn

Connecting to host "matterhorn" as user "root"... Failed set_ndmp_attr: host "matterhorn" failed set_ndmp_attr: unable to continue

What's cooking? and what should I do to repair?

rgds,

YS
