Problem
NDMP backup ends with status 99
Error Message
Status 99
'RPC error: ERROR: BAD ENV OP'
Cause
Bad path in the policy's "Backup Selections" tab.
The policy had:
/nasstorage/vol03/.snapshot/daily.xxx_xxxx_xxx
The correct path was:
/nasstorage/vol03/.snapshot/daily.xxx__xxxx__xxx
(Please note the two successive / uninterrupted underscores in the snapshotname path)
Solution
The pathname is incorrectly formatted -- NDMP pathnames require two underscores in the path.
To specify the backup path for a snapshot, use the following format:
/<vservername>/<volumename>/.snapshot/<snapshotname>
For example:
/nasstorage/vol03/.snapshot/daily.xxx__xxxx__xxx
(Please note the two successive / uninterrupted underscores in the snapshotname path)
