Installation fails for clients with pure IPV6 enabled on HP-UX 11.31 IA64
NetBackup 8.1.1 installation fails for a client with pure IPv6 enabled on an HP-UX 11.31 IA64 platform. The installation fails because HP-UX commands such as swlist and swinstall are not supported in pure IPv6 mode.
Workaround:
Enable or configure IPv4 along with IPv6 when you install NetBackup 8.1.1 on a client on an HP-UX platform.
Or
Before you install NetBackup 8.1.1, perform the following procedure to edit default values:
- Open the following file:
/var/adm/sw/defaults - Add the following entry to the file:
rpc_binding_info=ncacn_ipv6_tcp:[2121] ncadg_ipv6_udp:[2121]
- Save and close the file.
- Stop and then start swagentd with the following commands:
swagentd -k swagentd
- Open the following file:
/${HOME}/.swdefaults - Add the following entry to the file:
rpc_binding_info=ncacn_ipv6_tcp:[2121] ncadg_ipv6_udp:[2121]
- Save and close the file.
