New CloudPoint asset information may affect recovery
NetBackup 9.1 introduced additional asset information for CloudPoint servers. This information is required during recovery. As a part of normal operations, this new information is discovered and the appropriate databases are populated with that information. If you attempt a recovery before that information is populated, the recovery fails. Veritas has observed this failure in both Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Platform, but not Microsoft Azure.
Workaround:
Use one of these methods to resolve this issue:
Wait at least 2 hours after the upgrade finishes for the appropriate discovery processes to populate the servers with the new information.
Alternatively, manually run the discovery for the server you need to recover. From the NetBackup web UI, select , select the specific CloudPoint server, then from the Action menu, select .
