Question on block based backups
Hi,
This is the first time that I use block based backup. When doing this type backup, it always reports "The storage node assigned for the client 'nwclient3.usc.com' is non-Windows." But actually, the OS of storage is windows server 2008 r2 sp1. Is there anything that I miss to configure?
Following is detailed information.

Hi Yuaniyi,
This is a permission issue, add the following line in the administrators properties of your networker
group=Administrators,host=nwclient3.usc.com
user=administrator,host=nwclient3.usc.comuser=system,host=nwclient3.usc.com
Hope it's help

Hi,
strange, this line in your log:
102746:save: Cannot obtain the resource details of the storage node 'nwstorage.usc.com' from the NetWorker server 'nwserver.usc.com'.
is telling than he didn't get enough permission to get detail of your storage node.
Here is a copy of a chat session I've done with EMC support:
102746:save: Cannot obtain the resource details of the storage node 'XXX' from the NetWorker server 'XXXx.
102751:save: The storage node assigned for the client 'XXX' is non-Windows.
found a CQNW153982
Backup fails with wrong error message
this proper error message that backup failed due to insufficient user permission
added
Set usergroup Users as server only
group=Administrators,host=XXX
user=administrator,host=XXXX
user=system,host=XXXX
Hope it will help you.

Hi, got the same issue and solved it .
Check for the "Client OS type" attribute of the client resource configured as the storage node.
As part of the check to identify the OS type of the storage node, the above attribute is queried. However if the above attribute is not populated with a value, then it is safely assumed to be non-windows and fails the backup.
this is working fine for me now
regards
philippe
If the attribute "Client OS type" of the client resource configured as the storage node is not populated, then try performing a backup of the storage node. This should populate the respective attributes.
After this value is populated, please perform block based backups.

You say: "But actually, the OS of storage is windows server 2008 r2 sp1. Is there anything that I miss to configure?"
The nwserver obviously is 'nwserver.usc.com'.
So what's the OS of the storage node 'nwstorage.usc.com' which is obviously assigned to the client resource?
