Symptom

In the client trace file you may see the following :

Cause

Auto deployment of Linux client is not supported if journal or space management (HSM) file sets are installed

Environment

This problem was reported on Linux system with journal backup client installed. This rule also applies if IBM Spectrum Protect Space Management ( HSM) client is installed.

Resolving The Problem

According to the following messages manual link, auto deployment is not supported for clients with the journal based client installed. It says the following:

ANS4273E The deployment manager detected a journal based backup (JBB) client on the workstation where it needs to deploy the backup-archive client.

Explanation

An attempt was made to deploy the backup-archive client to a workstation that already has the JBB client installed. On some platforms, the backup-archive client cannot be deployed to a workstation that has the JBB client installed.

User response

Uninstall the JBB client and reschedule the backup-archive client deployment.
