How to fix "No 'NSR auditlog' resource found" errors

Updated 25 Mar 2012 Read time 1 min 44 sec(s) (1903 views). NetWorker

Occasionally you may see the following errors being reported in the daemon.raw on the networker client:-

nsrexecd RAP warning Unable to log an audit message. No 'NSR auditlog' resource found.
nsrexecd Unable to log an audit message. No 'NSR auditlog' resource found.

To resolve the above errors, we simply need to create a new nsrladb on the networker client with four simple steps

Stop all daemons/services on the NetWorker client
Rename the nsrladb directory
Restart the NetWorker daemons/services
Verify new NSR auditlog resources are created

Below are examples for various NetWorker clients

Solaris clients

Stop the NetWorker processes
```
# /etc/init.d/networker stop
```

Rename NSRLADB directory

# mv /nsr/res/nsrladb /nsr/res/nsrladb.old

Start the NetWorker processes
```
# /etc/init.d/networker start
```

Run nsradmin to verify that the NSR auditlog resource is recreated. For example:

# nsradmin -p nsrexecd
NetWorker administration program.
Use the "help" command for help, "visual" for full-screen mode.
nsradmin> type
        Known types: NSR auditlog, NSR log, NSR peer information,
                NSR remote agent, NSR system port ranges, NSRLA;

nsradmin> quit

Windows clients

Start an elevated command prompt on the Windows client
1. Click Start.
2. In the search box, type cmd
3. Right-click on cmd.exe and choose Run as Administrator. If done properly, the below User Account Control window will appear.
4. Click Yes to run the Windows Command Prompt as Administrator.
Stop the NetWorker services
```
C:\> net stop nsrexecd /y
```

Rename NSRLADB folder

C:\> rename %install_path%\nsr\res\nsrladb %install_path%\nsr\res\nsrladb.old

Start NetWorker services
```
C:\> net start nsrexecd
```
Run nsradmin to verify that the NSR auditlog resource is recreated

Linux clients

Stop the networker daemons
```
# service networker stop
```

Rename the NSRLADB directory

# mv -i /nsr/res/nsrladb /nsr/res/nsrladb.old

Restart the NetWorker daemons
```
# service networker start
```

Run nsradmin to verify that the NSR auditlog resource is recreated

# nsradmin -p nsrexecd
NetWorker administration program.
Use the "help" command for help, "visual" for full-screen mode.
nsradmin> . type: nsrla
Current query set
nsradmin> print
          type: NSRLA
          name: xxxXXXxxx;
    :
    :
nsradmin> quit
