If you use netbackup 6.5 storage lifecycle policy and your duplication job failed on data socket error. You can try following two things:

    If you still experience issue try step 2

Windows 2008 activation issue

After I installed windows 2008, I got warning "token-based activation failed" and error in the application log(Event ID 12321 and event ID 8193). See the image.


Although I put right license key during installation, the activation still failed. I have to go to control panel then system.

Click on change product key and enter license key again. After this windows active by themselves. Or you can click activation windows now. Or you can open CMD, run "slmgr –ato".

bitsperf.dll issue in windows 2008 SP2

After I installed windows 2008 standard 64bit SP2( 2008 and SP2 in one image), there is error in application log. the open procedure for service "BITS" in DLL "c:\windows\system32\bitsperf.dll failed.


I compared bitsperf.dll on windows 2008 SP2 with windows 2008 SP1. It is same version, but SP1 has later modified time. I replace the one on SP2 with the one on SP1, then I restart the server. The error went away after this.
