Error 16240.20.0

Many error conditions are associated with this Open Server error, differentiated
by the accompanying messages. The following errors begin with the phrase
“Open Server Fatal Error 16240.20.0”:
Net-Library routine net_address_get() failed in srv__start_net

Backup Server: 1.29.2.1: Unable to start the Backup Server.
See Backup Server error log for additional information.
This is the Open Server equivalent of “Server name not found in interfaces
file.” The Backup Server will not start. Check to be sure the name of the server
you are trying to start is in the interfaces file, and remember that server names
are case-sensitive.
SYB_BACKUP is the logical name of the Backup Server. It may also be the
physical name, but it need not be.
Under normal circumstances, sybinit sets up the Backup Server, but if your
Backup Server name has been edited or deleted from the interfaces file, add it
again with sp_addserver, as follows:
1> sp_addserver SYB_BACKUP, NULL, physical-name
2> go
The specified physical-name is the name to use, both in the interfaces file and
when you do a dump or load with the at option.
