Status Code 191 -- (NetBackup Error 191: no images were successfully processed)

Error 191 raised when relocation of images to tape or duplication processes is get trouble. For Example when the duplication is going in progress and suddenly socket on media server is failed (status code 24 --socket write failed) the status of this job is going to be 191.

If a duplication fails with any error code, the parent "__DSSU_POLICY" relocation job always returns a Status 0 (successful) in NetBackup 5.x. Since the parent job receives a Status 0, and not a Status 134, the job is never retried. Duplications from a tape or disk storage unit also need to be retried manually if an error is encountered.
The bpduplicate command does not contain any method to retry failed duplication jobs. This is normal behavior for NetBackup. Any failed duplication jobs from tape, disk, or a DSSU will need to be retried manually in order to complete successfully.
So, my suggest when this status code occurs, the first thing to do is clarifying what is the first error happened that caused this job to be 191 status code, and solve this problem first, after this problem OK, then retry manually relocation job, because the bpduplicate command does not contain any method to retry failed duplication jobs.
