Ursache
To access the content of a container, the NetVault Server name must match the one initially used to add the data to QoreStor. This errors usually happens when the container is added to a NetVault Server deployment on another location (e.g. DR site) or the application has been re-installed, and the NVDB was partially restored. Although the name of the NetVault Server is the same, the identity number now is different.

Lösung
This issue is resolved by removing the RDA container from NetVault and re-adding it back. Most likely, it will be required to use the option to force the removal and re-add of the container due to the mismatch identity.
