NVDB - Backup Fails with "Job Manager Lost Message Channel" Auditor Check
Description

NVDB Backup failing after running the auditor check with the following messages:
Job Message 2014/10/03 04:49:31 11449 Data Plugin NVSERVER Backup auditor
Error 2014/10/03 04:50:10 11449 Media NVDB_BACKUP PhysicalDrive2:1: had channel error
Error 2014/10/03 04:50:10 11449 Jobs NVSERVER Job manager lost message channel unexpectedly
Error 2014/10/03 04:50:10 11449 Jobs NVSERVER Job Status: Backup Failed
Cause

Issue is a result of the a corrupt audit.bin file. To check this, go to:
NV Home directory: NetVault Backup/db
Check the file audit.bin and note the size
The size of this file should not be above the purge limit set in the NetVault Conigurator 'Auditing' tab. If it is, the following problems could be possible:
a) The 'Purge' settings are not working properly
b) The file is corrupt
Audit information could also be generated more than normal, so monitor the growth of the file after the next steps
Resolution

Remove this file by doing the following:
Stop the NetVault Service
Go into the /NetVault Backup/db folder
Copy the audit.bin and move to elsewhere
Delete the file audit.bin from /db folder
Re-start the NV Service
This will create a new audit.bin
Now try to re-run the NVDB Backup
Backup should now pass the audit check phase of the job
