NetWorker service does not start on the NetWorker client. # service networker start Redirecting to /bin/systemctl start networker.service Job for networker.service failed because the control process exited with an error code.

The exit status 203 is generic; it only means that the systemd could not run the command before service logic even started. In this scenario, it was also found that system security tools were installed. In the specific scenario Trend Micro Deep Security; however, other security software may result in similar symptoms.
Consult with the Operating System and security administrators regarding security software installed on the client. Depending on the security software installed, review the security tools logs to see if any actions were performed on NetWorker service files or binaries. For NetWorker clients: /opt/nsr/admin/networker.service (client service file) /opt/nsr/admin/networker.sh (client service startup script) /usr/sbin/nsrexecd (client service binary) /nsr (default install path) NetWorker must be excluded from Antivirus and security software that may negatively impact service files or databases: NetWorker: Antivirus Exclusion Considerations for NetWorker Server, Storage Node, or Client software
