Are you running the command local on the Cell Manager or from a remote system?
Check if the name in
/etc/opt/omni/cell/cell_server (if Unix) or
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Hewlett-Packard\OpenView\OmniBackII\Site - CellServer (if Windows) is
correct.
Cannot access the Cell Manager system (inet is not responding).
The Cell Manager host file is not reachable or is not up and running or has no
OmniBack II software installed and configured on it.
A telnet to port 5555 of the cell manager host returns:
connection refused
Solution
There was no "omni" entry in /etc/inetd.conf.
Add the following line to inetd.conf:
omni stream tcp nowait root /opt/omni/lbin/inet inet \
-log /var/opt/omni/log/inet.log
Run "inetd -c" to reread the configuration file.

I have experience with this problem because I faced with it when I am a beginner
with DP :)
The exactly reason is : you are missing in /etc/inetd.conf file configuration!
Just check for this line has been added to this file:
omni stream tcp nowait root /opt/omni/lbin/inet inet -log
/var/opt/omni/log/inet.log
This clears still running sessions:
omnidbutil -clear
Show database is running?
omnisv -status
Is your tmp directory /var/opt/omni/tmp missing?
Run the omnisv -stop command on the Cell Manager to stop the
Data Protector services/processes:
  /opt/omni/sbin/omnisv -stop
On the Cell Manager, manually create the temporary directory:
  /var/opt/omni/tmp
Run the omnisv -start command to start the services/processes.
  /opt/omni/sbin/omnisv -start

To start the OmniBack II daemons on the Cell Manager host use the command omnisv
-start
on HP/UX Cell Manager or omnisv.exe -start on Windows NT Cell Manager.
S1: /opt/omni/sbin> ./omnisv -status

Check Level Mode Status
==================================================
Core -core OK
omnisv -stop
Check running processes with ps -ef | grep omni
Kill all omni processes still running
omnisv -start
omnisv -status
Is the cellmanager patched-up?
omnisv -stop
/opt/omni/lbin/crs -clshm
/opt/omni/lbin/crs -shutdown
omnisv -start
This clears shared memory.
omnisv -status
