For Windows 2000 and NT clients the bpstart_notify and bpend_notify scripts have the following environmental variables: STREAM_NUMBER STREAM_COUNT STREAM_PID I created a quick and dirty bpstart_notif
This is a lost cause so save yourself some work. There is no guarantee that the last stream won't complete before an earlier stream and unless you disallow retries completely, the task gets harder an

Actually I plan to create .lock files for each stream as they call the bpstart_notify script. For example: Stream 1 starts and creates the stream_1.lock file. Stream 2 starts and creates the stream_2

Correct.....and should a stream fail and restart, it creates a new lock file so everything's cool, as long as the end script doesn't run and somepoint before that stream restarts.....and the chances
Would you be able to share this script with us, once you have it working....I am sure a lot of people would benefit from this...I definitely would benefit for starters What I would want to achieve if

Jayanth, I'd be happy to share this script; however it is not working correctly right now. One reason happens to be that I failed to realize that even though the .lock files will prevent other stream
Thanks Jasan...if you could try giving a path in the 1st backup stream to be very small like in KBs and that stream need not be part of the DB, could be part of File System. That way you could ensure
No, this won't work. For any combination of multiple streams and bpstart/end scripts, you will have a not-insignificant probability of logic failure. I've seen this in practise at our shop and I've s
