I have some pearl scripts that monitor the nightly backups
then generates a
report at 07:00, or when the backups complete, whichever
comes first. The
report gets mailed to a central Notes database that anyone
can read. You
can send to individuals as well by setting up the UNIX mail
aliases.
Let me know if you'd like a look at these and I'll send them
to you.

Subject: Informing clients when their backup is completed
We would like our clients (MAC and NT users) to have an easy
way of knowing
if their scheduled backup has completed successfully. The
product they have
been using, Retrospect, would cause a window to pop up once
the backup had
completed. I don't want users to have to read the
dsmsched.log to determine
if it worked or not.
Naturally I can see centrally which schedules succeeded or
failed, but we
would like the user to also be informed.
Has anyone any experience of this? How do others manage
failed backups in
large groups of users?
Thanks,
Eric Winters
