Joe,

This only works if you know the savetime.  If you knew the savetime, you would
know that a backup had been done.  Catch 22 here.

It is pretty easy to build a web page that is updated at the end of each
savegroup completion and lists the date/time of last backup for each
client/saveset.

Shelley


sls@nickel% nsrinfo -t today krypton
scanning client `krypton' for savetime 1060758000(Wed Aug 13 00:00:00 2003)
from the backup namespace
0 objects found
