BackupReport software from Bocada, among other things, creates nice HTML
files that can be made available to end-users to browse and/or search to
see what is being backed up. It works with NetWorker, and also all the
other common backup software from VERITAS, IBM, HP, etc.

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)
