Thanks for the help.   Used a couple suggestions put together.  Here's the 
final result.    Just tested it and it works fine and dandy.

Thanks again.

Re: [Networker] Running a backup from the networker client






David,

I initiate backups from a Solaris 7 system to a Networker Server running 
on
Windows 2K with the following code (korn shell):

==================================================================
# start oracle redo logs save
# see save_ora_redo* for the actual script that gets run
echo "
  . type: NSR group;
  name: ora-redologs
  update Autostart: Start now" | nsradmin -s NwkrServer -i -
 
# Check status, wait until done
StatF=/tmp/RDLstat$$.tmp
sgDone=0
while [ sgDone -eq 0 ]
do
 sleep 30
 echo "
  show status
  print type: NSR group;
  name: ora-redologs" | nsradmin -s NwkrServer -i - > $StatF
#
  if grep "status: idle;" $StatF
  then
        sgDone=1
  fi
done
===============================================================

I'm not sure what the exact coding would be on Windows but I think it's 
been
posted on the list before so you might check the archives.

Basically you can communicate with the NetWorker Server from a client
through the nsradmin command.

Hope this helps, Dave

Subject: [Networker] Running a backup from the networker client

Hello,
We are currently running networker 7.2.  My goal is to initiate a backup 
from a networker client machine.   Im wondering if there is a command I 
can 
use that will also accept schedule, and directive options.  I am looking 
at "save" but it dosent look like it will use a schedule for running full, 

and incrmental backups.   Anyone have any ideas?
