A few questions:
I see that the savegrp command has the '-t' option, but the man page says:
"The time to use instead of the current time for determining which level
to use for this savegrp (in nsr_getdate(3) format). By default, the
current time is used."
1. Do I take that to mean that if you don't supply a level using the
'-l' option then it uses the level that's set for the group or client's
schedule for that particular date that you supply with the '-t'? So, for
example, if I had a level 3 scheduled for 07/13/10, and a level incr
scheduled for 07/15/10, and I ran the command as:
savegrp -t 07/13/10 group
then it would run a level 3 for that group even though the level
scheduled for today's date is an incremental?
Or does the '-t' option instead refer to a date/time, possibly in the
past, wherein it would control how far forward it comes for backing up
the files, e.g. the numeric question I asked in my other post (Subject:
"Numeric backup question")?
2. If the '-t' option is used to determine the level, based on what's
scheduled for that date, then it seems that it would make no sense to
use both the '-l' and the '-t' options, right?
Whenever I use the savegrp command, I always specify the level, e.g.
savegrp -l incr group
or something like:
savegrp -l 3 group
etc.
3. I assume that this does the same thing as launching the group from
NMC (or simply letting it start by itself with Autostart: Enabled)
assuming, of course, that the group's schedule had that same level set
for that day?
