go to my site and there you may download a variety of scripts for status
reporting etc.

I have written one that reports on the successes (status 0 and 1) and all
the errors in detail.

my scripts use bperror.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] daily statistics of backups


Other than pulling information from the activity monitor, is there a
location I can get the stats of backups on a daily basis?

I have written a script that will give me the number of backups started and
of those, how many failed, in the previous 24 hours.  The concern I have is
that it is currently getting that information through bpdbjobs out of the
activity monitor.  If an operator makes changes or deletes a job from the
activity monitor, it won't show up when I run my report each morning.

I assume there are some daily log files that would hold all that
information, but I haven't been able to find the correct one yet.

Thanks for any help.
