I really wish there was a way to:
* Have backup_notify also report the job number that failed. It gets
client name, policy name, sched name, sched type, and status, but not the
job id. That is really dumb and makes correlating with the activity
monitor/bpdbjobs more difficult.
* Have NetBackup rerun a specific job ID.
I've been asking for that last one for I don't know how many years.
A typical scenario is:
* Backup starts and launches 6 streams
* 1 of the 6 fails
* We have to create a special rerun policy, manually list the files,
etc. to rerun that one stream.
WHY can't NetBackup allow you to rerun a specific job ID? Why do I have to
go through all this extra work?
