Is there a way to dump the bpdbjobs -all_columns info out to a file, say
after every backup, but if a job gets deleted out of activity monitor
not have it deleted from the dump?

I tried using the -append option of bpdbjobs but I didn't get it to work
right.

I first ran bpdbjobs -all_colums -append >>Somefile.txt

Then I deleted a job from activity monitor and ran the same command
again. It re-dumped the same information, but without the job I manually
deleted. If it were truly appending, then it would just add the new jobs
into somefile.txt and not delete the job I manually deleted. Make sense?


Is there a different way to do this that does work?

I've recently discovered that the jobs output fails to include client
image information for restores.  The gui actually shows those details,
at least in 5.1 it does.  To get that, you'll need to read from the try
logs under

/usr/openv/netbackup/db/jobs/trylogs/<jobid>.t

Other than that, bpdbjobs seems to be the way to go.
