Anything besides an exit code of "0" zero will cause the backup to fail.


if [ some test ];then
        exit 2
fi

Subject: [Veritas-bu] bpstart actions

Running Netbackup 5.1mp4  on solaris 9.

I need to get some start scripts to check things before my backup runs on a
particular host. I was going to do this with bpstart_notify.<policyname> to
check the status of a log file. If successfully then continue.

Im wondering what to do if the status of the logfile means i dont want the
backup to run, and then how will this get passed to netbackup in an exit
code.  What can i put in bpstart so it doesnt launch the backup to tape for
that client and actually chucks some error code out through netbackup to
view on job monitor or my daily report?

Anyone tried this?

Cheers
