Re: [Veritas-bu] Command Line for Master Server Properties

I knew that was too easy, it just means it’s less than a day, I thought it was a Frequency of 0.

I swear I looked at this because I thought for sure it was frequency. Here’s the text output for the Differential schedule

Schedule: Differential

Type: CINC (4)

Frequency: 0+ day(s) (50400 seconds) The Full backup shows “4 day(s) (345600 seconds) What does 0+ translate to? I’m going to ask him for a screenshot.

Randy

In the Policy, there should be a Schedule (or a window as its known). Double click on this and tell me what the Frequency is set to under the "Schedule Tab" on the Attributes tab.

This is really strange. Last night all of the clients were removed from the Client Attributes tab of the Master Server Properties except one client. That one client backed up 3 times and the clients that were removed from the list ran only once. What in the world does this tab have to do with how often a job runs? I had the guy send me screen shots and he showed me the 3 sections of the Client Attributes tab and that’s all he is changing. This is really strange. Anyone out there still sober enough to tell me why this is happening or has anyone else ever seen something like this?

Thanks,

Randy

Windows environment and I meant I wasn’t able to rdp or remotely login and take a look. I wanted him to pipe the results to a txt file and email them to me. I thought about screen shots but there are so many tabs I thought that would take a while.

What kind of client?

On UNIX/Linux all the policy information is under <installpath>/netbackup/db/class/<policyname>. The files there are ascii text. He could send those to you.

Also not sure why you’re saying he can only send “text”. Some mail filters complain about things that don’t have a .txt suffix but you can add that to anything. One thing you could do is pull up the information in the GUI (on Windows). Do a Ctrl-Print Screen then paste it into a MS-Word DOC and mail that. If the mail filter blocked .doc files he could simply at .txt to the end of the name of the attachment.

I’m a GUI GUY but I’m trying to help a friend troubleshoot his NBU setup. He made a change in the Master Server properties for VSP but then all of his jobs ran 2 or 3 times last night even though they were successful. Immediately I thought “Frequency” but his policy is set for a 4 day Frequency. I want him to send me the Master Server Properties setting and the only way for him to send it to me is in a text file. What is the command line that will pipe that information for me?

Thanks,

Randy
