My experience has shown that as soon as NetBackup starts for the
first time it runs a cleanup. Then, it will run a cleanup based on the
bpconfig value for “DB Cleanup Interval”, which is 12 by default.
So, assuming default value of 12, if you start NetBackup at
2:15pm, the next cleanup will run at 2:15am, then 2:15pm, etc.
We have the ability to force many parts of the cleanup
process, but I have not yet gotten a good single command to run the whole
cleanup process in its entirety.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] image cleanup process - run time
I understand Netbackup does a cleanup process on a regular bases when a job
fails or ends etc. Also
I understand a nightly cleanup process runs to expire images on disk etc.. What
time does this nightly cleanup
job kick off or better yet, how do I change this job to run at a specific time?
Thanks for the help.
