Hello,
There are several options.
Savegrp log does have logs as the backup is progressing.
Messages log mainly has Media, index etc 
Deamon log has logs on the  Server.
If you enable various Notification including owner notification you will 
have completion reports, if you were to start a savegrp with additional 
logging option ( Could be costly in terms of server resources including 
diskspace) you will pick up more info.
Lastly, via scripting you could list the groups that are running and their 
progress, same info is displayed in GUI but someone have to monitor it.
External tools may offer more capabilities, such as networker reporter, 
tektools,EMC Dashboard etc.
HTH

Save set messages question






Im very new to networker so forgive me if this is a simple question.

I am trying to read the messages generated under the Completed 
Successfully section in real time via a batch script.

Background:
Networker 7.4
I have multiple save sets under a job which takes 10 hours to complete. 
Warnings in the Messages field could be generated at any time but I wont 
know about them until the Savegroup completion email is sent which does 
not give me enough warning.

What I have found is that the info in the Messages field is not written to 
the messages file until after the entire group is completed, I would like 
to get this info in real time

I already have a script that can parse through the messages file and email 
me any info I want out of it but as I said above, the info isn't written 
until the entire group is complete, which is too late for my purposes.

Thanks for any help
