Look for a field called Backup Type (not Job Type). If the data is
Scheduled, it fired according to it's policy scheduler. If it's Immediate,
it is a manual backup fired by the Big Shiny Button.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Question for the forum: how can I tell if a backup was
kicked off with the scheduler or if it was done "manually"
HP-UX rp5470 11i, NBU 3.4.1
I am trying to unwind a backup frequency problem, in which a backup that is
scheduled to run daily at 22:00 is running twice a day sometimes, sometimes
really-really late (although the priority is equal to that of the other
backups at that timeslot), and did run six times a couple of days ago. In
order to separate operational error from setup problems I need to see
whether the backup was kicked off when scheduled or it was operations
hitting the shiny button over and over. I cannot use the bpsched log since
we rotate them each two days and the worst of it happened four days ago. Is
there a database field I can fish out with a NBU command or is this
information NOT stored in the database?
Thanks!
