Netbackup uses a combination of Policy name and archive bit. If you
restart broken jobs within another policy next time policy 1 will not
recognize that the jobs was already done.

Betreff: [Veritas-bu] Question on Policies


Guys
A quick question again about Policies
 
Scenario: One Policy does Weekly Full backups and Cum Incr. - Policy
Name is SERVER 1
 
I have created a 2nd Policy named SERVER1_MANUAL, same settings as
SERVER1, but this time not specified any drives \ folders to backup.
 
If a stream fails on the FULL Backup in the SERVER1 Policy, could I
enable the 2nd policy to backup the stream that failed?
 
Although this would work, I am starting to think that when the SERVER1
Policy runs an incremental, it will treat the streams that failed the
full backup as a full backup and continue to do so until a Full Backup
has run at the end of the week.
 
Does that make sense? :-) Any guidance on this would be great, as I want
to narrow down how many policies I have.
 
Finally, if I get a failed stream, is there a way to KICK OFF just a
single stream if the window has closed? What I do is kick off a MANUAL
FULL, and kill the streams that I dont need a full backup of.
