I see no reason why parent Notify would not work.
if the parent has 6 child jobs, and 2 children die on first attempt, but
successes on second attempt, and all other children are good on first attempt,
then the parent is good (0)
Only if a child fails on both attempts within that parent will the parent show
a failure.
Now for me, each child is allowed to try twice with that parent, but they are
also allowed to try again within the window.
So sometimes I might have a failure at 8 pm, but at 2 am a parent and 1 child
try it again and it works. That is the only issue I see.
But I see no reason why you could not test for a parent return code of anything
other than 1 and 150.
I have my parent_end_notify do a number of things.
This being one of them. I just have one email sent to me each morning telling
me the status of all the backup attempts (because I want to know how often the
first attempt fails) I have it set to run when the catalog finishes (unix).
rptdate=`cat /opt/openv/scripts/temp/date4dlyrpt`
mydate=`date +%w`
if [ $mydate == 1 ]
then
h=64
else
h=16

Subject: [Veritas-bu] The ending of a backup and the cutting of a Remedy ticket
Michael,
If I use the parent_end_notify script, what will make it so "not very stable"??
I plan on filtering at the Return Code level and route directly to Remedy via
an automated ticket if the RC > 1.
I'd like other's input on this as well as more of yours.
We are evaluating OpsCenter, but so far, I'm not really impressed with it. :o
