And if you meant what  you want to find the start and end times of a group then 
you can find that information in the group completion notification emails or 
you can go to the NMC reports -> NetWorker Backup Status -> Group Details. 
Sorry, no idea about DPA, will suggest you to download the Admin guide from 
http://powerlink.emc.com .

Hello,

pools do not 'run'.
Pools are written by running groups.
So you have to check which groups write to a specific pool, then monitor 
the(se) group(s).

Objet: [Networker] Find what time pools start/finish?

Hi All,
I'm trying to find a way, either via mminfo or DPA to find out what times 
certain pools start and finish.  Our end goal is for scheduling purposes to see 
when the pool runs, how long it runs for and when it ends so we can schedule 
around things and perfect our backups. Anybody have any ideas?  i of course can 
not install anything so it would have to be either something via command line 
or through DPA. - We know nothing of how to use DPA, the one who used it and 
did everything through it is no longer with us and management insists we use it.
