Aren,

Check your bpsched log. For the manual backups should see " (IM) " for =
immediate backup and " (REG) " for the scheduled backup.

If it was started manually you should see something similar to the =
following when the backup finished:

HP-UX rp5470 11i, NBU 3.4.1=20
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!=20
