You might write a script around bperror.  It's great for querying final job
status.  

I posted some code a few days ago with a report generator.  Look for subject
line, "Script to check backups were successful".

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Script help, bpdbjobs...


Hey all, I wrote a script using bpdbjobs to show me the status of only
the last 24 hours backups,
Then further broke it down to show me only failures for Unix and NT
clients.

However, if a job intitially has a failure, but then succeeds on the
second attempt, I still see the first failure.  That is okay, but does
anyone know of a command line way to see how many times a job was
attempted, or to only see the last attempt..?

Thanks,
Taylor
