Hello all

I've found part of the answer - can anyone complete the picture?

I'm trying to detect when significant changes are made to the NetBackup
configuration, as a way of tracking administrator actions, and as a crude form
of change control.

I understand that there are two log directories on the master that help, from a
conversation with Ebon Nash at Compuware:

/opt/openv/netbackup/logs/admin          Traps information from the text-based
interface, bpadm
/opt/openv/netbackup/logs/bpjava-susvc   Traps information from the Java GIU,
jnbSA

Question is, can anyone tell me a way to capture similar events triggered from
the Windows Admin Console, as seen from the Master Server?

Alternatively, what processes have you adopted to manage change in your
NetBackup config? Feel free to email me direct and I'll summarise to the list.

Cheers
