Ok If I am understanding you right, I create a policy on the Netbackup
master and add the server name and directory etc to be backed up. Have
this policy be deactivated. Then have the DB server run the bpbackup
pointing to the policy on the netbackup master? Is this right? Sorry for
the extra questions but we currently run the DB backups from the
master/media server and now you are suggestions to have the DB server
kick off the backup. just want to make sure I am clear on this point as
we have not done anything like this yet. Both the master/media server
and the DB server are Solaris based.
=20
But I am still not clear on how this is going to prevent the failed job
from running again on the media/master netbackup server?
Thanks!

You would have to create a user schedule in the policy the client is in.
Then on the client, you will need to schedule a bpbackup command to run
with the appropriate command parameters. This is pretty common for
database backups. In one of our account, we submit most of our db jobs
this way because we need to run some processing before the backup runs.
=20
The bpbackup command will look something like this:
=20
bpbackup -L <progress log> -p <policy> -s <schedule> -c <Client to be
backed up> -S <master> -f <filelist.txt> or you can just list the file
or folder to be backed up on the end. Check the syntax on the command to
be sure I'm right.

Start the backup from the client. It will only run once, sucessfull or
not.

Ok. I have been requested by one of our DBA folks to not retry a backup
for a DB where the backup has failed the first time through. The retry
setting is global so I cannot turn it off that way. Does anyone have any
ideas on how I can have Netback not to retry a failed backup?
