[Veritas-bu] command line reporting
2005-09-13 13:02:40
I have heard people mention Aptare before. It probably would be a good tool
to use. The problem is, I don't have the time to install,configure, and
support another tool of that nature. Maybe one day...
Anyway, I finally wrote a script a while back for reporting. We have a
multitude of various customers and separate each customer's policy by a 4
letter, somewhat of a code that begins their policy name. That way, I can
run my script for reporting and parse each customer report by the 4 letter
descriptor in the policy, and send output to each customer every morning
before I even get out of bed. They like the output so I'm happy.
I've included some of the output from the report produced by my script, with
explanations.
I changed the policy names to xxx. By VA rules, I can't provide that
information to the public. The SERVER names have also been changed. Any
status code, other than 0 or 71 automatically products NB explanation, since
this exact report is mailed to all customers.
This is what my ouput looks like:
Tue Sep 13 07:30:00 CDT 2005
STATUS CLIENT POLICY SCHED SERVER TIME
COMPLETED
0 client xxx Full_Infin NBserver
09/12/2005 08:01:40
0 client xxx Full_Infin NBserver
09/12/2005 09:17:48
0 client xxx Full_Infin NBserver
09/12/2005 09:18:22
41 ckient xxx Diff_Infin NBMaster 09/12/2005
09:23:31
The status code 41 means:
network connection timed out
The server did not receive any information from the client for too long a
period of time.

Buy a tool.... We finally gave up on Veritas and are currently in the
process of acquiring Aptare StorageConsole. It gives you more
information on backups than you'd ever really want to know ;) And since
I set my manager up with a login, I don't ever have to hear from him
anymore on backup failure issues b/c now he knows exactly what is going
on...

I have used this and still don't like it. Having to edit the bp.conf to
manipulate reporting is not a good idea, not to mention, if there is
more then one person doing this, it can affect all the backups if a
mistake is made.

It didn't go away, it just became more inconvenient:

In NB 3.4, you cat still use bpdbjobs, but that went away in 4.X. So for
now, you can use bpdbjobs -report -format_file jobsformat2. The
jobsformat2 is a copy of a file that formats the Activity Monitor. This
file can be found: /opt/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd and the file name
is jobsformat.
you can save it to another name, make changes, then run bpdbjobs calling
this file with the -format_file flag.
# cat jobsformat

Hello,
I am using netbackup businessserver 3.4GA and would like to know if
there is any command line equivalent to the activity monitor GUI details
tab. I would like to get an email with the detail status of completed
jobs. The details tab gives me information such as tapes used, time
started and finished, amount of data backed up. Thank you.
