my top two picks would be Aptare Storage Console or
Veritas Backup Reporter. Either of those will meet your requirements, are
fairly intuitive to use, have a pretty high degree of customization, and produce
a lot of nice canned reports.

Greetings,
We have been using Aptare for the past 5 years. I
highly recommend it. There are no
agents installed on any clients or media servers. It comes with Oracle built in,
no extra purchase needed. The only
agents that are needed are installed on the Netbackup Master Server. They
are used to gather the data from the
Master and send it to the portal server. No JAVA gui's are needed, it is
accessed with a Web browser, IE or Firefox work just fine. You can run customized reports and have them
e-mailed. Their support is excellent. I
would visit www.aptare.com for futher information.

Subject
| [Veritas-bu] Reporting Tool for
NetBackup |
|
All,
I am in the process of looking at various reporting
tools for NetBackup. I just completed looking at backupVISUAL from agite
software. It was a very nice application.
I guess I wonder what everybody else thinks of the
reporting tool that they use?
Also what other tools should I look at?
Things I want to avoid:
1) JAVA based GUIs
2) Ones that require me to purchase a
database application like ORACLE. 3) One that requires I load on each netbackup
client 4) One that
requires I load on each media server.
Any opinion on backupVISUAL or on any other
application would be appreciated.
