Re: [Veritas-bu] How to identity Status of a backup using Netbackup CLI

What about piping bpdbjobs output to grep and filtering there? That will give you the jobID, which you can use in future commands.

I launch 'bpbackup' command in my program and it just gives the return code. There is no way to know the corresponding JobId.

Before I launch the next backup, I want to check the status of the Previous backup and make some decision.

'bpimagelist' command can be used with 'keyword' as filter so that I can search my backup job uniquely. Problem is, it only lists the Successful backups.

'bpdbjobs' command can be used to list out all jobs (successful, failed, in progress) but there is no way to uniquely find the backup job because it does not support filtering the result with 'keyword' attribute.

Any help is highly appreciated.
