HI Thanks
I was looking from a Nokia backup and  restore point of view (Ipso+cp
backup)
I would imagine if i
 Know which process is invoked and how can we trace its success to know a
succesful backup has been done locally
 ps-aux | grep backup never shows up anything during manual or time of
scheduled  backup

and i also understand scheduled backup DOES NOT show up in cron ???? so my
crontab -l also drew a zip


(does it ever show up in ps-aux ???? or /var/log/messages on succesful
backup...we can see the transfer of backup BUT not local bakup
success/failure)

Any pointers appreciated
Hello,

the best is to search throuch the tcl script that is invoked by voyager to show the backup and restore page. I had a look at a 4.1, and the script invoked is /etc/backup with some flags.

if you do this, you'll probably find that the script invoked is :
/web/cgi-bin/backup_restore.tcl.

and if you search through this script for the backup command, here it is :
/etc/backup -f /var/etc/sched_backup_vars.sh

/etc/backup is a simple script, so you can read it, modify it (at your own risks), or run it in debug mode via sh -x
to see the details.

that means that the /var/etc/sched_backup_vars.sh is first populated with some entries
from the form in the html, then the backup is launched.

the backup default directory is /var/backup.

I guess from this point you can go on and run your own tests.

do a restore in a splat (assuming you're doing upgrade_export). if that
works, then you're set.
