[Veritas-bu] NBU 6.0 shows Backup Schedule - in Activity Monitor

2007-03-12 Thread Alexander Skwar
Hello.

Last week, I installed NBU 6.0 MP4 on a Solaris 10 server. On
the weekend, backup jobs ran. Now I'm having a look at the
Activity Monitor and see:

http://serv2.imagehigh.com/view.php?id=5338712_NBU%206.0%20-%20Backup%20Schedule%20with%20Name%20-.gifpath=/imgss

For example, note the backup jobs with Job ID 27 and 28. I started
those backups by running:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bpbackup -i -p Unix_FS-Snapshots -s Weekly -h winds06 
-w

As soon as I issued this command, the Job IDs 27 and 28 showed up.

Why are there 2 Backup Jobs shown? Why is the schedule name set to
- in one of them?

Thanks a lot,

Alexander Skwar

In NBU6.0 you will see that, AFAIK the - is the parent job which tells 
you a lot of verbose information, the second is the actual one that goes 
to the media server and shows the tape mounting, etc.

[Veritas-bu] W2K3 (Standard or Enterprise)

2007-03-12 Thread Scott Jacobson
Recommendations for a Master Server;
 
Windows 2003 Standard Edition
or 
Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition (64)
 
In a 5.1 environment (eventually going to 6.0 MP4+) are there comments on using 
one of the above OS's over the other?
 
Thanks,
Scott

Standard is fine unless you are looking to do something else (like
clustering) with the system, or have more than 4GB of ram or 4
processors.  Worst case scenario you can always upgrade standard to
enterprise in place.  All our media and master servers are Windows 2003
Std w/ 4GB RAM and 2 Dual Core Intel Processors (32bit.)

Forget checking the sched log shudder. bpconfig is your friend. =)

*NULL* 30 12 15 2 14 12 0 0 900 12 24 0 0 4

You want your script to check field 2 for the wakeup interval. You may
want to check the 'backup tries' field as well (field 5) to make sure
it's larger than 0.

Hi all

Its been a while , hope you are all well.

Quick Q which someone might be able to answer straight off the bat.

We had a situation where the wake up interval was set to 0, probably due
to some planned work however this was not changed back out of error and
therefore all scheduled backups failed understandably.

Want to put a quick script together to check the bpsched log to confirm
bpsched is in actual fact waking up scheduling jobs.

Need I say 5.1, as the bpsched log is huge can anyone point out the text
I'm looking for to save me trawling ?

Much appreciated

Dave Clooney
