Is D:\data something special (like a disk attached at a mountpoint or a SAN
volume)?
You might be able to do this as your backup selections:
ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES
D:\data

Hi all. I'm trying to find a solution to a monitoring problem we
have. I would like to create a mechanism to alert when a backup fails
but to only send one alert if multiple streams from a backup fail.
For instance if c: and d: both fail for a particular box, I only want
1 alert. Also if a job
Try the parent_end_notify
This only runs when the parent job ends.
If any of the children die the parent gets that error.
But if all the children are good the parent gets a 0.

Hi All
We have the following scenario:
3 local volumes on Windows 2003 server:
C:\
D:\
D:\data
Policy is configured to backup ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES.
C and D are getting backed up, not D:\data.
Admin Guide says NOT to use ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES and Cross Mount Points
together.
How is
Have you tried blat.exe?

Looks like parent_end_notify does what I need for multistreamed jobs.
It doesn't get called for jobs without multistreaming though. I guess
having an environment with policies that have multistreaming on and
off makes this harder.
For the other questions that were asked...this is NB6.5.2 and
I have documented some steps that may be helpful.
If possible do this when no backups are running. You may need to
de-activate all policies. This should give you a rough idea of the
steps needed.
Environment:
STK SL8500 with LTO2 tape drives, controlled by ACSLS server running
version 7.1.
Thanks everyone for all your valuable replies!

In my environments, there are already some policy priority settings in place.
For the most part, I would like to clear those and make use of default
priorities... but I'm hazy on what clear means.
The bpplinfo man page says:
-priority priority
The priority of this policy

After drive replacement, I have used tpconfig command and selected the
drive and then update options to refresh the serial number. This assumes
that all other info is the same.
Probably the same as what Justin listed below, just the manual way.

Rusty, your answer on the first question doesn't really get at what I want. I
want to NOT override the default settings. For example, if I change the default
priority for backups to 5 (it's initially set to 0), but have 0 for a
policy's priority setting, at which priority is the policy
Gabe,
For your first question, if I'm reading it right, any policy set to 0 has
the lowest priority. When creating a policy, the default priority is 0
unless specified otherwise. I think that the two descriptions are saying
the same thing differently. Symantec has alluded in the past to

In my DR site upgrade went fine.
In my prod site it went kind of ok.

they run fine.

Hello All,
Do you know it is okay to use mpxio with NetBackup?
When mpxio is enable, sgscan can not see the changer.
Do you know any known issue for this?

Travis,
I have three possible solutions for you - I think. I haven't tested the
example I am providing here, so you'll probably need to do a little debugging.
1. Run BPDBJOBS at a regular interval, and parse for jobs of type backup, whose
parentid is equal to its own id, with a status greater
Remove the media from the L700e and have NetBackup inventory the robot. This
will put all the tapes into standalone.
Then put the tapes into the SL500 and inventory the new robot, NetBackup will
see the tapes in that new robot and adjust the locations accordingly.
This of course assumes you
Your don't alert if retry was successful automatically excludes the
idea of a real-time monitor.
It's a bit like saying Don't alert if you're going to succeed in the
future.
We solved this by creating an after-the-fact monitor for our backups -
it searches the bpdbjobs output daily and parses
Ok, take two.
There has to be a value for the policy priority, period. If you do not
specify one when creating the policy, it will accept the default value of
whatever is in the Default Job Priorities list. If you create a new policy
with the GUI, it automatically fills in the value based on
I guess I only had two possible solutions. :)
(Was thinking of using bperror in a fashion similar to bpdbjobs - but I don't
think there is enough info in the output to filter since last run.)
