Need to run a script on the Master server when each backup job starts. I tried parent_start_notify and found that it only runs for policies that have Allow Multiple Data Streams checked. It seems to me that there should be some script that can be run reliably on the master every

[Veritas-bu] Backup over network, restore via SAN drives

2009-08-25 Thread hackkira
It's all about media servers. If you advancement over the arrangement to a specific media server and ambition to restore from a altered media server (in this case with absolute admission to the drives), again you can move the accompanying media to the added media server. _

Correct, backup_notify is not what I'm looking for because it runs when a backup job completes, which backup_exit_notify is already doing quite reliably on the Master server. Having something do the same, but on my various Media servers, does not help. I was looking for a script to run on the

[Veritas-bu] Catalog Archiving

2009-08-25 Thread Tschida, Tom (STP)
Is anyone using this feature within NetBackup? I recently found out about it, but it's been around since 4.5 Our catalog is approaching 1 TB in size and this looks like a good solution, as long as there are no gotchas. Just curious how it's working for people. Thanks in advance. Tom Tschida

[Veritas-bu] Netbackup 5.1 MP5

I know I know it is not supported anymore and we are trying to upgrade but business reasons do not permit it at this time. That being said we have an issue with 5.1 MP5 and Oracle Rman backups. Seems every day we get jobs in the activity monitor that have a PID and a Client Name but nothing else.

Thanks Wayne but it is more complicated than that. We have 20-25 Rman Database that backup fine in this environment but these rouge entries are for the same 20-25 Rman Backups. We just can't figure out where they are Getting started from since there is no policy name associated with the PID...

If using the scripted rman procedure, you can specify policy/class and schedule in the allocate channel stmt(s) to cause the backup server to use the ones you want. I can give example of syntax, if required. Also, this can happen if the client nodename is not exactly the same as what's defined in

that's waaay to complicated for a simple email. There's a whole manual on vaulting - probably best to dig into that. Simply put, though, it's the automated duplication, ejection, reporting of backup images and tapes. I use it to create scheduled jobs that destage backups from disk-storage
