We use the GUI Agent. We have SQL DBA's but I prefer online backups. Tough, reliable, proven. And to get the SQL DBA to fully understand how the process works, they need to be involved and make them aware. Saves dumping to disk as alot of our DB's are large. -Original Message- From:

From what I'm reading, I'm thinking the NBU SQL Agent will work fine while interfacing with SAP SQL databases, and at the same time will allow us to maintain backup control (and SAP server disk space) by using SAP-scheduled backups going to NBU Disk Storage Groups, then to tape from there.

2010-11-12 Thread Bobby R Windle

Been looking at this myself. The image clean up is part of it. By default it is set to 12 hours and can go a low as 8 hours. A clean up will run after a restore if nothing else is running, or after a session of backups. But it is the bpexpidate -deassigempty that expires images. And this you

I think along with the below your also asking if you can run the cleanup of images manually rather than waiting for the twelve hour default, if so: \admincmd\bpimage -cleanup -allclients -sj judy_hinchcli...@administaff.com 11/12/2010 11:21 AM

A couple of years ago we had this in a cron job and would find backups occasionally failing with a status 228. I don't know if it was specific that the release we were running at the time but I'd suggest being careful about triggering these cleanups manually. .../Ed On Fri, Nov 12, 2010 at
