We're down to destaging every 2 hours. This is as low as it has ever
been. When we were on NBU 5.1MP6 we were destaging between 4-6 hours
with 0 failed jobs. It doesn't seem to add up to me, I've also run
checks against dead images on the DSSU's. Out of 6 DSSU's and thousands
of images, only 6 showed up as being abandoned.

Re: [Veritas-bu] old policies
My standard is to make a policy that never runs named ARCHIVED and put the clients there. If clients are not in a policy they do not show up in various lists, NB should scan the images directory for them but does not... It is also easier when installing to put them in a policy that does not run on a schedule so adding and testing is simplified. -- Message: 2 Date: Wed, 1 Sep 2010 07:49:29 -0700 (PDT) From: Carlos Alberto Lima dos Santos carlos_lis...@yahoo.com.br Subject: [Veritas-bu] Res: Deleting policies To: VERITAS-BU@MAILMAN.ENG.AUBURN.EDU VERITAS-BU@MAILMAN.ENG.AUBURN.EDU Message-ID: 669254.40566...@web52403.mail.re2.yahoo.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Delete policies do not affect the images backups, but?you need remember the client name when?you need a restore to find the images.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Email Notifications - Changed after 6.5.6
The upper one looks like those from the ‘notify’ scripts on /usr/openv/netbackup/bin. They get overwritten which is a pain. I also discovered that at 6.5.6 some get extra parameters related to multi-stream jobs. Amusingly one gets I think 7 parameters now, checks it has at least 6, and the comment says 5… If you used to get them then you had uncommented the lines at the end that have the mail commands. The logs that are mailed are otherwise overritten by the next job. They are not I think always overwritten, so you may not have seen it before. Somewhere in the documents I do recall it warns of this and you should save them. Luckily it does of course save them itself in the tar file it keeps to support backing out the patch. I recovered our custom ones from there, and at that point found that the underlying template had changed. As we run both 6.5.6 and 6.5.4 that is a bore as I now need 2 variants or more customisation, as they get called with different numbers of parameters. The lower one I also get but that is from the ‘client sends email’ or ‘server sends email’ settings in the server properties.

Win2k3 SP2 Ent + NBU 6.5.6 Master, Media and all clients. It all went on well (Originally 6.5.3) apart from BMR Boot Server still showing 6.5.3, although I will look into that later by reapplying the update pack. But main problem is notification of emails seemed to have changed. I used to get all emails, regardless of status detailing this Tue 09/07/2010 07:10 - Tue 09/07/2010 07:10CLIENT: SQL Tue 09/07/2010 07:10POLICY: SQL_SERVER Tue 09/07/2010 07:10 SCHEDULE: SERVER_FULL Tue 09/07/2010 07:10 SCHEDULE TYPE: FULL Tue 09/07/2010 07:10STATUS: 0 Tue 09/07/2010 07:10STREAM: 0 Tue 09/07/2010 07:10 - But since the update, I am now only getting emails with status 1 or higher and they look like this in the email Backup on client FILE001 for user root by server MyBackup was partially successful. Policy = TEST_BACKUP Schedule = Test_Incr_Backup File list - C:\Colours.reg For the life of me, I have checked my backup_exit_notify.cmd and nbmail.cmd and I even have the original versions prior to the update, and yet these have not changed.
