Re: [Veritas-bu] Netbackup reports

We got around this by modifying a built in script for NBU. We are running NBU on RedHat but this should work for Solaris without any changes and Windows with a few changes. Copy /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/media_deassign_notify to /usr/openv/netbackup/bin and make the changes noted below

Re: [Veritas-bu] Linux backup issue

We don't use ALL_LOCAL_DRIVES on our Unix and Linux systems. We specify / (root filesystem) for our OS backups then use exclude lists to leave out the things we don't want. Usually our databases and applications have their own policies starting at their mount points OR aren't backed up because

Re: [Veritas-bu] Linux backup issue
