Title: Message

told you not to back it up hot, I would imagine....like a database.

No reason you can't back it up and restore it if you stop the service while you're running the backup.....

The below will work.

 

However, Trend Micro told us not to backup their software with netbackup.  It would not restore.

 

We put the Trend Micro directory in our exclude lists.

Create a file called bpstart_notify.bat, and bpend_notify.bat in C:\program files\veritas\netbackup\bin (or wherever your netbackup client is installed.)

 

The "start" batch file will be run before a backup starts, and the end batch file will run after the backup completes.

Guys

In Arcserve, I was able to produce a small .cmd script to stop services for applications that was having trouble being written to while a backup was run.

 

Can I do the same sort of thing in Netbackup?

 

My problem is this; there is an application called TREND MICRO that I just seem to be unable to get Netbackup to backup!! the files are either reporting access denied or in use by another process.

 

I have not tried VSS yet, as this in itself has been very problematic (if anyone has suggestions on VSS in Netbackup, would love to share ideas on this!)

 

So I thought I would look at stopping the service while the backup runs and then re-start the service when the backup completes, regardless of its status (ie 0,1,196 ect)

 

Can anyone help? Master is Win2k3 and client is Win2k3

 

Thanks
