VERITAS NetBackup 4.5 Users Guide for UNIX
Progress Logs and Email Notifications
NetBackup progress logs provide information on the progress of a NetBackup operation. These logs also indicate the success and failure of a NetBackup operation. For each user-directed operation, NetBackup can be configured to create a separate progress log file. You can delete the log files when they are no longer needed. For more details on creating log files, refer to “Checking Progress of Operations” on page 98 for xbp or “Checking Progress of Operations” on page 74 for bp. For more details on log files for the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface, refer to “Viewing the Progress of Backups and Restores” on page 30.
The NetBackup server can be configured to deliver email notifications to the client user on the status of the client user’s NetBackup operations. Refer to the NetBackup System Administrator’s Guide for UNIX or the NetBackup System Administrator’s Guide for Windows for details on configuring the server for email notifications.
Backup and Archive Windows
NetBackup can be configured to allow user-directed backups or archives to occur only during specific time periods, usually referred to as windows. For example, if your window is from 8 am to 6 pm, you will not be able to back up or archive at other times. The NetBackup administrator defines these windows during server configuration. For more information, refer to the NetBackup System Administrator’s Guide for UNIX or the NetBackup System Administrator’s Guide for Windows.
