> I am trying something sort of Nbu self service, In house web console for Netbackup
I believe a RESTful API for NBU is planned but I would not expect a full version to be back-ported to current versions. You are limited to interfacing with the NBU CLI right now. BR Andrew
You may want to look at NSS 'NetBack Self Service', if you are an 'NBU Complete' customer you already have entitlement to use it. NSS can be used as a standalone portal or as you want to use it to communicate with NetBackup from another application. NSS has its own API, this is complete and fully published and available now! I published an article on this recently https://vox.veritas.com/t5/NetBackup-Self-Service/NSS-API-support-collateral/td-p/840282
The NSS API is a high level API, so all the hard work is done for you, you just need to supply machine name and maybe protection type, the proposed NBU API is very low level and would require a significant project team to get it working and build out all the workflows, all of this is already done in NSS.
More than 50% of customers who are using NSS are using it to interface between their console/portal/application to NetBackup.
If you don't have 'NBU Complete' you can download a trialware copy, I have published this article with details https://vox.veritas.com/t5/NetBackup-Self-Service/Downloading-a-trial-copy-of-NSS-NetBackup-Self-Service/td-p/823662
