Backup Exit Notify script

Opscenter is easier as far as my experience of using past 8 years. The regular opscenter is free which could retain your info for about 60 days. Quick info here : http://eval.symantec.com/mktginfo/enterprise/white_papers/b-nbu_7_opscenter_analytics_WP.en-us.pdf

Hi Vikram,

Here's an example backup_exit_notify.cmd for Windows:

@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

REM ************************************************************************************************
REM *    File:      backup_exit_notify.cmd
REM *    Purpose:  Called by NetBackup, when backup jobs complete.
REM *
REM *    Vers    Date        Who    Description
REM *    ----    ----        ---    -----------
REM *    v0.01    23-APR-2015    sdo    First draft.
REM ************************************************************************************************
REM *    Disclaimer
REM *    ----------
REM *    This script was developed and tested using:
REM *        - Windows 2008 R2 SP1
REM *        - NetBackup Server v7.6.0.4
REM *
REM *    This script is not endorsed, nor has it been tested, by Symantec.  Neither the author, nor
REM *    Symantec, shall accept any liability from any harm, loss, or damage caused by the use
REM *    and/or mis-use of this script, either in its original form, or in a modified form.  Use of
REM *    this script in its original, or modified, form is entirely at the end user's own risk.
REM *    This script is furnished on an example basis only, and may not be suitable for any given
REM *    environment.  
REM ************************************************************************************************
REM *    Sharing
REM *    -------
REM *    This script is free to share and modify, as long as this entire header section is kept with
REM *    the script, and maintained and updated appropriately as any changes are made.
REM ************************************************************************************************
REM *    Notes
REM *    -----
REM *    1) Mutiple instances of this script could be instantiated concurrently by NetBackup at any
REM *       given time.
REM *
REM *    2) Therefore this script has to somehow make its own working file names unique.
REM *
REM *    3) Hence we use a double random number in an attempt to make our working file names unique.
REM *
REM *    4) When this script is run by NetBackup, then it runs as root, which in Windows means that
REM *       this script runs a "NT_System_Authority".
REM *
REM *    5) Therefore, when this script runs, the value in `!temp!` will probably point towards:
REM *        C:\Windows\Temp
REM *
REM *    6) Which means that if this script has a bug, or the call to bperror fails, or the call to
REM *       the emailer fails, then small temporary files will begin to accumulate in the folder
REM *       pointed to by `!temp!`, i.e. files will begin to accumulate in:
REM *        C:\Windows\Temp
REM *
REM *    7) NetBackup does not wait for the completion of this script, and therefore does not check
REM *       for, nor take any action based upon, the final exist status of this script.

.

You'll need to adjust the call to 'blat' to call your email routine instead.

HTH.
