command: bperror
Hello, I noticed when trying to execute the command bperror -client clientname -d startdate -e enddate ecc, that the output only shows backup with a maximum of 5 days before the specified end date....

open java UI and navigate to
Host properties -> master server -> properties -> logging and check the retention value
if you need the bperror to report more days you have to adjust this setting. But it will alter the retention of all logs in netbackup
Hi manmah
Further to StefanosM reply - the bperror command parses the log files located in <INSTALL_DIR>\NetBackup\db\error. The log files are of the format log_<ctime>.
If you need to look at historical logs and have a backup of this area (the catalog backup includes this folder), you can restore the files to their original location and run your bperror command with a longer timeframe (if you do this you may want to restore to a different location first and copy to the original as the system may purge them again).
Cheers
David
