Hi ALL, We have manually offline around 200 clients in NBU using GUI. Some of my junior employees have made some clients online and now it is vey tough for me to check which are offline clients and date. Can anybody please provide me the command/script to check which clients are in offline state and the online date? Please it is my humble reuqest.

Try this one for i in `sudo bpclient -All -L|grep -i "client name"|awk '{print $3}'`;do echo -e `echo $i;sudo bpclient -client $i -L|egrep -i "offline|online at"`|grep -i "yes";done

bpclient -All -L |grep -e "Client Name:" -e "Offline:" |sed 'N;s/\n/ /;P;D;'

Hi, It's not possible to get the date from which the client was online, we just get to know wheather a client is online or offline.

Did you try the command ? Did it do what you expected ?

command or script

check the modification time of the config file at ...\netbackup\db\clients\client_name\

if you have not do any other changes, you have a good change to get the time and date you want.

why dont you keep that result in notepad or excle and seperate it as per your requirement..

Nicolai gave you best command that compleates 90% of your work.

you just need to sort the things how you want..

and there is no way to find the dates about the client offline and online unless no once changed the client config after the ofline or online

Hi,

You may try this command which will give you output like

Client Name: win23 Offline: Yes

./bpclient -All -L |grep -e "Client Name:" -e "Offline:" |sed 'N;s/\n/ /;P;D;' | grep -i yes

Note : As mentioned in earlier post "Its not possible to get the Date or time when the server was online or offline"
