command to get the stat and end time of a client backup

Hi,

Can anybody know the command to get the stat and end time of a client backup .

  • try   bpdbjobs -all_columns | awk -F","  '{print $7, $9, $11, $10, $4}'

  • It is the 7th, 9th 11th 10th and 4th fields of the comma separate output of the bpdbjobs -all_columns command.

    However, the lines can be very long, and awk sometimes will not work.

     

    If I run bpdbjobs -most_columns - these are the first 11 columns

    384,0,3,237,womble_ad_disk,Full,*NULL*,,1333911123,0000000000,1333911123

    These are ...

    jobid,jobtype,state,status,class,schedule,client,server,started,elapsed,ended

    I think this is better :

    NOTE :  THIS WILL ONLY WORK ON UNIX ... (awk does not work on windows)

     bpdbjobs -most_columns |awk -F, '{print $1" "$5" "$6" "$9" " $11}'

    This command gives the 1, 5th, 6th, 9th and 11th fields which from the descriptions are :

    jobid  class/ policy  schedule  start time  end time

    The output looks like this :

     

    bpdbjobs -most_columns |awk -F, '{print $1" "$5" "$6" "$9" " $11}'
     
    384 womble_ad_disk Full 1333911123 1333911123
    383 womble_ad_disk Full 1333910914 1333910940

    375 CatBack_Disk Full 1333645255 1333645270
    374 CatBack_Disk Full 1333645222 1333645250
    373 CatBack_Disk Full 1333645201 1333645251
    372 CatBack_Disk - 1333645200 1333645270
     
    For some lines we see only a jobid and times, these are probably image cleanups,  jobid 372 is a parent job for the catalog backup, so there is no 'schedule' shown.
     
    Basically, you are not going to easily get a perfect output - but I think this is good enough  as it is very easy to read down and just pick out the lines that are relevant .
     
    To convert the times (the long numbers) you can use bpdbm -ctime <ctime>
     
    For example :
     
    bpdbm -ctime 1333911123
    1333911123 = Sun Apr  8 19:52:03 2012
