    You have not defined a PATH variable, so you need to specify the full path to bperror command.

    Error “C:\ALJScripts\Backup_Scripts>bperror -backstat -by_statcode -U -hoursago 24  1>>

    "C:\ALJScripts\Logs\status.txt"

    'bperror' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

    operable program or batch file.”

    attach is the script error

    Or ...

    put the full path in the script.

    Eg

     

    echo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > %LOGFILE%
    echo Summary Report by Status Code >> %LOGFILE%
    echo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ >> %LOGFILE%

    C:\Progra~1\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\bperror -backstat -by_statcode -U -hoursago 24 >> %LOGFILE%

    I don't understand why people don't set the PATH variable on the OS - I sit on webex and watch people type in long paths every time they run a command.

    You could set the path to the command as a variable in the script .

    eg

    set ADMINCMD="C:\Progra~1\Veritas\NetBackup\bin\admincmdt"

    Then use

    %ADMINCMD%\bperror -backstat -by_statcode -U -hoursago 24 >> %LOGFILE%

    That way, you don't have paths in the script (well, only once) and it's neater + will work on any machine.

    To set the paths, see part A in here
