NetBackup & OPS center Database level backup

 

Does we need to take backup of netbackup master server/media servers & OPS center database level Backup.

If yes? how we will proceed for that or we need to clear any transaction logs or etc.., in this.

  • Yes - you need to run a Netbackup catalog backup (policy type) at least weekly (best daily)  to protect Netbackup EMM database and to clear or the Sybase transaction log.
