NetBackup vault reports
- 4 years ago
I have just checked my NBU documentation folders - the latest Vault manual is NetBackup81_AdminGuide_Vault.pdf.
In chapter 9 - Administering Vault, there is a section called : About setting up email.
Extract:
Depending on your computing environment, you may have to configure NetBackup
or your computing environment so that notification email from NetBackup functions
properly.
On UNIX systems, NetBackup uses the sendmail mail transfer agent to send email.
If sendmail is not installed, you must install it and configure your environment so
it functions correctly.
On Windows systems, NetBackup uses the nbmail.cmd script (in
install_path\VERITAS\NetBackup\bin\goodies) on the NetBackup master server
to send email. For email notifications, NetBackup passes the email address, subject,
and message to the script. NetBackup then uses the mail program that is specified
in the script to send email. For instructions on configuring the script, see the
comments in the nbmail.cmd script. Default NetBackup behavior: nbmail.cmd does
not send email.
Note: If you use the Blat email client to deliver email on Windows systems, include
the -mime option on the blat command in the nbmail.cmd script. That ensures the
Vault reports are mailed correctly.
