I consistantly named the parent job schedule "Parent.Job" and my child schedules "Child.Job"

I added logic to my "backup_exit_notify" scipt in the bin directory - under these lines:

# might want to mail this info to someone
	#
	# cat $OUTF | mail -s "NetBackup backup exit" someone_who_cares
	&nbsp;

I do NOT want an email if the error code is 0, 1, 71, 150, 800 or 191; and I do not want an email for a Child.Job, based on the backup type, I email the appropriate group

if [ $5 != 0 -a $5 != 1 -a $5 != 71 -a $5 != 150 -a $5 != 800 -a $5 != 191 -a $3 != "Child.Job" ]
	then
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; if /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bppllist $2 -U | grep "Policy Type" | grep MS-Window
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; then
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; cat $OUTF | /usr/bin/mailx -s "WINDOWS NetBackup Error Status $5, Policy $2, Client $1" \
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; operations&nbsp;windows
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; elif /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bppllist $2 -U | grep "Policy Type" | grep MS-Exchange
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; then
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; cat $OUTF | /usr/bin/mailx -s "EXCHANGE NetBackup Error Status $5, Policy $2, Client $1" \
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; operations&nbsp;windows
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; elif /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bppllist $2 -U | grep "Policy Type" | grep VMWARE

	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; operations&nbsp;windows

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; elif /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bppllist $2 -U | grep "Policy Type" | grep MS-SQL
	&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; then

Then you need to configure parent_end_notify script on the master.

See&nbsp;http://www.symantec.com/docs/HOWTO106055&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Thanks for your reply... the script is in bin folder... parent_end_called folder is getting updated everytime the backup completes. But i am not getting an email with the information...

Note: I am getting email from backup_exit_notify script if i enable it...

&nbsp;

marianne · Answer

Have you had a look at the contents of the script?

Can you see in bin directory if $OUTF is created?

OUTF=/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/PARENT_END_CALLED&nbsp;

The email section of the script is commented out - you need to customize it:

#
	# might want to mail this info to someone
	#
	# cat $OUTF | mail -s "NetBackup parent end notify" someone_who_cares

&nbsp;

nagavp · Answer

As i mentioned earlier, Yes OUTF is getting created...
	
	i tried the following.. i replaced the following line&nbsp;

@call %NB_MAIL_SCRIPT% someone_who_cares "NetBackup backup exit" %OUTF%

to&nbsp;

SendEmail
	blat %OUTF% -s %1:%7&nbsp;-t xxxx@company.com -i NetBackup
	-server mail.relay.com -q

But it didnt worked..&nbsp;

I tried&nbsp;

call %NB_MAIL_SCRIPT% xxxx.@company.com&nbsp;"NetBackup backup exit" %OUTF%&nbsp;

No luck

nagavp · Answer
