proc_netbackup

Informational alert: proc_NetBackup CRIT - 47 processes (ok from 2 to 4)

Alert is kepping initating for linux master server.

proc_netbackup is not running. May i know what it is and is it required to run.

 

 

 

 

  • No sure about Nicolai, but I have never seen this message. 
    So, I will not be able to tell you how to solve this.

    You need to find out from the monitoring software where this message is coming from.
    Maybe the software is 'complaining' about the number of NBU processes.

    I do not see any problem with the NBU processes.
    The message also seems to be 'Informational', not an error.

  • I see nbatd running, are you using Netbackup Acess Control ?

  • Looks like a custom error message from monitoring system - proc_netbackup is probably short name for "Processes Netbackup"

    Logon to the master server can run bpps -a , then verify with this tech note 

    http://www.veritas.com/docs/100002166

    Note - this tech note is for netbackup. If running a higer version there may be additional processes.

      This is the output. I can see only error in last line.

      Please help out if you find any difference.

       

      Does proc_netbackup is not separate process? i thought it is.

      As per your update i came to know that if any daeomn/process didn't run this alert will appear. Does my understanding right?

       

  • Where from do you get this error message ?

    e.g. /var/log/messages, opscenter, monitoring software etc.

    proc_netbackup is not a seperate Netbackup process.

        We doesnt have support because it was 7.6 version. Looking forward for solution for this alert.

         

        Can we ignore alert or does need to check any other logs. Please suggest.
