    use the parent notify - it ONLY runs on the master server and only with the parent starts or stops

    (parent_end_notify parent_start_notify)

    you have to put logic into it to test for

    # This script:

    # receives 5 parameters:

    # CLIENT - the client hostname

    # POLICY - the policy label

    # SCHEDULE - the schedule label

    # SCHEDULE_TYPE - the type of schedule: FULL INCR UBAK UARC

    # STATUS - the backup status for this job

    # STREAM - the backup stream number for this job always -1

    # must be executable by the root user

    # should exit with 0 upon successful completion


    example

     

    if [ $2 = "Hot_Catalog_Backup" ]

    then

    OUTF=/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/PARENT_END_CALLED.Hot_Catalog_Backup

    if [ -s $OUTF ]

    then

    /bin/rm -rf $OUTF

    fi

    if [ ! -f $OUTF ]

    then

    touch $OUTF

    fi

    echo ${dateStr} "-----------------------------" >> $OUTF

    echo ${dateStr} " CLIENT: $1" >> $OUTF

    echo ${dateStr} " POLICY: $2" >> $OUTF

    echo ${dateStr} " SCHEDULE: $3" >> $OUTF

    echo ${dateStr} "SCHEDULE TYPE: $4" >> $OUTF

    echo ${dateStr} " STATUS: $5" >> $OUTF

    echo ${dateStr} " STREAM: $6" >> $OUTF

    echo ${dateStr} "-----------------------------" >> $OUTF

    <do your thing here>

    cat $OUTF | mail -s "Netbackup parent end notify for Catalog" tosomeonewhocares@company.com
