How to configure NetBackup 7.1 to send email notification
- 13 years ago
Quick guide for you ...
download blat and copy it to the Windows\system32 directory so that it is in the path
run blat -install <your_smtp_servername> <your_emailaddress_that_sendmail>
In the \veritas\netbackup\bin\ directory you will find nbmail.cmd (or it may be in the bin\goodies\ directory - if so copy it to the bin directory)
Edit this so that the rem'd out line has the correct smtp server name (Warthog below) and sender name (NetBackup below) and remove the @REM:
@REM blat %3 -s %2 -t %1 -i NetBackup -server WARTHOG -q
Depending on what you want it to do you can then set this up under the Master, Media and Clients Host Properties - setting these as "Master Sends mail"
Do work through the guide but this gives you an idea.
Again depending on your version, the Hot Catalog backup e-mail gets sent when you copy the nbmail.cmd to the same directory and rename it as mail_dr_info.cmd but edit the line that has the -attach %4 on the end so that it attaches the DR file to the e-mail.
Hope this helps
