Its quite common for management or other teams asking for Netbackup Policies and A netbackup admin needs to keep these details updated every time there are changes done to the policy.

I found this need to automate this task which made me to write this tool.

Details:   Generates the Backup Policy Report

Input:  Provide the O/P of bppllist -allpolicies -U

Output:   Output the details of Backup policies in excel sheet

Rename the attached file to Policy List Parser.exe and Enjoy cool
Hope you all find it useful.

Thanks!

Hi Zeeshan,

Apologies, I saw your mail but couldn't respond due to work :(

The parser cannot handle any policy without schedule and hence it error out. 

I've removed such policy and generated the report. Hope it helps.

 

Thanks!

Hello Satkay,

Thank you for the reporting program.  Unfortunately, when I ran it and received a "Runtime error 62: Input past end of file". A check of the input file does not show any obvious issues.  See input file attached. Can you suggest anything?

Thanks,
Pat

Hi Satkay and All,

I tried to use "PolicyListParser_2_March_2015.exe" on my win7 (64 bit, Traditional Chinese) desktop, but always "show Run-time error '9': subscript out of range", have anyone can help idea what's wrong? Should i modify output txt or anything? Any inputs are appreciated.

Hi Jasonyang, The tool is tied to language as such it won't work on OS with language other than english.

If you still need it to be processed, either run it on machine with english as base language or provide the o/p to me & I can process it for you.

 

Thanks!

Satish
