EMC Replication Manager (RM) integration with NetBackup

Hello,

I’m looking for a way to integrate EMC Replication Manager with NetBackup:
1. Should NetBackup call Replication Manager or should Replication Manager call NetBackup?
2. If a snapshot bis taken by Replication Manager fails, how can NetBackup be notified not to run
    the backup?
3. How can I keep: Yearly, Monthly & Daily backups?

Thanks in advance,
Ron.

EMC Replication Manager (ERM) calls netbackup, via running commandline netbackup commands to kick of the required policy (with required retention, etc) as a post replication script. If the replication fails the backup script is not run.
ERM is the scheduler here so if a job fails you won't see any job or any errors in NetBackup so you need to ensure ERM is also monitored or configured to alert on failures.
