Extract Policy Information

[hygorct]

Hi everyone.

Is there an easy solution guys to extract all the info from a policy into an 
easy to read word format or excel? 

Info I ideally want to catch is 

policy name 
backup window 
clients 

any help would be apprecaited 

Thanks 

ps.: using NetBackup 7.6

Is the command line output good enough for you?

\netbackup\bin\admincmd\bppllist <policyname> -L 

Quite readable to me...

I prefer bppllist with -U to get schedules in user-friendly format.

You can take a look at following post where Satish has come up with a policy parser which can be used to export policy inoformation in Excel format.

Hello SymGuy-IT,

I just tried to access the link provided and I got an:

Access Denied

If you are already logged in and still can't access the page, you don't have permission to view the page--contact the person that gave you the link to see if there is an error.

 Could you plz help on getting the policy parser?

Kind regards,

Just replace www-secure.symantec.com in the URL with  www.veritas.com. 

It will redirect to the correct VOX URL.
