How can I use bpgetconfig -e

[Rene_Verhaeghe]

hello.

My environment is the following: Master server on HP-UX, client on Linus, both in version 7.1.0.4 of Netbackup.

I want to obtain the list of excluded and included directories for the backup.

I have started with a client where there are exclusion files created, and which create no backups problems.

When I try to execute a bpgetconfig from the master server, user root, the command works:

bpgetconfig bpecc0002vz.unix.banksys.be

When I use the command with and -e to obtain the exclude list data, it fails always (save user root):

-bash-3.2# bpgetconfig -e xxx.txt bpecc0002vz.unix.banksys.be

file read failed

All the standard poàrts between master ad client are opened. Furthermore, port 22 is opened on both direction.

What could be the cause of this problem?

[Andy_Welburn]

When I try to execute a bpgetconfig from the master server, user root, the command works:

bpgetconfig bpecc0002vz.unix.banksys.be

Warning, unknown configuration item (bpecc0002vz.unix.banksys.be)

It's not actually working as you think - it's pulling the info from the master & complaining about the "option" "bpecc0002vz.unix.banksys.be". If you ran the command again without that "option" you would get the same result.

Unfortunately I'm not in a position to check the correct syntax, but the command does require administrator privileges to run

[revarooo]

It's working perfectly. You just don't have an exclude list on the client, hence the "file read failed"

see my test below which proves this by using a test WITH an exclude_list and WITHOUT

# more /usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list
/tmp
/proc

# bpgetconfig -e xxx.txt testmaster
# cat xxx.txt
/tmp
/proc

# rm /usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list
# bpgetconfig -e xxx.txt testmaster
file read failed
 

[Rene_Verhaeghe]

No, I have checked before and there are non-mety exclude list:

[a113394@bpecc0002vz ~]$ ls /usr/openv/netbackup/ex*.*

/usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list.class_u_bas2_pcip_bxl.diffbkps /usr/openv/netbackup/exclude_list.class_u_bas2_pcip_bxl.fullbkps

[a113394@bpecc0002vz ~]$ cat /usr/openv/netbackup/ex*.*

/eccs_app

/eccs_data

/eccs_app

/eccs_data

[a113394@bpecc0002vz ~]$

But these are policy exclude list. It works when I do:

bpgetconfig -e xxx.txt bpecc0002vz.unix.banksys.be class_u_bas2_pcip_bxl.diffbkps

It is not what I expected (I hoped to obtain all the exclude list in one operation), but it will do.

Thank you for your hint.

[revarooo]

Lets see: ls -l /usr/openv/netbackup/ex*

[Will_Restore]

bpgetconfig -e xxx.txt bpecc0002vz.unix.banksys.be

file read failed

It works when I do:

bpgetconfig -e xxx.txt bpecc0002vz.unix.banksys.be class_u_bas2_pcip_bxl.diffbkps

Yes, this is the way the command works -  if no policy.schedule parameter it expects a file named 'exclude_list' (no suffix).  You can try the following to confirm this behaviour.

# cd /usr/openv/netbackup

# cp exclude_list.class_u_bas2_pcip_bxl.diffbkps  exclude_list

# bpgetconfig -e xxx.txt bpecc0002vz.unix.banksys.be

 (this works since it finds expected filename)

[revarooo]

ah I misread the above post. Yes that makes sense.
