About the BPDBJOBS_OPTIONS environment variable
The BPDBJOBS_OPTIONS environment variable provides a convenient method to
set job retention options with a script. The bpdbjobs process determines how long
to retain a job by checking for the BPDBJOBS_OPTIONS environment variable. If
present, BPDBJOBS_OPTIONS overrides the bp.conf settings.
The following options can be used to determine the length of time NetBackup
retains jobs. The options should be entered in lower case in the BPDBJOBS_OPTIONS
environmental variable.

A script (cleanjobs) was used in the following example. You can copy the script
directly from this document and changed as needed.
■ The first line specifies how long to keep unsuccessful jobs (24 hours) and
successful jobs (five hours).
■ The second line specifies the path to the bpdbjobs command. Indicate the
correct location of bpdbjobs in the.bat file. In this example, NetBackup was
installed in the default location:
■ setenv BPDBJOBS_OPTIONS "-keep_hours 24 -keep_successful_hours 5 -clean"
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpdbjobs ${*}
