I have an issue about Email Notifications.
I configured email notifications on all of our backup domains(9 backup domain in total including 6.5.4,7.0,7.1)...and it work well.
but yerterday I found that there is an issue in one of the backup domain.
Netbackup Version::VERSION NetBackup 7.0 running on LINUX_RH_X86
I configured email notification months ago via Java admin GUI and I indeed received some alerts for the failed jobs so I thought it's okay!
but I found yerterday it sends alerts only for 4 specific backup policies as below since I didn't receive any alerts for the yerterday's NDMP 99 error.
awodssqlvs_sql_db
awodssqlvs_sql_trans
awoltpsqlvs_sql_db
awoltpsqlvs_sql_trans
The policies above are relating to 2 clients AWOLTPSQLVS and AWODSSQLVS. Both of them are the virthual name for MSSQL 2-node clusters.
and I made some test also by terminating the running jobs manually and it sent alert for these 4 policies only.
I understand that it is supposed to send email notification for all the non-zero backup status..not for some specific backup policies.......
and I don;t find any issue for email notifications in other backup domains so far.
is there anybody who came across the same issue or know how to solve it ?
thanks very much in advance!

Ivy, what you're seeing is normal, because the format is different.
backup_exit_notify is the program that generates the BACKUP_EXIT_CALLED, and the email notification configured on GUI is actually reading that output file to "re-format" the syntax into what you usually see.
So what you get from *_exit_notify is what you see in BACKUP_EXIT_CALLED.

okay thanks
I will modify the backup_exit_notify to make the new format the same with the previous ones..........
