Job Type Information

[backup-botw]

I do quite a bit of reporting against my backup environment via an application called Splunk. I was looking at setting up some replication reports, but for some reason I don't see replication listed as a job type.

Is this listing outdated or am I missing something?

What version of Netbackup ?

[backup-botw]

Netbackup version is 7.6.0.2

Replication to remote site is actually a duplication job as well.

In NetBackup v7.6.0.1 - the bpdbjobs -most_columns, or -all_columns - for a replication job, the job type number shows as '20'.  Is this what you were after?

from "man" bpdbjobs. Duplication is job type 4 and type 20 replication.

 field2 = Job type

  0=backup, 1=archive, 2=restore, 3=verify, 4=duplicate, 5=phase 1 or phase 2 import, 6=catalog backup,
  7=vault duplicate, 8=label tape, 9=erase tape, 10=tape request, 11=clean tape, 12=format tape,
  13=physical inventory of robotic library, 14=qualification test of drive or robotic library, 15=catalog
  recovery, 16=media contents, 17=image cleanup, 18=LiveUpdate, 20=Replication (Auto Image Replication),
  21=Import (Auto Image Replication), 22=backup From Snapshot, 23=Replication (snap), 24=Import (snap),
  25=application state capture, 26=indexing, 27=index cleanup, 28=Snapshot, 29=SnapIndex,
  30=ActivateInstantRecovery, 31=DeactivateInstantRecovery, 32=ReactivateInstantRecovery,
  33=StopInstantRecovery, 34=InstantRecovery

Thank you all for the responses! That is indeed what I was looking for. I can then tie that into the Splunk application so it knows what the job type number is equal to.
