NetBackup failed job alerts

Hi All,

I need to setup an e-mail alert system in our environment for NetBackup ONLY FOR FAIELD JOBS. Currently we are receiving alerts for both failed & successful jobs.

I have gone through: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH64984 & have a query:

If I setup:

Global Attributes > Administrator's e-mail address &

Universal Settings > Client administrator's e-mail

both with different e-mail addresses, will I be getting only Failure alerts for Admin E-Mail address, or all the alerts ?

 

I am really not sure, how this gonna work, please help.

Your post matches the 3rd line in the 'Table of Effects' of TECH64984.

If this is your email address:

Global Attributes > Administrator's e-mail address

You will only receive email of failed jobs.

This needs to be config'ed on each Client:

Universal Settings > Client administrator's e-mail

Client Admin will receive emails for all jobs - successful and failed.

@ Marianne van den Berg: Table of Content specifies the setting of Admin email id on each client.

But we do have "Universal Settings" in Master Server Properties with Server sends email option.

Will that work in the way if I set 2 different email id's in both the Master Server Properties ?

A - In Global Attributes

B - In Universal Settings with Server sends mail

Will I receive, Failed alerts on A & All alerts on B ?

If I will make changes in Global Attributes, Do i need to restart the netbackup services ?
