bppllist command clarify

[Sid1987]

Hi Team,

 Need some clarification on bppllist command output, as per command guide -l gives output for scripting. In it SCHED with Field 2 defines below things 

 Field 2 - Backup type for the schedule. 0 = Full schedule, 1 = Differential incrementalschedule,2=Cumulativeincrementalschedule,3=Userbackup schedule, 4 = User archive schedule

However in -U it shows different for example type as Application Backup. How can I get these details in -l output.

Either by opening a support ticket or reverse engineering the command. I have used last option quite a lot during time.

Thanks Nicolai, I can use -U, However -l is easy to use in scripting. So if anyone knows, as for one of the policy I checked SCHED says 2 for type which is Cumulative incremental schedule, However in -U it says Application backup.

Try using -L? 

Running it on a few of our policies:

Standard Policy

With -l command:

SCHED full 0 1 604800 0 0 0 0 *NULL* 0 1 0 0 0 0 -1 0 0

With -L command:

Include: /*
Schedule: full
Type: FULL (0)
Calendar sched: Enabled

SQL Policy

With -l command:

SCHED full 0 1 604800 0 0 0 0 *NULL* 0 1 0 0 0 0 -1 0 0

With -L command:

Schedule: full
Type: FULL SSQL Server (0)
Calendar sched: Enabled

I'm sure you can run it on a few of your policies to confirm. -l is a bit confusing when there are default-application-schedules included in a policy. So you need to look at the schedule you have configured.

Hi,

i did this a while back for config doc generation.

  <ScheduleTypes>

    <add key="0" value="Full"/>

    <add key="1" value="Diff"/>

    <add key="2" value="UserBackup "/>

    <add key="3" value="UserArchive "/>

    <add key="4" value="Cinc"/>

I had to code it with -U itself, would have been easy with -l, However had to do it complicated awk for -U.
