Hi Martin:

when i terminate bprd,will my schedule backup will run?

 

Andy2345

I have read below in above link.

 

IS below correct?

 

 

One thing many folks haven't mentioned here: running nbpemreq -suspend_scheduling, also terminates bprd.

So to summarize:

nbpemreq -suspend_scheduling:

  • No scheduled jobs
  • No manual jobs, restores, etc.

bprdreq -terminate:

  • Scheduled jobs still run
  • No manual jobs, restores, etc.

"when i terminate bprd,will my schedule backup will run?"

I'm not answering that, as the answer is already explained in the forum, and you need to try these things and find out for yourself, thats what the rest of us have to do.

If you have a real issue with bprd not terminating, I will show you how to investigate.

In the bprd log, when you run bprdreq -terminate you should see lines like these :

 

12:06:51.356 [13762] <2> bprd: socket fd from accept() is 10

 

12:06:51.374 [13762] <2> listen_loop: request complete
12:06:51.620 [13762] <2> launch: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbpemreq, pid=29817
12:06:51.640 [13762] <2> terminate_daemon: termination begun...error code = 0
12:06:51.643 [13762] <4> terminate_daemon: bprd TERMINATED
12:06:51.643 [13762] <2> childterm: pid=29817 exit=0, signo=0 core=no
12:06:52.185 [13762] <2> childterm: pid=29816 exit=0, signo=0 core=no
12:06:52.185 [13762] <2> terminate_daemon: bprd children TERMINATED

@Martin:I just wanna know bprd terminate will terminate my pem?

Andy2345

It depends on whether the backup is kicked off manually or automatically by the scheduler. 

All manual requests are sent to bprd first. From there to nbpem.

Automatically scheduled jobs are started by nbpem,

 

Please help me in this.I have searched a lot

You know what Chris Z has said about 'what if' questions - he has asked that we stop answering them.

I thoughht with you first post you actually had a real question, then I explain how to investigate this and the post than diverts into exam type questions.

If you have a real issue, you can run the commands on your system and see if there nbpem process stops, or you can look at the info you found.

The answer is in the post above:

bprdreq -terminate:

 

  • Scheduled jobs still run
  • No manual jobs, restores, etc.

Also,  

 

If you have a command called bprdreq, do you seriously think this is going to stop a process with a different name ?  

Andy2345

no it will not stop a different process.

OK, now, seeing that the previous information shows that after running bprdreq scheduled jobs will still run ...

You know what process is responsible for running scheduled jobs, therefore, if scheduled jobs still run, you know if that process must be running or not - and hence the answer.

Then what is above statement for?

Andy2345
Level 6

then why nbpemreq will terminate bprd as you said that

 

 If you have a command called bprdreq, do you seriously think this is going to stop a process with a different name

Doesn't count ...

nbpemreq -suspend_scheduling doesn't stop any processes ...   It stops nbpem and bprd from processing, but does not actually stop the process.

nbpem and bprd will still be running.

 

root@womble bprd $ nbpemreq -suspend_scheduling
root@womble bprd $ bpps -x |grep nbpem
    root  5575     1   0 14:05:49 ?           0:01 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/nbpem
 
root@womble bprd $ bpps -x |grep bprd
    root  5553     1   0 14:05:42 ?           0:01 /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/bprd

I see a couple of problems here, but they don't involve bprd.
