identify manual backup in bprd or bpbrm logs

[h_m]

Does anyone know how to identify manually initiated and scheduled backups from the bprd or bpbrm logs?

Thanks,

You need to look for the string "immediate backup"

e.g.:

14:27:30.140 [4712.5404] <2> process_request: immediate backup request = 329199 55 root other NONE masterSRVName masterSRVname NONE TEDC-clientName Incr 0 0 13 0 C C C C C 0 0 -1 0 0
 

You can also pull this out of the nbpem logs using for example

vxlogview -p 51216 -o 116 -d all -t 24:00:00 > c:\temp\24hrpemlog.txt

Search that file then for the same string, eg:

06/03/2009 14:33:19.265 [Application] NB 51216 nbpem 116 PID:2868 TID:2996 File ID:116 [jobid=-1 job_group_id=-1 client= type=2 server= task=ID:017CD6C0 policy=<<POLICYNAME>>] [Info] V-116-80 received start immediate backup request for client=*, policy=<<POLICYNAME>>, schedule=Incr, stream #=0, client type=MS-Windows-NT (13), parent jobid=-1
06/03/2009 14:33:19.265 [Application] NB 51216 nbpem 116 PID:2868 TID:2956 File ID:116 [No context] [Info] V-116-41 running session_start_notify

Thanks dami.

Confirms my findings. Guessing grepping for “sched” would show scheduled?

I’ve not got any nbperm or vxlogs to work with.. So working blind J

Thanks for your help.
