need command for NBU

[nikenbu]

Hi ALL,

NBU 8.1.2.

I have 1000 clients in the environment.

I want to know that what all client dont have full backup ran in past 3 days.

I am using below command but it is showing me all clinet names in the file.

I need to know the command which can give what all clients do not have the backups in last 3 days.

I am using below command currrently.

 for i in `cat client13feb2022.txt`;do echo "Client:$i";./bpimagelist -d 02/10/2022 00:00:00 -e 02/13/2022 00:00:00 -client $i -l | awk '/^IMAGE/ {print $2, $7, $11}' | egrep -i "week|Full"; done

you need to add to awk the $12 column. Which is the schedule type.

OR add to your bpimagelist command the following option

-st sched_type

Specifies a schedule type for the image selection. The default is any schedule type. Valid values are as follows:

FULL (full backup)
INCR (differential-incremental backup)
CINC (cumulative-incremental backup)
UBAK (user backup)
UARC (user archive)
NOT_ARCHIVE (all backups except user archive)

Hi  @nikenbu 

I guess OpsCentre could also do the job, really depend on, if reporting requirement is a growing issues or just a "one off".

Thanks Nicolai.

We are not using opscenter because of some management and security reasons.

HI @nikenbu 

Use the return code from bpimagelist to determine whether a client has had the required backup or not. A return code of 0 implies there is something, and return code of 227 means nothing found. 

So something like this

echo "Below clients backup did not run in the mentioned time frame:"
for i in `cat clients13feb2022.txt`;do
   bpimagelist -d 02/10/2022 00:00:00 -e 02/13/2022 00:00:00 -client $i -l -st FULL >/dev/null 2>&1
   if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
      echo $i
   fi
done

Cheers
David

Or the above on one line:

# echo "Below clients backup did not run in the mentioned time frame"; for i in `cat clients13feb2022.txt`;do bpimagelist -d 02/10/2022 00:00:00 -e 02/13/2022 00:00:00 -client $i -l -st FULL >/dev/null 2>&1; if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo $i; fi; done

Thanks David.

Its giving me the list of clients whose backup did run.

I need the list of clients whose backup did not run.

[root@ admincmd]# echo "Below clients backup did not run in the mentioned time frame"; for i in `cat client13feb2022.txt`;do bpimagelist -d 02/10/2022 00:00:00 -e 02/14/2022 00:00:00 -client $i -l -st FULL >/dev/null 2>&1; if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo $i; fi; done

HI @nikenbu 

The command works fine on my system and produces the expected results. Can you compare the output from your previous command and check?

[root@admincmd]# for i in `cat client13feb2022.txt`;do echo "Client:$i";./bpimagelist -d 02/10/2022 00:00:00 -e 02/13/2022 00:00:00 -client $i -l -st FULL | awk '/^IMAGE/ {print $2, $7, $11}' | egrep -i "week|Full"; done
