When Netbackup retries a backup, it is creating a new job. I was of the impression that a retry would just activate the ATTEMPT counter, and use the same job. This is inflating our SLA in that we are being charged for each time the backup retries because they are seperatre jobs Is there a way to make NBU retry the backup within the same job ?

what are the values in Master server --> Host properties--> Global attributes
for Job retry delay & Schedule Backup attempts
also value set for "Move backup job from incompleate to Done state" from Master server --> Host properties--> clean up
these 2 settings should describe the reason behind the behaiver you are seeing..
ex:- schedule backup attempts are set to 3 tries in 12 hours and clean is set to 3 hours
every 3 hours previous incompleate job will move to done state and as per the retry setting new job will start.
if you would like to keep the single job for all attempts you may need to chage the cleanup time equal to retry attemtps...

ok I understand My Image clean Interval is 8 hours, but the MOVE BACKUP JOB FROM INCOMPLETE STATE TO DONE STATE is set to 3 hours The scheduled backup attempts is set to 1 per 6 hours So when the retry happens, the previous job has been set to DONE Thank you

Hi Mudabo,
You should set the solution as Ram Nagalla's post.
