NetBackup failures to write to Windows Event Log
Ok so the gist of it is we have a NetBackup Appliance that is Linux and most if not all servers being backed up are Windows. We want to be able to use the Application log in Windows Event Viewer to determine if a backup has failed with our monitoring software. Problem is any information I have found to enable Windows Event logging, only applies to a Windows OS Media/Master server for NetBackup. Is there a way to have a Linux Media/Master server and still have backup failures write to a Windows Event log? It can either be a main Windows servers or to each Windows server running netbackup.
Understanding Accelerator (from detailed Status view)
Hi all, I am in need of confirmation or explanation on some logging I see in the detailed status. When I see this in the detailed status (for an Incremental backup): 04/15/2015 07:02:43 - Info bpbkar (pid=98149) accelerator sent 1115317760 bytes out of 5630247936 bytes to server, optimization 80.2% Does this mean the Accelerator has found5630247936 bytesof new/changed data on the clientof which1115317760 bytesis new data to the backup appliance? And how does this related to: 04/15/2015 07:02:45 - Info netbackup (pid=164455) StorageServer=PureDisk:netbackup; Report=PDDO Stats for (netbackup): scanned: 5498334 KB, CR sent: 268206 KB, CR sent over FC: 0 KB, dedup: 95.1%, cache disabled I see that the client-side-dedup has foundscanned: 5498334 KBof new/changed data of whichsent: 268206 KBis sent to the Backup Appliance as this is new unique data. Please correct me where I am wrong or comfirm I am understanding this correctly. Many thanks Regards, Ronald
