NetBackup policy monitor script
Updated: 20 Mar 2009 | 5 comments
This is a script to monitor Netbackup policy changes. It is extremely basic as I am not a programmer but it does meet my needs. It runs the bppllist command to an output that sets the benchmark and then when run on a daily basis it simply does a diff from the benchmark output.
Also, it creates a tarfile of the class (policies) directory and saves it for 30 days. This has helped eliminate the need for doing a restore when a policy is accidently deleted.

Wow, I was going to upload mine and I find you already put one here.
Using diff is also the same in my script !!!
But I did not think about keeping the tar ball to recover the class directories ... good idea.
Well, I'll upload mine anyway, and we can learn from each other's script.

I am looking for a way to reserve a drive for a client for backup and release it after backup is done. This is needed, once drive is reserved for that particular client, I have to shutdown client database which takes 10-to 15 minutes. I have tape library and drives are busy all the time.
