you can use the netbackup scripts to send alerts or emails when all your backups are done also you can customize a script who detects NDMP jobs or by an specific policy, out of this there is nothing specific for NDMP

O/S?

 

You could look at adding some custom code to:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/backup_exit_notify

 

...to email you the completion status of each backup job/stream when a specific client name finishes.

 

 

*Beware* NetBackup update patches overwrite this file.  So always keep a copy elsewhere.

Yes finally I am getting the mails for NDMP,

 

I hav customized the 'ndmp_start_notify' & 'ndmp_end_notify' script,

 

'ndmp_start_notify - for started of NDMP backup mail.

'ndmp_end_notify' - for completion for NDMP backup mail.
