Hi,

   In our netbackup, there is a problem with the image which is being created on a backup completion. It would be better if netbackup could create the image even for the failure jobs as well, since its very critical that, if a job fails in the middle the entire data which has been written will go off and cant be viewed in the BAR window.

   Please agree if its correct...

 Thanks !!!

if the job fails then there

if the job fails then there is no EOD ( end of data) mark on the tape.  without that the the image on the tape is messed up and if you tried to do a restore you could get some messed up data by reading some old image on the tape at the point of the failure.

I don't have to know how to spell....I work on Unix.
