NetBackup Commands
303
bpbackup
A
21
= Split-Mirror
22
= AFS
The default is
3
on Apollos and
0
(Standard) on other clients.
-L
progress_log
Specifies the name of an existing file in which to write progress
information.
For example:
c:\proglog
The default is to not use a progress log.
-w
[hh:mm:ss]
Causes NetBackup to wait for a completion status from the server
before returning you to the system prompt.
You can optionally specify a wait time in hours, minutes, and
seconds. The maximum wait time you can specify is 23:59:59. If the
wait time expires before the backup is complete, the command exits
with a timeout status. The backup, however, still completes on the
server.
If you use
-w
without specifying a wait time or if you specify a
value of 0, NetBackup waits indefinitely for the completion status.
-help
Displays a synopsis of command usage when it is the only option
on the command line.
-k
keyword_phrase
Specifies a keyword phrase that NetBackup associates with the
image being created by this backup operation. You can then restore
the image by specifying the keyword phrase with the
-k
option on
the
bprestore
command.
If you use the
-i
option with
-k
, NetBackup establishes an
association between the keyword phrase and the backup class and
image.
The keyword phrase is a textual description of the backup that is a
maximum of 128 characters in length. All printable characters are
permitted including space (" ") and period ("."). Enclose the phrase
in double quotes ("...") or single quotes ( ‘...’).
