About NetBackup for NDMP logs

NetBackup uses two types of logging, unified logging and legacy logging. Both logging types are described in the "Using Logs and Reports" topic in the NetBackup Troubleshooting Guide.

Note the following:

  • All unified logs are written to /usr/openv/logs (UNIX) or install_path\logs (Windows). Unlike legacy logging, you do not need to create logging directories.

  • Use the vxlogview command to examine unified logs:

    See Viewing NetBackup for NDMP logs.

    On UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/vxlogview

    On Windows: install_path\NetBackup\bin\vxlogview

    Refer to the NetBackup Troubleshooting Guide for assistance in using the vxlogview command.

    See also the vxlogview man page or the NetBackup Commands Guide.
