About the NetBackup for NDMP scripts

This topic provides information that you can use to customize the NDMP-specific notification scripts.

NetBackup for NDMP provides the following scripts (commands on Windows) for collecting information and providing notification of events.

Table: Scripts to run on the NetBackup for NDMP server

Scripts for UNIX

Scripts for Windows

ndmp_start_notify

ndmp_start_notify.cmd

ndmp_end_notify

ndmp_end_notify.cmd

ndmp_start_path_notify

ndmp_start_path_notify.cmd

ndmp_end_path_notify

ndmp_end_path_notify.cmd

ndmp_moving_path_notify

ndmp_moving_path_notify.cmd

The scripts are similar to those already included in your NetBackup server installation. To create the scripts on UNIX, copy the bpstart_notify and bpend_notify scripts from

  /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies (UNIX)

to

  /usr/openv/netbackup/bin

on the NetBackup for NDMP server. Then rename the copied scripts and modify as needed.

On Windows, you must create the scripts from scratch.
