Modify or disable NetBackup event notifications in the web UI
You can disable specific types of NetBackup event notifications that appear in the web UI, or modify their severity and priority, by making changes to the eventlog.properties file on the NetBackup primary server:
Windows:
install_path\var\global\wmc\h2Stores\notifications\propertiesUNIX:
/usr/openv/var/global/wmc/h2Stores/notifications/properties
To disable event notifications
- Add a DISABLE entry in the
eventlog.propertiesfile in one of the following formats:DISABLE.NotificationType = true
Or DISABLE.NotificationType.Action = true
Or DISABLE.namespace
For valid NotificationType and Action values, see the following topic.
See NetBackup event types supported with notifications.
For example:
To disable notifications about all storage unit events:
DISABLE.StorageUnit = true
To disable only notifications about create storage unit events:
DISABLE.StorageUnit.CREATE = true
To disable only notifications about update to storage unit events using a namespace:
DISABLE.eventlog.vrts.nbu.emm.storageunit.update = true
To modify the priority or severity of event notifications
- Add or change an entry in the
eventlog.propertiesfile in one of the following formats:NotificationType.Action.priority = value
Or NotificationType.Action.severity = value
Valid priority values are: LOW, MEDIUM, HIGH
Valid severity values are: CRITICAL, ERROR, WARNING, INFO, DEBUG
For example:
To set priority and severity for create storage unit events:
StorageUnit.CREATE.priority = LOW StorageUnit.CREATE.severity = INFO
Note:
It can take up to one minute for the events of type Policy, SLP, and Catalog to generate after the corresponding action has been performed.
