Viewing NetBackup for NDMP logs
The following procedure describes how to view NetBackup logs.
Note:
The legacy and unified logging files can consume a lot of disk space. Delete the log files when you are finished and set logging to a lower level of detail.
- In the NetBackup web UI, select Host > Host properties.
- Select Loggingand set the Global logging level to 5.
- Click Apply and then OK.
- View the unified logging information in /usr/openv/logs (UNIX) or install_path\logs (Windows) for the following processes:
ndmpagent (originator ID 134)
ndmp (originator ID 151)
nbpem (originator ID 116)
nbjm (originator ID 117)
nbrb (originator ID 118)
- For ndmpagent logs, try the vxlogview command as follows:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/vxlogview -I ndmpagent -d T,s,x,p
- For ndmp logs, try the vxlogview command as follows:
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/vxlogview -I ndmp -d T,s,x,p
- On the NetBackup for NDMP server, create bptm, and bpbrm legacy debug log folders in the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs directory (UNIX) or install_path\NetBackup\logs folder (Windows):
bpbrm
bpfis
bpmount
bptm
bppfi
NetBackup writes legacy log files in these directories, if the directories exist.
