Reporting of unsuccessful filegroup or file backups
If you select specific databases and specific filegroups or files in a backup policy, NetBackup reports any unsuccessful filegroup or file backups differently than if you select an entire instance (DATABASE $ALL). Consider the following scenarios:
Scenario 1 - For
SQLINSTANCE1(DATABASE $ALLor all the databases), back up the filegroupsFG1,FG2, andFG3. If NetBackup cannot back upFG1,FG2, orFG3, NetBackup skips the backup of the filegroup for that database. The parent job completes with a status 0.Scenario 2 - For
DATABASEAandDATABASECinSQLINSTANCE1, back up the filegroupsFG1,FG2, andFG3. If NetBackup cannot back up any of these filegroups forDATABASEAorDATABASEC, the parent job completes with a status 2. The job details indicate that one or more of the filegroups that you selected were not backed up.
