NetBackup debug logs and reports

Debug logs

The NetBackup server and client software let you enable detailed debugging logs. The information in these log files can help you troubleshoot the problems that occur outside of either the database agent or Greenplum server.

Note the following for these logs:

  • These logs do not reveal the errors that occur when Greenplum server is running unless those errors also affect NetBackup. Greenplum may (or may not) write errors in the application to the NetBackup logs. Your best sources for Greenplum error information are the logs provided by Greenplum.

  • Generally, each debug log corresponds to a NetBackup process and executable.

Information about the debugging log files is available in the NetBackup Troubleshooting Guide.

Also refer to the following file:

/usr/openv/netbackup/logs/README.debug file
Reports

NetBackup provides other reports that are useful in isolating problems. One such report is All logs entries on the server. For more information see the NetBackup Web UI Administrator's Guide.
