UNIX client examples
The following is an example of a bp.conf file of a UNIX client:
SERVER = server1 CLIENT_NAME = client1 USEMAIL = abc@bdev.com COMPRESS_SUFFIX = .Addrs COMPRESS_SUFFIX = .Counts VERBOSE = 1 RESTORE_RETRIES = 1 BPBACKUP_POLICY = U1userdir BPBACKUP_SCHED = userbackups BPARCHIVE_POLICY = U1userdir BPARCHIVE_SCHED = userarchives LOCKED_FILE_ACTION = SKIP
Nonroot users on UNIX clients can have a personal bp.conf file in their home directory: $HOME/bp.conf.
Note:
A root user cannot have a personal bp.conf file. For root users, NetBackup uses the /usr/openv/netbackup/bp.conf file.
A personal bp.conf file can have any of the following options:
USEMAIL = abc@bdev.com BPBACKUP_POLICY = user1 BPBACKUP_SCHED = userback BPARCHIVE_POLICY = user1 BPARCHIVE_SCHED = userarch LIST_FILES_TIMEOUT = 10 CLIENT_NAME = alternate_client_name
Specify CLIENT_NAME only when doing restores to an alternate client.
