Directory names for legacy debug logs for servers
Table: Directory names for legacy debug logs describes the directories you need to create to support legacy debug logs for servers. Each directory corresponds to a process. Unless it is noted, each directory should be created under the following directory.
Table: Directory names for legacy debug logs
Directory | Associated process |
|---|
admin
| Administrative commands
|
bpbrm
| NetBackup backup and restore manager
|
bpcd
| NetBackup client daemon or manager. The NetBackup Client service starts this process.
|
bpjobd
| NetBackup jobs database manager program
|
bpdm
| NetBackup disk manager
|
bpdbm
| NetBackup Database Manager. This process runs only on master servers. On Windows systems, it is the NetBackup Database Manager service.
|
bpjava-msvc
| The NetBackup Java application server authentication service that is started when the NetBackup interface applications start. On UNIX servers, inetd starts it. On Windows servers, the Client Services service starts it.
This program authenticates the user that started the application.
|
bpjava-susvc
| The NetBackup program that bpjava-msvc starts upon successful logon through the logon dialog box that is presented when a NetBackup interface starts. This program services all requests from the Java user interfaces on the NetBackup master or media server host where the bpjava-msvc program runs (all Windows platforms).
|
bprd
| NetBackup request daemon or manager. On Windows systems, this process is called the NetBackup Request Manager service.
|
bpsynth
| The NetBackup process for synthetic backup. nbjm starts bpsynth. bpsynth runs on the master server.
|
bptm
| NetBackup tape management process
|
nbatd | Authentication daemon (UNIX and Linux) or service (Windows). nbatd authenticates access to
interfaces of NetBackup services or daemons. |
nbazd | Authorization daemon (UNIX and Linux) or service (Windows). nbazd authorizes access to
interfaces of NetBackup services or daemons. |
syslogs
| System log You must enable system logging to troubleshoot ltid or robotic software. See the syslogd man page.
|
user_ops
| The user_ops directory is created during the install of NetBackup on all servers and clients. NetBackup interface programs use it for the following: temporary files and for job and progress log files that the Backup, Archive, and Restore program (jbpSA) generates. This directory must exist for successful operation of any of the Java programs and must have public read, write, and execute permissions. user_ops contains a directory for every user that uses the Java programs.
In addition, on Java-capable platforms, the NetBackup Java interface log files are written in the nbjlogs subdirectory. All files in the user_ops directory hierarchy are removed according to the setting of the KEEP_LOGS_DAYS configuration option.
|
vnetd
| The Veritas network daemon, used to create firewall-friendly socket connections. Started by the inetd(1M) process.
Logging occurs in either the /usr/openv/logs directory or the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs if the vnetd directory exists there. If the vnetd directory exists in both locations, logging occurs only in /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/vnetd. |
More information is available on the programs and daemons that write the logs.
See Multiplexed backup process.
On UNIX systems, also refer to the README file in the /usr/openv/netbackup/logs directory.
