BPBRM_VERBOSE option for NetBackup servers

The BPBRM_VERBOSE option is used for debugging purposes. It controls the amount of information that NetBackup includes in the bpbrm debug log.

Table: BPBRM_VERBOSE information

Usage

Description

Where to use

On NetBackup master servers.

How to use

The default is that BPBRM_VERBOSE is the same value as the VERBOSE option (Global logging level). The BPBRM_VERBOSE option overrides the VERBOSE option in the configuration file.

Use the nbgetconfig and the nbsetconfig commands to view, add, or change the option.

For information about these commands, see the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide.

Use the following format:

BPBRM_VERBOSE = -1 | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5

This entry should appear only once in the configuration file.

Example

  • To use the same value as the VERBOSE option, enter:

    BPBRM_VERBOSE = 0

    This option is the same as setting the BPBRM logging level in the Logging host properties to Same as Global.

  • To log the minimum amount of information, enter:

    BPBRM_VERBOSE = -1

    This option is the same as setting the BPBRM logging level to 0 in the Logging host properties.

  • To log additional information, enter a value of 1 through 5:

    BPBRM_VERBOSE = 1

    This option is the same as setting the BPBRM logging level to 1 in the Logging host properties.

  • To log the maximum amount of information, enter:

    BPBRM_VERBOSE = 5

    This option is the same as setting the BPBRM logging level to 5 in the Logging host properties.

Equivalent Administration Console property

NetBackup Management > Host Properties > Master Servers > Double-click on server > Logging > BPBRM logging level.

See the NetBackup Logging Reference Guide for more information about the debug log.

See Logging properties.
