Backup

The backup stream diagram contains the processes involved in a backup being executed through a scheduled backup. bphdb is called to initiate the XBSA application, which then initiates one or more user-directed jobs.

If the backup is initiated from the XBSA application, it starts at that point. In the diagram below, the processes are divided among three logical machines, the Master Server, Media Server, and Client, but they can exist on only one or two machines.

See the backup process diagrams in the NetBackup Logging Reference Guide.
