restoring file from linux source to windows target; is possible?
Hi people: We are using NBU 10.x on windows 2022 media/master server (both roles same server). Have a mix of windows and linux clients. We need to restore a file from /wrk/app/app-baks.tar to a windows server on e:\wrk\app. My co-worker running this restore tells me that NBU GUI is telling that restore path is invalid. Tried e:/wrk/app but don't work. And seems that isn't supported. Any idea to accomplish this task ? Maybe UNC or and NFS on the same server? Hope to being clear.39Views0likes4CommentsRestore full folder with permissions to another location

Hi I want to automate a weekly restore of the most recent full backup of a SQL production database, to a development instance. The problem I'm having is finding the job ID of the most recent backup. I've tried usingbpimagelist bpimagelist -pt MS-SQL-Server -hoursago 48 -client Server1.com -idonly -st FULL but I can't differentiate between the databases that are backed up on that instanace. Does anyone kjnow how to do this, or does someone have a better way to automate the restore. Cheers AlexSolved690Views0likes2Commentsincomplete restore 2850
netbackup 7.6.0.4 on RHEL 6.10 Hi, I want to restore a backup from a decommissioned server (/home/user1/.ssh) to master server's /tmp but it always failed with "1: (2850) Failed to get status code information" Detailed status: 08/22/2022 07:38:49 - begin Restore 08/22/2022 07:38:49 - number of images required: 1 08/22/2022 07:38:49 - media needed: NGN665 08/22/2022 07:38:59 - Warning bprd (pid=52907) Restore must be resumed prior to first image expiration on Sun Mar 5 15:00:46 2023 08/22/2022 07:38:59 - end Restore; elapsed time 0:00:10 Failed to get status code information (2850) Tape NGN655 was originally attached to tape library that directly connected to media server1.

How can we backup and restore from the locationC:\Windows\SYSVOL on our domain controllers? In the backup policy we have it set to do a full backup and if you browse the directory structure it shows all the contents of this folder. However, when you try to run a restore from the server it shows this folder as being empty. We have the Netbackup Client Service running on those servers as a local domain admin account. Those servers also have "Netbackup Legacy Client Service" (not sure what the difference is) which is also running with a local domain admin account. I have also tried enabling Granular Recovery and Cross mount points on the backup policy, but still having the same issue. Our Netbackup admin console is ver 8.1.23KViews0likes4CommentsNetBackup schedules run manualy and protection of full backup
Hi! Have two questions 1. Manual backup I have policy which runs VM full backup each Sunday (backup window Sunday) and differential backups each day (backup window night). On the past week i run full backup manually in Thursday and so, backup have not run in Sunday as i planned. As i know (not so long ago :) if NetBackup calculate next schedule run time from the last successful backup, my last successful backup was manual backup in Thursday, but backup window set to Sunday, so it cannot run in Thursday, it may run just in next Sunday. Is it possible somehow to make NetBackup perform scheduled backup in time even if i run manual backup? 2. Protection of full backups. For example i have policy to make full backup each week in Sunday and store them one week and differential each day and store them 7 days. For example something has happened andfull backup did not run in time, isfull backup expire even if differential backup exists? I understand that after expiration of full backup, next differential will be the same as full, but is time between two differentials is this is a risk to lose all consistent backups? Or i better to keep full backups for a longer time? Thank you very much for your answers.Solved609Views0likes4Comments
