Run Debug Session
Choose your backup specification, which fails or gives the error and run this backup specification.
At the beginning of the session messages you will see the Session ID (from HP Data Protector 6.1 on).

Remember the session ID to be able to collect only the debugs of the just run session.
Collect Debugs
After th
e session is completed or failed, collect the debugs for this session with the omnidlc
command. In this use case we use the option –session, which will collect only the debug
information of the specified session. The omnidlc command needs to be executed on the Data
Protector Cell Manager.
