Creating Logs of Your NetWorker Manual Backups
You can set the NSR_MPE_LOGNAME variable to save information on client-
initiated backups in a log file.
To create logs of your manual backups, enter the following system variable at
the CI prompt:
: SETVAR NSR_MPE_LOGNAME" /TMP/LOG "
You can also set this system variable from the POSIX shell if you prefer:
$ export NSR_MPE_LOGNAME=" /TMP/LOG "
Storing Temporary Shadow Logs
You can set the NSR_MPE_ONLINE_SAVE_LOGVOLSET system variable to
specify the MPE volume set on which the 7x24 TurboSTORE will store the
temporary shadow logs for online backups. Shadow logs contain the before-
backup images of any files that are changed during the backup. If you don’t set
this system variable, the shadow logs are saved to the MPE volume set of the
file that Networker and TurboSTORE are backing up currently. If you decide
not to save the shadow log to a different volume set, then make sure that you
have enough space on the volume set to which you are backing up.
Important: Note that you must not include the Networker-expected tag,
“_VOLUME-SET”, for non-system volume sets.
Backing Up a Directory
You can back up directories or files from the MPE Command Interpreter (CI)
or from the POSIX shell.
The NSRSAVE command to back up a directory includes the following
parameters:
• -s, the parameter for the server
• The name of the server to which you are backing up your directory
• The pathname of the directory that you are backing up
From the CI, enter the following command to back up a directory:
