Backup and Restore Functional Description
TAR32 On Windows NT/2000 clients, the TAR32 program is a special
version of tar provided with NetBackup and used to restore
images.
Started By: For each restore, NetBackup starts an instance of
TAR32 on the client.
Stopped By: Completion of restore operation.
Activity Log: TAR.LOG in the NetBackup logs directory on the
client.
xbp X Windows based client-user interface, on UNIX clients, with
options for starting user-directed backups, restores, and archives.
Functionally, it is very similar to the menu version, bp.
Started By: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/xbp command on
the client.
Stopped By: Quit option in xbp.
Activity Log: None, although the log for the bpbackup,
bparchive, bplist, and bprestore commands on the client
may also be useful for debugging problems with xbp.
xbpadm Administrator utility for backup policy management that runs on
a UNIX master server. This utility has options for configuring
and managing NetBackup. It has an X Windows based, graphical
interface and is functionally very similar to the menu version,
bpadm.
Started By: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/xbpadm command
on the master server. (VERITAS recommends that you use
xbpadm only on the master server.)
Stopped By: Quit option in xbpadm.
Activity Log: /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/xbpadm.
xbpmon Available only on UNIX. The job monitor is a utility for
monitoring the progress of backup and archive jobs. It also
provides limited job control.
The jnbSA and the NetBackup Windows NT/2000
administration interfaces have an equivalent utility called the
Activity monitor.
Started By: From xbpadm or with the
/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/xbpmon command.
Stopped By: Quit option from within xbpmon.
Activity Log: /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/xbpmon.
