Name

bpps — list process statistics for the processes that run on your system. Be aware this command operates differently on Windows systems than it does on UNIX systems.

SYNOPSIS

bpps [-a | -x | [ {[-n][-3]} [-f] ]]

bpps [-l | -s | -S] [-t sample_time[m]] [-i | -x process_group] ... [host_name] ...

install_path\NetBackup\bin\bpps -? [process_group ...]

For UNIX and Linux, the directory path for this command is /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/

For Windows, the directory path to this command is install_path\NetBackup\bin\

DESCRIPTION

This command operates differently on Windows systems than it does on UNIX systems.

The bpps command lists the process statistics for all processes that run on your system. This command enables you to list a specific process group. It also enables you to specify a sample time in seconds (or milliseconds) before it lists the processes.

Note:

The command options that bpps uses on Windows are unrelated to the options that the UNIX bpps command uses.

OPTIONS: UNIX and Linux

-3

Display all processes running from programs resident outside the NetBackup installation directories but using libraries, open files, or current working directory within the NetBackup installation directories. This option includes any currently running notify scripts.

-a

Includes the Media Manager processes in the listing.

-f

Display the NetBackup files and directories in use by the NetBackup (-n) or third-party (-3) processes. This option includes files either mapped into the process or currently open by the process. The option also includes any directories which are the current working directory for the process.

-n

Display all processes running from programs resident within the NetBackup installation directories. Excludes notify scripts because they contain third-party commands.

-x

Includes Media Manager processes and the extra shared processes such as pbx_exchange in the listing.

OPTIONS: Windows

host_name

The name of the host computer on which you list group process statistics.

-?

Print the help screen. If you specify process_group here, it displays the list of processes that are included or excluded when you specify process_group with -i or -x options.

-i process_group

Include the specified process group in the listing (default NB_ALL).

-l

Output a long listing.

-s

Output a short listing (default).

-S

Output a short listing without the header (for example, host name, date, and column headings).

-t sample_time[m]

Specify the sample time (default 1 second). The sample time is specified in seconds unless followed by m, which specifies the sample time in milliseconds.

-x process_group

Exclude the specified process group from the listing.
