Creating NetBackup log file directories for MSDP
Before you configure your NetBackup feature, create the directories into which the NetBackup commands write log files. Create the directories on the master server and on each media server that you use for your feature. The log files reside in the following directories:
UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/
Windows:install_path\NetBackup\logs\
More information about NetBackup logging is available in the NetBackup Logging Reference Guide, available through the following URL:
http://www.veritas.com/docs/DOC5332
To create log directories for NetBackup commands
- Depending on the operating system, run one of the following scripts:
UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/mklogdir
Windows: install_path\NetBackup\logs\mklogdir.bat
To create the tpconfig command log directory
- Depending on the operating system, create the
debug
directory and thetpcommand
directory (by default, thedebug
directory and thetpcommand
directory do not exist). The pathnames of the directories are as follows:UNIX: /usr/openv/volmgr/debug/tpcommand
Windows:
install_path\Veritas\Volmgr\debug\tpcommand
