syslogs

System log

You must enable system logging to troubleshoot ltid or robotic software. See the syslogd man page.

user_ops

The user_ops directory is created during the install of NetBackup on all servers and clients. NetBackup interface programs use it for the following: temporary files and for job and progress log files that the Backup, Archive, and Restore program (jbpSA) generates. This directory must exist for successful operation of any of the Java programs and must have public read, write, and execute permissions. user_ops contains a directory for every user that uses the Java programs.

In addition, on Java-capable platforms, the NetBackup Java interface log files are written in the nbjlogs subdirectory. All files in the user_ops directory hierarchy are removed according to the setting of the KEEP_LOGS_DAYS configuration option.

vnetd

The Veritas network daemon, used to create firewall-friendly socket connections. Started by the inetd(1M) process.
