DESCRIPTION
The nbgetconfig command is available for all NetBackup host platforms. It displays the configuration information of a specified host in various formats.
You must have administrator privileges to run this command.
OPTIONS
- -D | -d
The -D option returns a listing of configuration entry names, the existing configuration values in brackets, and the default configuration values in parentheses. This operation can be performed locally or remotely. The remote machine with an identical version of netbackup is installed. The -D and -d options may be combined with the -M, -h, and -u options.
The following is part of a listing that the -D option returns:
... REQUEST_DELIVERY_TIMEOUT [300] (300) DISABLE_SCSI_RESERVE [NO] (NO) Time_Overlap [60] (60) Buffer_Size [16] (16) Use_Archive_Bit [YES] (YES) Perform_Default_Search [YES] (YES) Accumulate_Files [NO] (NO) ...
The -d option functions like the -D, except -d displays only the entries changed from the configuration defaults. The following is an example display:
.. PEM_VERBOSE [-1] (0) JM_VERBOSE [-1] (0) RB_VERBOSE [-1] (0) CONNECT_OPTIONS [**configured**] () Exclude [**configured**] () Browser [teburi.min.vrts.com] () AUTHENTICATION_DOMAIN [**not configured**] () VXSS_NETWORK [**not configured**] () PREFERRED_NETWORK [**not configured**] () ...
More information on many of the configuration items are described in the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I.
- -H config_item
Displays the valid configuration items.
- -h
Displays the default local host configuration.
- -M host
Specifies the NetBackup host or client whose configuration appears.
- -private_exld_list
Lists all the directories and files that are excluded by default from a backup.
- -u
Displays the current user configuration.
- -X
Lists all configuration items by default. The -x and -X options may be combined with the -M, -h, and -u options. The -x and -X options have no effect if one or more configuration items are specified on the command line.
If config_item is specified, it appears on the specified configuration items.
- -x
Excludes the items not explicitly listed in the configuration.
