Changing the MSDP shadow catalog schedule
NetBackup automatically creates a copy of the MSDP catalog at 0340 hours daily, host time. You can change the default schedule.
See About protecting the MSDP catalog.
To change the MSDP shadow catalog schedule
- Open the following file in a text editor:
UNIX:
/database_path/databases/spa/database/scheduler/5
Windows:
database_path\databases\spa\database\scheduler\5
By default, NetBackup uses the same path for the storage and the catalog; the database_path and the storage_path are the same. If you configure a separate path for the deduplication database, the paths are different.
The contents of the file are similar to the following line. The second section of the line (40 3 * * *) configures the schedule.
CatalogBackup|40 3 * * *|21600|32400|
- Edit the second section of the file (40 3 * * *). The schedule section conforms to the UNIX crontab file convention, as follows:
40 3 * * * ┬ ┬ ┬ ┬ ┬ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └───── Day of week (0 - 7, Sunday is both 0 and 7, or use │ │ │ │ sun, mon, tue, wed, thu, fri, sat; asterisk (*) is │ │ │ │ every day) │ │ │ └────────── Month (1 - 12; asterisk (*) is every month) │ │ └─────────────── Day of month (1 - 31; asterisk (*) is every │ │ day of the month) │ └──────────────────── Hour (0 - 23; asterisk (*) is every hour) └───────────────────────── Minute (0 - 59; asterisk (*) is every minute of the hour)
- After your changes, save the file.
- Restart the NetBackup Deduplication Manager (spad).
