Backup success and failure report
Hi,
I'm currently running NW 7.4 on windows, and I'm wondering how do I create a success/failure report for all clients/groups each
morning for upper management and send it to backup admin email?
Thanks

Now you want to try to copy the 'savegroup completion' notification and replace action with sth. like:
smtpmail -h -s "Savegroup Completion failed"
and change priority to 'alert' only.
That should work.

Hi,
have a look at reporting capabilities.
You can define configuration details for reports with nmc, save them and then run these reports from command line with gstclreport.
For that you will need installed jre on the consol server.
Scheduling will take place with either a special group and savepnpc (postcommand) or local scheduling, ie.cron.
If reports do not meet your needs, you might want to have a look at DPA or do some scripting by your own.

You will not find any NMC Admin Guide.
Have a look in the NetWorker Admin Guide. There you will find at least two chapters dealing with reporting and NMC.

Any documents that i can refer to? I've been trying to search NMC admin guide in powerlink but it's not available. Different keyword for search maybe?

You could try to create a new notification similar to the savegroup completion, but with priority 'alert' only.
So I think you will not receive savegroup completion mails from successfull groups.
The best way is to copy 'Savegroup completion' an edit it.

I mixed sth. up.
Savegroup Completion is logged and not mailed in NW 7.4
So its not the very best way to copy it without having a look at for example Saveset corruption notification for the command.

smtpmail comes with NetWorker for Windows as far as I know.

In ' \bin' you can find a file named: 'smtpmail.exe'.
That's a programm or app or sth. else but no command.

Hi Guys,
I managed to configure smtpmail to send email to my email account for testing purposes, so how do I exactly configure smtpmail to send email ONLY when there's a failed backup?
