NetWorker Checkpoint-enabled backup reporting

Checkpoint-enabled backup reporting

The daemon.raw file on the NetWorker Server contains details about groups that are run with checkpoint-enabled clients. When a group backup is completed, policy notifications also report the status of each client backup.
 

View the policy reports for checkpoint-enabled client backups

There are several things to consider when reviewing the summary notification report and the action report for the backup status of a checkpoint-enabled client.

• When a checkpoint-enabled client backup attempt fails:
  • The action is reported as a failure.
  • The failed save sets are reported in the Unsuccessful Save Set status section.
• When a checkpoint-enabled client backup succeeds:
  • The action status is reported as a success.
  • The total number of partial save sets that make up the checkpoint save sets is displayed in the Save Set Summary section.
  • The successful save sets are reported in the Successful Save Set status section.

Determine the status of a checkpoint-enabled backup

Review the daemon.raw file on the NetWorker server to determine the status of a checkpoint-enabled client backup.

nsrd info, Savegroup Info: group_name:client_name checkpoint enabled, mode: mode. (severity 0, message 71193)

This message is reported when a backup action starts. This message reports the names of the clients that are checkpoint-enabled, and the mode that was selected at the time of the backup.

savegrp test: checkpoint restartable saveset client_name: save_set created in previous run(s) of the group. It will be checkpoint restarted. Checkpoint ID cp_id.

This message reports that a partial save set is detected for a client in the group and a checkpoint restart occurs for the save set.

savegrp group_name checkpoint restartable saveset client_name:save_set failed and will not be restarted.

This message is reported when the backup of a checkpoint-enabled client fails and the backup will not be retried.

Common reasons for this error message include:

• The restart window for the group has been exceeded.
• The maximum number of client retries has been reached.
