Dell NetWorker 19.9 Administration Guide

Customizing the save sets status in the policy notifications

NetWorker reports the status of a save session that completes with warning based on the value defined in Success threshold attribute for an action.

Events that might trigger a warning when they occur during a backup include the following conditions:

• The file size increases or decreases
• The mtime of the file changes

To define the success threshold for a save session, select one the following values in the Specify the Backup Options screen of the Policy Action Wizard:

• Warning—Save sets that complete with warnings are reported as success with warnings.
• Success—Save sets that complete with warnings are reported as failed. This is the default value. The number of times NetWorker retries a failed save set is determined by the value defined in the Retries attribute, which you specify in the Specify the Advanced Options screen of the Policy Action Wizard.

The Success threshold attribute also applies to the save sets displayed in the Monitoring window.
