Netbackup reporting script – an update (of sorts)

17 08 2010

Seems the Netbackup reporting script is in pretty high demand at the moment. Obviously lots of you just as frustrated with NBU reporting as I was! I’m really pleased that so many of you are finding it useful – though I am starting to wonder if letting it out in to the open without a license agreement (a free one, don’t worry) is a good idea.

I have placed the scripts in a public DropBox location which is linked to at the bottom of the original Netbackup Report Scripting post. In the mean time, please see the PayPal donation button to the right now. If you’ve used my scripts and find them useful – and certainly if you plan to use them in a business environment – please consider donation as much or as little as you can.

I also have some nice new blog posts ready to upload as soon as I can sort my image hosting out! Those of you struggling with EVA performance monitoring and tuning, stay…err….tuned!

This batch is called by the main generateReport.vbs script. It used built-in Netbackup command line utilities to output the contents of the NBU database report section to a CSV whith the VBscript then imports.
