Veritas bkupexec agent.be logging
 

Hello,

I am running bkupexec agent.be on my debian server. Everything looks fine but now and then the agent process is automatically killed.

How can i set an log directory for my agent. Is there an option that i can add to my agent.cfg?

Thanks in advance.

Grt,

Sinister

Does anyone known this?

I've found it a few weeks ago.

Run this init script and start the agent with the -nd option (means network and debug mode)

#!/bin/sh
#
# Starts and stops the Backup Exec agent
# Craig Box, 25/8/03

PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
DAEMON=/etc/bkupexec/agent.be
CONF=/etc/bkupexec/agent.cfg

# clear conflicting settings from the environment
unset TMPDIR

# See if the daemon is there
test -x $DAEMON || exit 0

case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting the Backup Exec agent: agent.be"
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet -b --exec $DAEMON -- -c $CONF
echo "."
;;
stop)
echo -n "Stopping the Backup Exec agent: agent.be"
start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --oknodo --exec $DAEMON
echo "."
;;
restart|force-reload)
echo -n "Restarting the Backup Exec agent: agent.be"
start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --oknodo --exec $DAEMON
sleep 2
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet -b --exec $DAEMON -- -c $CONF
echo "."

echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/bkupexec {start|stop|restart|force-reload}"
