Specifying the NetBackup job ID number after a catalog recovery
When the NetBackup catalog is recovered, NetBackup resets the job ID to 1. NetBackup starts assigning job numbers beginning with 1. You can specify the NetBackup job ID number after a catalog recovery.
To specify the NetBackup job ID number after a catalog recovery
- Edit the NetBackup
jobidfile and set the value to one higher than the number from the last job ID number in the recovery catalog. The following is the pathname to thejobidfile:UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/db/jobs/jobid
Windows: install_path\NetBackup\db\jobs\jobid
Because the recovery consumes job numbers, you must specify the number before the catalog recovery.
- Recover the NetBackup catalog.
