Troubleshooting with VMware hardware snapshot and replication operations
To create detailed log information, place a VERBOSE entry in the bp.conf file on the NetBackup primary and client. Or set the global logging level to a high value in the Logging properties for both the primary server and the client.
These directories can eventually require a lot of disk space. Delete them when you are finished troubleshooting and remove the VERBOSE option from the bp.conf file. Or reset the to a lower value.
To create logging directories use the script /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/mklogdir. You can also create the directories using an access mode of 755 so NetBackup can write to the logs.
