Media Manager Logs<br />

<strong>NetBackup</strong> <strong>4.5</strong> <strong>Troubleshooting</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Windows</strong><br />

Media Manager Logs<br />

On <strong>Windows</strong>, Media Manager records robotic and drive errors in the Event Viewer<br />

Application log. Log entries are also made when drives change between the UP and<br />

DOWN states.<br />

If a problem requires more in<strong>for</strong>mation, increase the level of logging to the Event Viewer<br />

Application log by adding a VERBOSE entry to the following file:<br />

install_path\Volmgr\vm.conf<br />

In addition, you can enable debug logging <strong>for</strong> the <strong>NetBackup</strong> Volume Manager service by<br />

creating the following directories:<br />

install_path\Volmgr\debug\daemon<br />

(Debug in<strong>for</strong>mation on the service)<br />

install_path\Volmgr\debug\reqlib<br />

(Debug in<strong>for</strong>mation on the process requesting the service)<br />

install_path\Volmgr\debug\tpcommand<br />

(Debug in<strong>for</strong>mation on the tpconfig and tpautoconf commands)<br />

install_path\Volmgr\debug\ltid<br />

(Debug in<strong>for</strong>mation on ltid)<br />

<strong>NetBackup</strong> creates one log per day in each of the above debug directories with file names<br />

of the <strong>for</strong>m:<br />

mmddyy.log<br />

For example:<br />

110894.log<br />

To disable debug logging <strong>for</strong> the <strong>NetBackup</strong> Volume Manager service, either delete or<br />

rename the directories.<br />

<strong>Windows</strong> Event Viewer Logging Option<br />

<strong>NetBackup</strong> <strong>Windows</strong> master servers can be configured so messages from <strong>NetBackup</strong><br />

reports are written to the <strong>Windows</strong> Event Viewer Application Log. This allows you to see<br />

these messages in the Application Log and also to use third party tools to monitor the<br />

Application Log <strong>for</strong> these messages.<br />
