Check if Netbackup has been run from the AIX client 1

[vodkadrinker]

Is there an easy way to check if a netbackup has been run from an AIX client?

I have been monitoring the bpbk process running but wondered if there is an easier way to check the last time it was run, eg a log or a command.

Note: I only have access to the client that the backup is run on.

You can create a bpbkar log on a UNIX/AIX client:

mkdir /usr/openv/netbackup/logs/bpbkar/

Everytime bpbkar is launched it will log into this directory.
A new log is created for each day (if bpbkar is ran on that day).

Thankyou this is exactly what I was looking for, sorry if it was an easy question but its only easy when you know how and NetBackup is not something I usually have to get involved in.
