Does anyone know if Networker supports the XBSA API for use by any application to perform backups/restores programatically? If so, is this included in the base product? Is there any documentation?

Thanks,

Alan

 
Alan,
Yes it does. Check out the app you are interested and look in the Admin Guide. For example here is a snip from the Lotus 2.1 AG, which I picked at random. I will leave it to you to see if the specific module you need has similiar, but I would guess it should

"NetWorker XBSA
NetWorker XBSA allows for configuration of environment options to activate NetWorker software features not directly supported by X/Open
specifications. NetWorker XBSA enables NetWorker Module for Lotus
software and NetWorker software to interact during backups and recoveries
to:
• Ensure recovery of database files to their proper sequence in a database.
• Compile a history of files backed up for Lotus Notes/Domino databases."

It goes on to talk about the variables you need to add to the script, and states that XBSA is included in the module...
"This section contains descriptions and valid settings for each of the NetWorker
XBSA environment variables that can be added to a customized backup script.
The environment variables listed in Table 7 appear in the NetWorker XBSA
libraries included with the NetWorker Module for Lotus software."

Cheers
