Server Directed Archive?

[CallwaveEmp]

I cannot find anything in the docs about setting up a server directed archive. Only User-Archive shows up in the box. Is there such a thing?

A user directed archive is initiated by a server but is classified as a user-archive - I think that the question you are asking is that they are actually one and the same.

The scheduling tabs disappear when I slect user-archive. How do I schedule them?
(My clients and servers are Win2k, Veritas is v.4.5)

You don't schedule a user-directed archive - At least not in the normal way.

You set up the policy, add a "User Archive" as the type of backup" and specify the window that you want it to run in.

Create an NT scheduled job using task scheduler:
install_path\NetBackup\bin\bparchive [-p policy] [-s schedule][-L progress_log [-en]] [-S master_server1,master_server2,...]] [-t policy_type] [-w [hh:mm:ss]] [-help] [-k "keyword_phrase"] -f listfile | filenames

Example that I have ...
D:\srvapps\veritas\NetBackup\bin\bparchive -c pcac_kickstart_nt_drives -s log_removal -t 13 -f filelist -L D:\srvapps\veritas\BackupResults\Archive_Results.txt
