Table 52. nvjobabort

nvjobcreate

Description

Create and schedules a backup or restore job. You can also use this utility to save a job definition without scheduling it.

The nvjobcreate utility does not provide any option to configure the Restore Options. These options must be included in the Restore Selection Set. The nvsetcreate utility provides an option that can be used to specify Restore Options in the Restore Selection Set. For more information, see nvsetcreate.

Syntax

nvjobcreate [-servername <NetVault Backup Server Name>] -jobtitle <Job Title> [-type <Job Type>] -selectionsetname <Backup or Restore Selection Set Name>
[-selectionoptionssetname <Backup Options Set Name>]
[-schedulesetname <Schedule Set Name>] [-backupoption <Backup Option>=<value>]
[-targetsetname <Target Set Name>] [-advoptssetname <Advanced Options Set Name>]
[-jobidfile <Output Filename>] -submit -parameters <Parameter Filename> [-version]

Options

Table 53. nvjobcreate
Option	Description
-servername	Specifies the name of the NetVault Backup Server that administers the job. This option is required when a remote server administers the job. It can be omitted when a local server administers the job. The server name is case‑sensitive.
-jobtitle	Specifies the name of the job.
-type	Specifies the job type: backup or restore. The default value for this option is “backup.”
-selectionsetname	Specifies the name of the Backup or Restore Selection Set. You can use the NetVault WebUI or the nvsetcreate utility to create this set.
-selectionoptionsset name	Specifies the name of the Backup Options Set. This option must be specified when creating a backup job. If you do not specify this option while creating a backup job, the job is created successfully. However, when you try to run the job from the CLI or WebUI, it reports an error and fails. When you try to view the job definition from the WebUI, the Manage Job Definitions — View Job page does not show any details.
-schedulesetname	Specifies the name of the Schedule Set. The job is scheduled to run immediately if you omit this option. You can use the NetVault WebUI or the nvsetcreate utility to create this set.
-backupoption	Specifies Backup Options for a job. To use this option, you require the “Tag ID” of the option that you want to set. The Tag ID can either be the backup option name as recognized by the CLI or a numeric value assigned to the option by NetVault Backup. Both of these values are grouped under the [Plugin Options] section in the nvsetmodify.cfg file. The format for specifying this option is: -backupoption <Tag ID>=<value> Example: -backupoption <Tag ID>=True/False
-targetsetname	Specifies the name of the Target Set. You can use the NetVault WebUI or the nvsetcreate utility to create this set. If you do not specify a Target Set, the default target options displayed on the NetVault WebUI are used.
-advoptssetname	Specifies the name of the Backup or Restore Advanced Options Set. You can use the NetVault WebUI or the nvsetcreate utility to create this set. If you do not specify an Advanced Options Set, the default target options displayed on the NetVault WebUI are used.
-jobidfile	Specifies the name of the output file that stores the Job ID. This option is useful if the nvjobcreate utility is configured to return the exit status instead of Job ID. For more information about the configuration option, see the Quest NetVault Backup Administrator’s Guide. You can provide an absolute or a relative path for the file. The file stores the Job ID as a string. You can use a script to read this string. This file must be deleted manually after use.
-submit	Schedules a job and lists it as an active job. If you omit this option, the job definition is only saved and not scheduled to run. You can schedule it later using the nvjobmodify utility.
-parameters	Reads options from a parameter file. You can use any text editor to create the parameter file. Specify one option with its value per line and omit “-” before the option. Use spaces or tabs to separate the option and values. To include comments, begin the line with a “#” character. Example: # nvjobcreate example file jobtitle cli job 1 selectionsetname cliselset This file can be used with the -parameters option as follows: ./nvjobcreate -parameters example.txt
-version	Displays the build date of the NetVault Backup distribution installed on the machine.

Note

After using the nvjobcreate command to create one or more jobs, if you run the following nvreport command, the Scheduler may crash:

nvreport -class “Defined Jobs” -format “%SelectionOptions”

Workaround: From the NetVault WebUI, open the jobs for editing and save them without any changes.

Examples

•

Create an Incremental Backup job using the Backup Selection Set “CLIENT 1 Full Data Backup” and Schedule Set “Repeating 1.” The job name is “Incremental Backup of CLIENT1” and the job is administered by a local NetVault Backup Server:

nvjobcreate -jobtitle “Incremental Backup of CLIENT1” -type backup
-selectionsetname “CLIENT 1 Full Data Backup”
-backupoption ntfsopt_typeincr=true -schedulesetname “Repeating 1” -submit

•

Create a restore job using the Restore Selection Set “RestoreFull” and submit the job to run immediately. The job name is “Restore of Full Backup” and the backup job was administered by a remote NetVault Backup Server “SERVER2.”

nvjobcreate -jobtitle “Restore of Full Backup” -servername SERVER2
-type restore-selectionsetname RestoreFull -submit

nvjobdelete

Description

Deletes jobs that match the specified criteria.

Syntax

nvjobdelete [-servername <NetVault Backup Server Name>]
[-jobid <Job ID>] [-type <Job Type>]
[-jobrange <Job ID-Job ID>] [-jobtitle <Job Title>] [-client <Client Name>]
[-plugin <Plug-in Name>] [-selectionsetname <Selection Set Name>]
[-schedulesetname <Schedule Set Name>] [-targetsetname <Target Set Name>]
[-advoptssetname <Advanced Options Set Name>] [-force] [-scheduleonly] [-version]

-servername	Specifies the name of the target NetVault Backup Server.
-jobid	Specifies the ID of the job that you want to delete. Only one Job ID can be specified with this option.

-jobrange	Specifies a range of Job ID numbers corresponding to a series of jobs that you want to delete. Use a hyphen to separate the start and end Job ID numbers. Example: -jobrange 30-45
-jobtitle	Specifies the name of the job that you want to delete. You must provide the full name and enclose the name in quotation marks. Example: -jobtitle “Full_Backup_1” The -jobtitle option deletes a single job. You can use the -jobrange option with the -jobtitle option to delete multiple jobs that use the same job title.
-client	Specifies the name of the NetVault Backup Client that served as target for the jobs. Use this option to delete all jobs for the specified client. Example -client “NV_Client_MKTG”
-plugin	Specifies the name of the plug-in used to perform the jobs. Use this option to delete all jobs that were performed using a particular plug-in. The plug-in name must be enclosed in quotation marks. Example: -plugin “File System”

-targetsetname	Specifies the name of the Target Set that was used to create the jobs.
-advoptssetname	Specifies the name of the Advanced Options Set that was used to create the jobs.
-force	Deletes matching jobs that are scheduled to run. If a job that meets the criteria set by other option is in queue (scheduled to run later), any attempt to delete it fails. Use the “-force” option to delete such jobs.
-scheduleonly	Remove jobs from the job queue without deleting them from the NetVault Database. Use this option in lieu of -force.
-version	Displays the build date of the NetVault Backup distribution installed on the machine.

When any of these options are used alone in the syntax, all instances of a job that meet the set parameters are deleted. For example, the following command deletes all jobs for the Plug-in for FileSystem:

•

Delete jobs with the following Job ID numbers: 1, 5, range 7-12, range 15-19:

nvjobdelete -jobid 1 -jobid 5 -jobrange 7-12 -jobrange 15-19

Delete all backup jobs that have the job name “Backup of Client-A” and job ID numbers between 70 and 100:

nvjobdelete -type backup -jobtitle “Backup of Client-A” -jobrange 70-100
