About debug logging

The NetBackup master server and client software offers a comprehensive set of debug logs for troubleshooting problems that can occur during NetBackup operations. Debug logging is also available for Domino server backup and restore operations.

See the following topics for information on how to create the logs and how to control the amount of information written to the logs.

After you determine the cause of the problem, disable debug logging by removing the previously created debug logging directories. Details are available on the contents of these debug logs.

See the NetBackup Troubleshooting Guide.

Additional information about NetBackup client logs and NetBackup master server logs is available.

See the online help for the Backup, Archive, and Restore interface.

See the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I.

Note:

When debug logging is enabled, the files can become large. The same files are used by normal file backups.
