Offline option

Enable the Offline option to make the specified clients in the General tab unavailable for backups. By default, clients are online and included in the policies in which they are listed.

When the Offline option is selected for a client, no jobs are scheduled for that client. Since the client is not part of any job, no backup status will be listed for the client.

After enabling the Offline option, indicate the date and time when the clients are to be online again. The default setting is infinity, or approximately January 18, 2038, depending on the locale setting.

The ability to take clients offline is useful in a number of situations. For example, in the event of planned outages or maintenance, client systems can be taken offline to avoid the unnecessary errors that administrators would then need to investigate. This option can also be used to anticipate new clients in the system; listing them in policies but configuring them as offline until they are in place and ready to be used.

The following actions can be performed if a client is offline:

Offline clients continue to be included in any job if the job is already in progress.
Job retries that were started before the client was taken offline continue as normal.
Any duplication job that is associated with a storage lifecycle policy and an offline client continues to run until complete.
LiveUpdate jobs for offline clients are allowed to run.
Restore jobs can be run for offline clients.

An offline client is also affected in the following ways:

If a user attempts a manual backup for an offline client, the backup fails with a status code 1000, Client is offline. The user can either wait until the client is brought online again or bring the client online manually. Use either the NetBackup Administration Console or the bpclient command to do so before resubmitting the manual job.
Archive backups are not allowed for offline clients.
Administrators are not allowed to restart or resume jobs for offline clients.

Caution:

If the master server is offline, hot catalog backups cannot run.
