Monitoring and Backups

Hello,

I am in charge of all of our monitoring and backups. One of the things that I have been wanting to do is eliminate all alerts that are not necessary. Specifically, each night when NetBackup runs its jobs about 10 systems trigger drive space alerts and reset after the backups complete.

Has any one out there come up against this issue and what did you do to remedy it?

Thanks in advance,

we have this exact same issue with disk space alerts during backups.

we use both NetBackup and Avamar and will soon be finished using NetBackup...but the issue still happens nightly.

i wonder if there is any way to link to APM monitoring the NetBackup process where if it had CPU greater than zero then use Alert SUPPRESSION to suppress the alert trigger.

i don't know how to use both a volume space table and an APM monitored process in Advanced Alerts or if this is even possible.

just a thought...
