Accidently marked all clients as “Scheduled backup”

Today I’ve marked all clients as “Scheduled backup” (by checkmarking the “Scheduled backup” box clients not in the group but under “clients”).

The backup jobs are already running, NSR auditlog is not activated, 99% of the clients are assigned to a group, a lot of clients are existing several times (e.g. with different retentions or different schedules) and altogether about 750 clients are configured.

The server release is NetWorker 8.2.4.4.

Questions: How can I check for clients have now the “Scheduled backup” selected, but haven’t had before? E.g. is there a way to select all clients which didn’t run between yesterday and first of April?

If rap logging was enabled, you could also look at /nsr/logs/rap.log to see what changes were done

Hi,

I found a solution: I've recovered the second latest backup of the NetWorker Server Resource Directory to /tmp. Afterwards I've used nsradmin to list all clients where scheduled backup is Disabled:

nsradmin -d  /tmp/res/nsrdb |tee /tmp/clients.txt

. type: nsr client ; scheduled backup: Disabled

show name; save set; scheduled backup

In the next step I've manually disabled those clients in the NetWorker GUI.

Thanks and regards

Michael
