Running a backup from a client manually from the command line

C:\Program Files\legato\nsr\bin>save –vv –s ServerName –b PoolName pathname > TextfilePath 2>&1

-vv puts into Verbose mode for greater detail in debugging

-s Specifies the Networker server

-b specifies the pool of tapes to choose from

For example:


Save –vv –s NetworkerServer –b Default C:\backup_path > c:\legato.txt 2>&1


Run this command manually from the client computer to save the path C:\backup_path to a Default tape on the Networker server in verbose mode which saves the output to a file called legato.txt
