Special Cases

If a file was deleted after it was backed up, and then an incremental backup was taken, CA VM:Backup displays not found by the domain in the file format column.

If a backup job was put on hold for any reason, with the HOLD command or by a job rollback, and is subsequently canceled, all report detail information is lost. Only the system log for the job is retained and printed. If a backup job was put on hold for any reason, with the HOLD command or by a job rollback, and is subsequently released to complete execution, only the report detail job information generated before the job being placed on hold is lost.

Note: You can change the report detail level for particular domains included in a backup job by using an exception file. For more information, see the REPORT record in the Template Programming Interface Guide or the chapter "Managing Exception and Exclusion Files" in the Administration Guide.

If a backup job is running when CA VM:Backup abends or if a backup job is placed on hold for any reason, restart recovery rebuilds all of the output listing (except file-level information) for all domains when the job is restarted. If part of the listing has already been sent to the virtual printer (before the abend or hold), that portion may also be printed.
