Monitoring an External Backup

To monitor the external backup status, use the onstat -g -bus command. To find blocked coservers, use the xctl onstat - command. For more information, see Using the onstat -g bus Option.

To monitor the external backup status in the sysmaster database, use the following SQL queries. For more information, see Backup Scheduler SMI Tables.

# to find all blocked coservers
SELECT * FROM sysbuobject 
WHERE is_block = 1 AND is_coserver = 1;

# to find all blocked coservers in my session
SELECT * FROM sysbuobjses WHERE os_ses_id = "my_session";
