Issue/Introduction

It appears the DB backup is not running. Can you confirm?


This is the cron job:
# Run Vertica Backup
00 22 * * * su - dradmin -c "/opt/vertica/bin/vbr.py --task backup --config-file /opt/CA/dbbackup/backup_snapshot.ini"

Environment

Release : 19.1

Component : IM Reporting / Admin / Configuration

Resolution

The Vertica backup writes backup logs. In the .ini file you use for the backup command check the value of tempDir variable the logs should written there. You can use this log to verify if the backups are running.
