About VxUL logs

Some NetBackup commands or processes write messages to their own log files.
Other processes use Veritas unified log (VxUL) files. VxUL uses a standardized
name and file format for log files. An originator ID (OID) identifies the process
that writes the log messages.

Table 6-2

shows the NetBackup logs for disk-related activity.

The messages that begin with a

sts_

prefix relate to the interaction with the

storage vendor software plug-in. Most interaction occurs on the NetBackup media
servers.
