Abstract

Techniques described herein relate to a method for reporting database backup information. The method may include starting a monitor process; generating a flag file for the database backup comprising a parent process identifier (PID) of a parent process of a first child process; associating a second child process with the monitor process by identifying the flag file using the parent PID; receiving channel close alerts from the child processes; making a first determination that backup jobs performed in a first channel were successful; making a second determination that backup jobs performed in the second channel were successful; and transmitting, based on the first determination and the second determination, a backup success report to a backup coordinator.
