In regard to: [Networker] reporting volumes on retention, ianc said (at...:
I need to cross charge for the amount of data held on retention at a per
GB rate. What I don't know, is to how to work out how much data we have
on retention? Hopefully, I don't need to go through the whole index - as
some of it is on tape itself, and it would probably take forever to do -
and I need to do it every month.
I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but it sounds like you need
to determine how much data one or more of your backup clients has backed
up.
If that's the case, one place to start would be with the mminfo command.
Look at the "totalsize" attribute. For example:
$ mminfo -ot -q 'client=dogbert.cc.ndsu.nodak.edu' \
-r 'savetime,level,totalsize,nfiles' | head -n 10
date lvl total nfiles
01/29/06 full 931985788 8027
01/29/06 full 235579736 4057
01/29/06 full 2605812548 20990
01/29/06 full 1262993776 40250
01/29/06 full 903708304 37049
01/29/06 full 183948472 5509
01/29/06 full 121711972 2654
01/29/06 incr 28845060 20
01/29/06 incr 28888496 59
To get the number you're looking for, just report totalsize and then add
the numbers up using whatever method you like:
$ mminfo -ot -q 'client=dogbert.cc.ndsu.nodak.edu' \
-r 'totalsize(22)' | add-column.awk
# of lines not matching: 0
# of lines matching : 2568
# of lines total : 2568
Total of the lines : 5.73645e+11
