Re: [Networker] Cloning from VTL to Tape

Well, generally there's two ways to do cloning. The first is as a save
group, you flip a flag to clone at group completion. The only other
option
IMO is by listing the savesets into a file and using nsrclone commands.
The issue I've had with cloning is it inevitably fails at some point,
leaving you to cleanup the mess and try again!

Hey all, I looked through the forum and couldn't really find
anything on this, but I hope I'm not revisiting an old topic.
I'm a new backup admin for Directv and need a little help. In our
datacenter, we have two Networker servers, bkupcr1 and bkupcr2, both
running Networker 7.3.2 on RedHat Linux 4.3 32-bit. Bkupcr1 is the
nsrhost with an attached ADIC Scalar 24 tape drive, while bkupcr2 is
a storage node with an attached Clariion Disk Library.
Each night, data is backed up to the CDL. There are three pools
(INDEX, SERVERS, and FS) on the CDL. Indexes go to the INDEX pool,
bkupcr1-2 filesystems and MMC database go to SERVERS, and all other
client filesystems go to FS. What I want to do is have that data
cloned to a clone pool on tape. Maybe not every day, but at least
once a week.
I've tested the following command:
# nsrclone -s bkupcr1 -b 'CDL Clone' VT0025
This clones a volume on the CDL to a Clone pool on tape. This test
was successful. Is there a way to clone an entire pool at once? What
would be the best way to do this?
If there's any other information I need to include, please let me
know. Thanks in adnvance!
