RE: [Veritas-bu] Copy Numberbpimagelist will show you if there are more
images that exist for that particular BID.

Incidentally, if you bpexpdate the disk image after you have already
duplicated it to tape, NBU should automatically change the PC to the only
existing copy left, in this case copy #2.

Please test this before implementing in production.  I would, but my lab is
in disarray right now...

  I've been watching this thread because I want to do the same thing.

  This command "bpimage -npc " doesn't change the actual copy number, it
just designates the "npc" copy as the "primary" copy - as the first choice
for file restoral.

  What I'd like, and perhaps Fernando, too, is to change copy #2 to be copy
#1.  I duplicate images from disk to tape, then delete the disk copy.  This
leaves copy #2 on tape, copy #1 deleted.  I'd like to then relabel the tape
copy as copy #1 so there's no confusion that this is the only version in
existence.

  Hi Fernando,

  I did not see a reply to this, so, here ya go...

  bpimage -npc 2 -backupid <image name>

  This will change the second copy to the primary copy.  Using vault, you
  should have a script in your vault/production dir called changecopy.sh
that
  may help you.

  Hi

  I've duplicated some tapes and want to change the copy
  number to 1, from the duplicated tape. I've tried
  bpduplicated -npc 1 -backupid, but didn't work.
  Does anybody can help?

  Thanks in advanced

  Fernando Braga
