The full list of volumes in the the VolDB, but it doesn't know about NBU
type stuff (netbackup status, kbytes, # restores, expiration, etc.). That
is all in the MediaDB, which is on each media server.
vmquery queries the VolDB and then uses commands like bpmedialist to get
the NBU info it needs for the report.
If the report finds a volume that is in the VolDB with an assigned status,
but can't find it in any of the MediaDBs, this is what is returned.
Two possible causes are:
1.) a media server was down (or ltid was down) when you ran the report.
2.) a media server was assigned the tape, but has since been improperly
decommisioned (e.g. the MediaDB wasn't tranferred to another media server
before it was shut off).

Subject: [Veritas-bu] available_media givies wrong info
Hi All,
i am facing a strange situation.
I am running NB4.5 with MP3 on SOlaris 7 as Master
Server. When i run available_media command on Master
server, it lists the media status.
but strangely on some volume pools , on some media, it
gives status column as "DBBACKUP"
but when i check thro jnbSA , it shows the status
correctly. I am able to read the contents of the tape
and also able to restore/backup using that media.
any clue on this????
Thanks in Advance
