Hi,
=20
You can do the following
=20
Phase 1
# nohup bpimport -create_db_info -id J819L2 -L /tmp/bpimport.phase1=20
Generate the image list
# bpimport -PM -s 01/01/04 15:00:00 -e 01/01/05 23:59:00 -id J81962 | =
awk '{print $5}' > /tmp/import_list
(the "-s" specify the start date and "-e" the end date)
Phase 2
# bpimport -Bidfile /tmp/import_list -L /tmp/bpimport.phase2 &
=20
After this you'll be able to restore the images in your expired tape.
=20
If the generation of the image list return an error code, you will need =
to expire the tape and repeat all the steps.
=20
Regards,
=20
Julio

>From the first media I tried restoring the expired images (using =
bpimport) & it succeeded.But the backup I req is in the second media, =
when I do the bpimport it gives the error
# ./bpimport -create_db_info -id J819L2
Import phase 1 started Fri Jun 24 2005 11:16:36
INF - Create DB information for media id J819L2.
INF - Initiation of bptm process to read media id J819L2 was successful.
INF - Status =3D cannot perform specified media import operation.
cannot import media that media id is already active on some other server =
<-- this message is coming in the activity monitor.
But I donot see this media being accessed or used any where.However I =
