[Veritas-bu] Media id's not appearing in NB media database
2006-01-25 08:47:35
I have a similar situation. I have a tape that shows up in the media
list in the gui, but I can't delete it or anything. I get the message
that the volume is not in the NB database.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Media id's not appearing in NB media database
Hi all,
I am having problems with some of my media id's not appearing in the "NB
media database". I have attempted bplabeling the tape again, and then
assigning it with vmquery -assignbyid. Alas it seems I am back where I
started and I can see the tape using vmquery, but I cannot see the tape
using bpmedialist, and thus can also not freeze and unfreeze the tape. I
also know the backups will fail on those tapes that I cannot see with
the bp commands.
I only have one standalone Veritas Netbackup server with the tape drives
attached to it. Consequently supplying the -h switch to bpmedialist with
the host name doesn't help either.
So I would love to know how I can get this media id added to the NB
media database?
# /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/vmquery -m MPDY56
