I have a script that reports on media inconsistencies, I know it works
under 4.5 and 5.1, not sure about 6.0 because we aren't there yet...

Subject: [Veritas-bu] netbackup DB inconsistency ?

 

Hey all,

I have a mind boggling problem, I have a bunch of media which is the
following:

- when reports run on the pool, it is reported as protected for 1 year

- when i run bpexpdate on any media to expire it immediately, my system
reports that the media does not exist

- when i run media contents report of any of those media, i get a bunch
of backup IDs which do not show up in the "client backups" report

- when i run bpexpdate on the backup IDs themselves, i also get that no
backup ID exists with the ID i listed

- when i try to erase the media, NB says its assigned and cannot be
erased

What i am trying to do is delete these media and redefine them (as if
completely new) without changing their barcode IDs.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

NB: Is there a utility or something which will fix inconsistencies
inside the database ? maybe and export/import thing which will
automatically do a "cleanup" of old/invalid/inconsistent entries ?

Regards,

Wessam Aly
