Hi,

 

I think you can try vmdareq -a. This will show the status of all shared
drives per drive

 

BR,

Jim

Does anyone find vmoprcmd frustrating in an SSO environment? 

Up until recently we have been using the StorageTek SN6000 to virtualise our
tape drives and so we haven't needed to worry about SSO. As this product is
end of life we're now begining to switch back to using SSO. In netbackup 6 I
am having to run vmoprcmd twice to get enough information to up down
tapedrives... 

By the way, we run on Solaris Master and Media servers and the hostnames
below have been changed for security reasons. Our tape libraries are
controlled by ACSLS from StorageTek. 

Here's an example below: 

root at mediasvr2# vmoprcmd -d

root at mediasvr2# vmoprcmd -d -up 3 
root at mediasvr2# vmoprcmd -d -up 3 -h mediasvr1 


In the above example for each physical drive, the drive index is the same
but on one of the other environments one of the media servers has it's drive
indexes different so both commands need to be run to work out which host has
which drive down by drive index. I am thinking of wrapping a perl script
around vmoprcmd to combine the two to give more useful output. 

Has anyone done something like this already? 

regards, 

Aaron
