[Veritas-bu] Clean up expired backups
2007-08-13 11:58:05
Hi,
We are running NetBackup 5.0 MP7 and it has been having problems
cleaning up the old/expired backups. I looked around and people
suggested using the following to address the issue:
# touch /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/CLEAN_IN_BACKGROUND
# /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpimage -cleanup -allclients
I also saw people using "bpexpdate -deassignempty -force".
Since our backups run 24x7 CLEAN_IN_BACKGROUND may not find a window to
run at all. So I am thinking to schedule a cron job to run 'bpimage
-cleanup -allclients' daily. My questions is: will "bpimage -cleanup
-allclients" clean up all the old/expired backups which in our case are
disk-to-disk backups on several different media servers?
Thanks,
Rongsheng
