Think my other reply got filtered... forgot screenshots need approval...

===========

Command line:

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bpimmedia  -U -mtype 2

(first column is copy number)

 

Trusty GUI:

- Via catalog search “verify”...

- search for copy 1, copy 2,

- dump both into Excel,

- anything with two entries is a duplicate and has two copies)

You can parse bpimagelist for the information you are looking for. 

 

bpimagelist -L -backupid $image

 

However, if you are using a VTL with deduplication expiring backups may not free up much space.

Hello Experts,



We are on nbu6.0 mp6 and I would like to know if there is anyway to find the backup ids that have 2 copies? Our filesystem/database backups with long term retention (mostly infinity) first go to virtual tapes and then get duplicated to physical. I would like to find this out and expire those backup ids that have 2 copies as we are out of virtual scratch tapes.

Thanks,

Dushyant Mehta
