Hi Michael,


I am exporting to tape....from a TDP for Exchange backup made earlier 
today....I need to send the tape away...

Here is the command I am using:

export node vtswprms03 filedata=all devclass=ltoclass2 fromdate=03/11/2009 
fromtime=13:00:00 scratch=YES


I was wondering if I should use filedata=BACKUPACTIVE instead of ALL....

The backup is about 157GB and it was a full backup operation issued from the 
TDP for Exchange GUI at the exchange server. It started at 01:07pm I guess....

The problem is that nothing seems to be happening....the output of the q 
process command didn´t show the "Backup Files" part, in bytes.....only 
Filespaces and Nodes....that´s why I think that something is wrong...

Mario

Hi,

are you exporting to server or tape? "q progess" should give you some more
information than that (bytes transferred, input volume, number of files)
when exporting to server. If this information is missing, your export might
have some problems. Check "q act" if there are problems..
