Subject: DBBACKUP - available_media - produces erroneous info...
To: netbackup_interest AT sun DOT com

Hello,

It appears the NetBackup script :


   (/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/available_media)

for NBU version 3.2a seems to report erroneous errors.  (running under sol 2.6)
 Currently, I run this script and produce the results to a web page that also
runs a tape summary count by pool.  However, the results given reflect that
the DBBACKUP counts are way off.  Actually, I only have 2 DBBACKUP tapes but
the report generates numbers that are much higher.


I decided to put a sanity_ck routine into my script that accounts for any
DBBACKUP counts over 4 and rerun the report again.  Funny enough the report's
continually spit out a variety of numbers for DBBACKUP that are irregular
and not correct.  An example of the script execution reruns can be seen below
as a result of my code.  Just ignore the line count stuff...

Anyone know why this should be happening and how to fix it.

Please advise,


Thanks,


At Your Service,
