I had this identical command 2 days ago (Sunday) and was able to run this
command from the Media Server, but when I used the H command, it had no
effect!!

Is there a reason for this?

Steven:

bpmedialist is a Netbackup CLI, therefore it will query the mediaDB's for
ALL
of the media servers under the Master's Domain.  The errors are accurate
given
the fact that the other media servers do not have that mediaID in their DB.

If you want to run this command and not have all of those errors use the

-h

option and pass it the media server host name for it to query.

bpmedialist -ev $ID -h $MEDIA_SERVER

PS.  Incidentally, if you were to use any of the CLI's in
the /usr/openv/volmgr/bin directory, then the volHost information would
matter,
but when you are executing NBU CLI's it typically does not.
