[Veritas-bu] CLI vmupdate & vmquery mismatch
2002-09-24 17:09:33
The only thing I see that might be causing you a problem is that you are
specifying a robot host on the vmupdate, but not on the vmquery. Do you only
have one server? Is your default server the correct one? Try adding a "-h
nbuh2" to your vmquery command.
Also, you will probably want to use the "-use_barcode_rules" option or you'll
have potential problems, especially with cleaning tapes (nothing like trying to
write data to a cleaning tape; we've all been there...)
This is a simple little script I use every day to resync my database, and it
works without problems (it does nothing you aren't doing, but makes it "pretty"
to someone who isn't comfortable with command lines). It assumes that the robot
host is the same as you are logged on to:
###############################################################
# Netbackup path information
VM=/usr/openv/volmgr
VM_PATH=${VM}/bin
# Netbackup host and robot information
ROBOT_NUMBER=0
ROBOT_TYPE=tld
# Volume manager commands
VM_UPDATE=${VM_PATH}/vmupdate
##
## Program begins here
##
# Here we sync the robot with the volume database, just to be sure all is in
sync.
echo "Syncing volume database with robot..."
${VM_UPDATE} -rt ${ROBOT_TYPE} -rn ${ROBOT_NUMBER} -use_barcode_rules
echo "Done."
