I had some similar issues, and I wanted to know what was going on with
all of our tapes, so...

Something interesting to do is run the consistency check.  This will
generate a report of consistency between your media db (bpmedialist),
the volume db (vmquery), and the images db (bpimmedia).  You can do this
with the bpdbm -consistency 2 I believe, but the Netbackup support
people actually have a better program they can run if you send them the
output of a vmquery -a, a bpimmedia, and a bpmedialist -l. =20

They will then send you back a report showing the following 6 scenarios.

(Some are worse than others).

1.)

Media ID's that show up in the Images Database but not in the Media
Database:

=20

2.)=20

Media ID's that show up in the Media Database but not in the Image
Database:



3.)

Media ID's that show up in the Images Database but are not assigned in
the Volume Database:

=20

4.)

Media ID's that show up in the Volume Database as assigned but not in
the Image Database:

=20

5.)

Media ID's that show up in the Media Database but are not assigned in
the Volume Database:

=20

6.)

Media ID's that show up in the Volume Database as assigned but not in
the Media Database:

=20

So of course, I want to be able to do this whenever I want, so I ask for
the program/script and they say its not available for public release, so
I wrote my own in perl, and it works.  It's a good tool to discover
dbase problems..
