All,

Some suggested ideas:

Vmglob - This only displays things that are configured in NetBackup, not the 
devices seen from the hardware level. Use this command to query the Global 
Device Database.

Tpautoconf -a - This does some sort of reconfiguration on all devices. I got 
mixed results using this.

Tpautoconf -t - This command gave me the info I needed. It shows serial number 
and device file (Tape0, Tape1 etc).

I have finished my quick and dirty drive configuration script for Windows. If 
there is any interest, I will post it.


Thanks,


Kris

Assunto: [Veritas-bu] Windows Drive Configuration

 Guys,



I'm looking for a Windows NetBackup command that will list out all the
information containted in the screen pulled up by clicking on the
"Browse" button when adding a new drive.

When I add a drive to a Windows media server from my windows master, I
click on hosts then the appropriate media server. Then I say add new
drive and click this browse button. I'm then given a screen with the
following info:

Device Name        Identifier            Port      Bus        Target
LUN         Serial Number
Tape0              IBM Ultrium            3         1           1
0          6811329622
Tape1              IBM Ultrium            4         1           0
0          6811329623


I just need a command that will list the above info. I'm writing a drive
configuration script for our SSO enviroment so that I don't have to
configure 20 drives on 30+ servers. I'm pretty sure that the only way to
make sure that I name the drives correctly is to compare everything back
to the serial number. I don't think I can rely on Windows to always show
Tape0 as serial number 6811329622. I want to make sure I name Drive0
(Serial 6811329622) the same on all hosts and not have Drive0 be serial
6811329623 on host 2.

Hope this is making sense......I'm under the gun here.


Thank in advance guys


Kris
