Hi
We have to live with this. Veritas Netbackup 5.1 has local & master database.
it will show only tape drives attached to media server (in local database).
Netbackup 6.0 show all tape drives attached media servers (in master
database).
You might have 2 media servers sharing tape drives & it shows twice each tape
drives.
If you have more media servers sharing tape drive & it will show you more
tape drives.
Thanks

Does anyone find vmoprcmd frustrating in an SSO environment?
Up until recently we have been using the StorageTek SN6000 to virtualise our
tape drives and so we haven't needed to worry about SSO. As this product is end
of life we're now begining to switch back to using SSO. In netbackup 6 I am
having to run vmoprcmd twice to get enough information to up down tapedrives...
By the way, we run on Solaris Master and Media servers and the hostnames below
have been changed for security reasons. Our tape libraries are controlled by
ACSLS from StorageTek.
Here's an example below:
root at mediasvr2# vmoprcmd -d

In the above example for each physical drive, the drive index is the same but
on one of the other environments one of the media servers has it's drive
indexes different so both commands need to be run to work out which host has
which drive down by drive index. I am thinking of wrapping a perl script around
vmoprcmd to combine the two to give more useful output.
Has anyone done something like this already?
regards, Aaron
