Re: [Veritas-bu] bpduplicate -cn on Windows?

Yes it can. On 6.0 I imported some old DLT media. Ran a copy from DLT (Copy 1) to LTO (Copy 2.) Then I expired the copy 1 and duplicated from copy two to copy 3 (total of 3) which became the new copy 1. If copy #1 is missing, any duplication you make becomes copy 1. (and I would assume 2 3 4 etc... the lowest available copy number.)

I believe that Rolf is actually asking whether bpdulicate can successful make copies of images other than the primary (and in your case, copy 1 was probably the primary).

(I can't actually answer the question. I don't keep NBU master servers on Windows, and this would be one more reason not to.)

I have used it in the past on a windows 2003 server/NBU 6.0MP4 to create duplicates from the 1^st copy of an image. I believe that is what you are asking.

Hello,

Is there anyone who can confirm or deny that the -cn switch for the bpduplicate command only works on Unix and not on Windows?

Thanks
