[Networker] Dates for clones?

No this isn't about some funky experiment with petridish dating games.


Ok, so my sense of humor is strange and I suck at telling jokes, that's
why I'm an admin right?

Currently we use this command to get a list of SSID's to clone off to
tape from file storage:

/usr/sbin/mminfo -s $legatoserver -t 'last month' -q
'level=full,pool=ONSITE' -v -o tR -r
'client,name,ssid,ssflags,nsavetime,copies,totalsize'

The script is doing some magic with sizes to limit the size cloned each
run.  ssflags is checked for a "v" for valid of course.

When the sets pass the checks it's added to a list to backup with the
command:

/usr/sbin/nsrclone -s $legatoserver -b '$pool' -S $ssids

My main concern though is the "last month".  Will this get sets that
somehow were missed and are older than 1 month?  In my list of "volumes"
I select one of my file devices and hit the top of the list.  There are
items that are 5+ months old that are aborted, recycleable and
"browseable".  The last of which makes me wonder if it has been cleaned
from the system correctly.


There is a separate script that runs after this one which should be
going through cleaning up what has been cloned off to tape, I'm still
trying to make sense of his logic.
