So I have this storage node, and we run a script every day, to delete
savesets that have already been cloned to tape. We write to disk
(adv_file), and then clone from there. While we prefer to keep 2 days
worth of backups on the disk, I have one storage node that doesn't have
enuough disk space, so on this node, I have to clear out the disk space,
after it's been cloned to tape. So I use:
SET machine=machine
SET tapevol=NWServer.023.RO
mminfo -r "ssid,cloneid,savetime" -q
"client=%machine%,volume=%tapevol%,copies>1"
And I get back:
396861745 1202168111 2/4/2008
4104799284 1202340915 2/6/2008
4088022108 1202340955 2/6/2008
(side question - I want to see the date and time - in 24 hr format - that
the save set was created. What should I use, instead of "savetime", to
show that?)
Main question: when I run:
mminfo -r "ssid,cloneid,savetime" -q "client=%machine%,volume=%tapevol%"
I get the same results. How is that possible? How can a query that asks
for everything, and a query that asks for just the subset that has
multiple copies, show the same result? Or am I totally misunderstanding
what this script is supposed to be doing? (it was created by the EMC
consultant who originally installed NetWorker here, about a year ago)
We use the results to do:
FOR /F "tokens=1-2" %%a in (%nwpath%\tmp\%machine%_ss_list.txt) do nsrmm
-y -d -S %%a/%%b
so that we clear out the adv_file device on the storage node.
