I have this MS SQL2005 database server that we backup using the NW SQL 
module. This server is an AFTD device, and so it writes the backup to 
disk. I need to delete one of those databases, to clear up room.

However, when I run

mminfo -r 
"ssid,cloneid,client,name,savetime(22),totalsize(2),copies,ssflags,clflags" 
-q "client=%machine%,volume=%tapevol%"

I get back:

How can I have NW tell me exactly what the database name is? One is named 
PROD, and one is UPGRADE (temp db used during a recent upgrade), and I'd 
like to make sure which one I am deleting. :-)

I'm assuming that the savesets follow the order of the backup, which 
according the the SQL module backup log, would mean the 2nd set shown 
above. But how can I verify that? I can't seem to find a way to have 
mminfo tell me the database name, so I can double check what I'm deleting.

NW 7.4 SP2 on Win2003; NW SQL module 5.1 SP1.

Thanks!
