Re: [Networker] NSRCK -L7 question

We do this all of the time, as our browse time is only 3 months. We even
have to restore indexes that are almost 5 years old (pre-Katrina data).
Command:
nsrck -L7 -t 03/01/10 clientname
That will restore the index for the client, to 3/1. You will not have
to do it for each saveset, with the exception of below.
Just a heads up - bootstrap doesn't mean anything when you are talking
about restoring indexes. You will need to have a backup tape that has
indexes on it. If those are expired, or don't exist, you won't be able
to restore indexes. You will have to use the scanner command (to rebuild
the index), or do a saveset restore.

Subject: [Networker] NSRCK -L7 question
So I will be needing to do a "nsrck -L7", to rebuild client indexes,
that
have expired. I've never done that, so I have a couple questions:
I've read that I can do a "-t nsavetime -c client", to rebuild the index
for a specific saveset. But what if I want to rebuild the index for a
specific client, from whatever is on the tape? For example, I have a
bootstrap tape for 2008-06-30. If I wanted to rebuild all the indexes
for
a specific client for that client for that date, do I need to do a "-t
nsavetime -c client" for each saveset? Or will "-c client" rebuild all
the
indexes that are on the tape, for that client?
I have a client that has 10 savesets in each job; I'd rather not issue
the
command 10 times, to rebuild the indexes for all those savesets, for a
job
run on a certain date.
Will nsrck know to only rebuild whatever client indexes are on the
currently loaded tape? Or will issuing just a "-c client" want to see
all
the bootstrap tapes I've ever made?
Basically, I want to mount that bootstrap tape, and tell networker to
rebuild all the client indexes for "client-1" that are on that
particular
tape, preferably using one command (or rebuild all indexes made for
"client-1 " on a certain date, that are on that tape).
Is that possible?
