[Veritas-bu] Changing labels
2000-09-14 14:19:05
duplicate the images from the tape with the damaged
label to the tape with the new label (if you haven't
already duplicated the images on this tape before, NBU
only allows 2 copies to exist)
You can do this from the GUI or command line, its your
preference.
Before doing that I would do the following (you'll need
the info later)
bpduplicate -s 1/1/70 -id DAMAGED_LABEL -PM > /tmp/outf
This command will give you a listing of all the images
on the damaged piece of media (again given that you
haven't already duplicated some or all of the images)
Then once that is done, make the tape with the new
label the new primary copy (npc) with the following
command.
for i in `cat /tmp/outf | awk '{print $5}'`
do
bpduplicate -npc 2 -backupid $i
done
This will set copy 2 as your primary copy. Then if you
want you can bpexpdate the old tape with the bad label,
or just leave it until all images have expired
naturally.
Hope this helps
