db is about the "data" on tape.

database is about the "tapes" themselves.

vmquery -a -bx queries 'database' on the master.

bpimagelist queries 'db' on the master.

bpmedialist queries 'mediaDB' on each media server.

Hi Mark,


I am really trying to figure out the differences between:

/usr/openv/netbackup/db 

and

/usr/openv/volmgr/database

I read the database section in the troubleshouting
guide, but it does not cover the volmgr/database
entry. Where are these databases stored (media/master)?
Any idea what the purpose of each is?

Thanks,
Ryan
