[Veritas-bu] Re: How to manually clean a tape drive

>From Veritas Advanced NetBackup 4.5 for Microsoft Windows participation
guide 100-001794 (this is where I found it)and Netbackup Media Manager

tpclean

The following initiates manual drive cleaning of drive1:

tpclean -C drive1  

Or C:\PATH\veritas\volmgr\bin\tpclean.exe -C drive1 (if the Windows
environment variables have not be updated) 

Good luck!

Hi,

  I just went for Netbackup Datacenter 4.5 on Linux to Windows. Does anyone
know how to clean a tape manually on NBU 4.5 on Windows 2000 Professional? I
can't find the button anywhere and can't find the documentation on how to do
it on command line either. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chester

The command should be the mostly the same and is found in:

~VERITAS\netbackup\bin\admincmd\bpduplicate.exe

Scripting in windows, on the other hand, is a different story....
