How about:

#!/bin/ksh
DOWNDRIVES=`/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/vmoprcmd | grep DOWN | awk '{print $1}'`
if [ "$DOWNDRIVES" != "" ] ; then
   /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/vmoprcmd \
        | mailx -s "Down drives found: $DOWNDRIVES" root
   for each in $DOWNDRIVES
   do
      /usr/openv/volmgr/bin/vmoprcmd -up $each
   done
fi

Schedule as you please with cron.

Hi Guys - 

        We're still running Netbackup 5.0, and we are having the dreaded
DOWN-TLD problem when a job runs and can't connect to a server or fails.  We
have to live with it for just a little while longer, so I'm looking to write
a script that can check the status of the drive, and issue an UP Drive
command to bring them back up every 1/2 hour or so.  Does anyone have any
idea where to start to look for info on how to do this?

Thanks,

Jennifer
