I just run this every day in a script from cron. As no backups are
running the catalogues wont change so you have accurate info.
This script is pretty old and was from my 3.2 days so theres much better
ways of checking jobs are running.
I also then sync this over to a DR site with a backup server with the
same name. Then i can bprecover the first site catalogues and the
DR site will beable to read the tapes from the first site and restore to
alternate clients.
Hope it helps :-
