Where does the “/” go?  I’m specifying a policy not a filesystem.  I did try using the date with the same format as I used in the bpflist command (mm/dd/yy  hh:mm:ss) with the same results.

Thanks

 

 

 

You need to put the "/" in the command.

 

By the way, I think that the default start time is 00:01 on the day that you run the command if you do not specify any start or end time.

That’s what is confusing.  I’m not entering the date, same as yesterday.  The default for the date is, start date = current date minus six months, end date is current date and time.  The command I’m using is: #  bplist –R 999 policy-name.  I just ran another test backup which did put data to tape.  The bplist command is still giving the “no entity was found” error and the bpflist gives the file name output.  Anybody got any ideas??

Thanks

 

 

 

 

Check your syntax and start/stop times very carefully.

Ok, I’m confused.  I began playing around with the bplist command you suggested yesterday and had good results.  Today I’m doing additional testing and the bplist command is showing “EXIT STATUS 227: no entity was found”  If I run the bpflist command against the same policy, I get a list of files that had been backed up.  Any suggestions as to why this is happening?

Thanks

 

 

 

I would not suggest using bpflist in this case.  Use bplist.

 

You can use the -l and / or -b option to show the size of the file and either the time stamp or the date backed up.

Our environment is HP-UX 11.11, Netbackup 5.1 MP3 backing up mostly HP unix with some Sun and Windows backups. 

I’m trying to find the field definitions for output of bpflist.  I have to pull the path and filename of files backed up and some of our users are using a space in their name.  Below is an example of a “bpflist –option GET_ALL_FILES –class policy-name  -client host-name –d 12/09/01  00:00:00  -e 12/31/10 00:00:00 “  command:

 

76 0 64 56 538839 1 0 0 1075773441 /bcv/corp/data/vault/tape/archive_southfield/D219 PSA LAYOUT.XIF 33188 210014 100 528582 1163080113 1163080113 1189688679

 

The filename ends after the above .XIF.  Two questions,

1. What is the field containing 33188 ?
2. Can I be assured that there will always be 6 fields after the file name field?

Thanks in advance.
