Re: [Veritas-bu] bpimport

I humbly disagree. Phase 1 creates the header file under client's images folder. This is where the expiration date lives.
Phase 2 creates the .f info.

Phase 1 import has nothing to do with image expiration.

It is not an image until phase 2 has been done and the image file has
been created in the netbackup/db/images directory.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] bpimport - Phase I Issue

All,

I've been importing several hundred media for a big restore job, and
something funny has happened to many of my media. Before starting the
import I switched all my retentions on the import server to infinity.
Then I imported all the media. Now it appears that only some of the
images are available. When I run the following command on any given
media:

bpimport -PM -s 01/01/1971 00:00:00 -e 09/20/2009 23:59:59 -id IN2233

I get several of the following errors:

INF - Skipping backup id <Exchange Cluster Name>_1104559223, it is
expired

Is this image really expired? I seem to remember something about Phase
I imports only lasting 7 days, but I thought setting all the retention
periods to infinity would help with that. My next step is to re-import
the same media and see if I can restore then. Anyone run into this
before? I've run the same command against media that I've scanned just
a few days ago and I've got the same issue. I'm not really sure where
to go with this one.

Thanks,

-Jonathan
