[Veritas-bu] Orphaned globDB entries

Hi all

Hope there’s someone out there with a quick answer…

We are about to upgrade a 5.1 Solaris master to 6.5.

nbcc was submitted to Symantec, all inconsistencies cleaned up.

I ran vmglob –listall to create output of device config and found some old, orphaned tape drive entries in globDB with only serial number (no device or host name).

We tried to delete the entry with ‘vmglob –delete –serial HU1052784L ‘. The command completed successfully, but the entries are still there:

#vmglob -listall -b

device

type device name serial number host name

------------------------------------------------------------------------

drive HPUltrium3-SCSI3 HU10616BRY <master>

drive HPUltrium3-SCSI HU1052784K <media>

drive - HU1052784L -

drive - HM008L3 -

drive - HM0057K -

drive - HM005K1 -

drive - HM0077K -

drive - HM003A6 -

drive - PXB15P2419 -

drive - PXB15P1398 -

Does anyone have any idea how to clean this up (preferably without having to delete and re-create all device entries)!

Our case engineer at Symantec seems to be ‘missing in action’.

Regards
