[Veritas-bu] changing pool name

2005-12-14 Thread Simon I. Tetelbaum
Hi, I wanted to change the name of one of my media pools, but couldn't find a command to do this. Will I muck up netbackup somehow if I change the pool name by editing the /usr/openv/volmgr/database/poolDB file? I've tested this somewhat and had no problems, but I'm wondering if the pool

You should be ok then! Yes I checked, but I did wonder if a name change was not allowed, even by editing poolDB file! But if it works, its something I will take on board now :-) Simon Weaver Technical Support Windows Domain Administrator EADS Astrium Tel: 02392-708598 Email: [EMAIL

Re: [Veritas-bu] changing pool name

As far as I can tell, no. The image database knows the pool by number, not by name. If you print out the poolDB file, the first column is a number that netbackup associates with that pool. All images seem to reference that number rather than the pool name, so changing the pool name has no

I think the volDB stores pool by both name and number. You might get in trouble by changing the poolDB file. Do a vmquery -w -a to see both fields (fields 12 13). -M -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of WEAVER, Simon Sent: Wednesday, December

Re: [Veritas-bu] time for NDMP restores

2005-12-14 Thread william . d . brown
Did you request to restore files or folders? DAR is not supported for directory restores - so it is *very* important that you pick files to restore, and never folders. Otherwise it scans the whole tape, even if it already found what you wanted. William D L Brown Paul Keating [EMAIL

We're looking into this (NDMP backups) and the can't restore a directory problem might be an issue. If you want to restore a directory, then, you have to find every file from that point down restore it individually? Will it create missing subdirectories, ie: restoredir/file1 restoredir/file2
