An excellent pointed Email, and again exactly how my setup is configured
(with a few more volume pools, but its manageable and works)

have a HP ESL Library, but I have to manually tell the unit to clean the drives
(if they need cleaning) - Cannot get Netbackup to communicate with it for some
reason!

Hi Jim
thanks for this. My main concern was whether the nbpushdata
command would need the same amount of disk space that my catalog takes up -
presently its at 30gb and I have 25gb space. So did not know for sure what would
happen!

am guessing, this is because a "seperate" license is required, to enable this
feature?
would I be right or wrong.

This script will get you the tapes in the jukebox for a particular
volume pool. You will need to change the awk string where i search for
P1000 to match what you robot is on an sgscan.
The bit which just lists whats in the jukebox is echo s s | tldtest -r
device path to robot
#!/bin/sh
#set -x
If you are going to use the below i suggest you do an inventory prior as
this is what netbackup thinks is in the jukebox but ops could have been
in and changed things around as they are unpredictable sorts ;)
Inventory :-
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/vmupdate -x -rn 0 -rt tld -rh `uname -n` -vh
`uname
I don't know why you're getting that error, but it must be specific to

My questions and what I found out:
Can I revert from 6.0MPx to 5.1MP4 via a catalog backup? No, the
restore puts the actual EMM stuff back and does not down covert it
back to the 5.1 format.
After I installed 5.1MP4 again from scratch and ran ./bprecover -l
dpath /path/catalog, it appeared to
Silly me, I used -l instead of -r ;)

For 6.0, I will try 5.1 again with the right syntax this time :)

Backing up 6.0 via bpbackupdb and then restoring with bprecover works,
I just had the synax incorrect.
The correct syntax is:

Ok here goes, try and restore a 6.0 catalog backup with a 5.1MP4 master server.
logbash-2.03# /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bprecover -dpath
/local/catalog -r

Ok, here is a cleanly installed NetBackup 5.1 installation.
Next, it was patched to 5.1 mp4, yeah 5.1 mp5 is out, but I am using mp4.

There's no monolithic command for this, you have to parse a bit:

The only worrying thing was i didn't want to leave it to chance that the

We're in the process of rearchitecting our BUR infrastructure. The most
profound change will be the addition of disk storage, as we are 100%
tape, right now. We're considering a few different disk technologies,
such as VTL, DataDomain NAS heads, as well as traditional DSU/DSSUs.
I've heard
Steve,
Works fine as long as you're at least MP4. Prior to that DSSUs would
stage the files in the filesystem sequentially regardless of retention
levels. Thus if you're not mixing retention on a tape (but are on the
filesystem) you could have the situation where tapes are constantly
being
You can't share DSSU amongst multiples media servers.
You can't create DSSU-groups (ie when one is full, switch to
another..apparantly fixed in 6.0)
DSSU are mapped one-to-one to volume pools, when de-staging.
Previous to 5.0MP4, (unsure about 5.1) DSSU's might not purge in time
for backups and
I have been using DSSU since 5.1 came out.
But I have primarily used it for very slow clients so that I didn't block my
tapedrives with these backups.
It has been working really fine, except the lack of configuration and
performance/tuning. And it has been really easy to use.

DSSU sizing is really important. If the Disk runs out then you start
getting status 84's and jobs fail. This seems reasonable except that
NBU does not free up the space for the failed jobs until the jobs are
restarted. If the job is a large one then you could get several more
backup failures
can a licensed SAN media server be used to restore data to a client other than itself?
Interesting. We have had similar issues with NBU DSSUs.
The HPSS (www.hpss-collaboration.org/hpss) seems to be the best option,
combined with ACSLS, for our environment.
We have HPSS running with other equipment in one of our scientific
divisions (www.nersc.gov) and they just rave about its
With the recording speeds of todays tape drives, you have to put some
kind of disk in front of them, to ensure you have a steady stream of
data to record. Without it, your just going to wear out the drives,
even faster than before. And no matter how fast tape drives get, they
will never
What major changes I'll have to do incase the OS is Linux.
