Thanks, Wanda. This should suit my needs nicely.

Try the export node preview=yes using the syntax for export to media, not the 
export for server-to-server.
Don't know why the difference, but doing it that way doesn't trigger the 
mounts.  (I don't understand why doing it the server-to-server way DOES trigger 
mounts with PREVIEW=YES).

Subject: [ADSM-L] How much active data?

COPY ACTIVE has a preview option to tell me which volumes I'd need, but is 
there a simple way to compute how active data I have? QUERY OCCUPANCY doesn't 
have a useful parameter for that. For some reason, EXPORT NODE tries to mount 
each volume, even with PREVIEW=YES, which doesn't help me -- I'm investigating 
ACTIVE pools precisely because I can't fit my tapes in my library!

I'd like to avoid SELECT commands against BACKUPS or CONTENTS.

Thanks,

This was discussed about 10 days ago, and there was an excellent and logical
response which I immortalized in http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts
under "Active files, number and bytes".  By definition, Active files are
those still on the client, and Filespace numbers reflect the current
state of the client file system.

How much active data is allocated for a client?

2003-08-21 Thread Sung Y Lee
Hi everyone,

I am looking for a select SQL statement  that will allow me to this similar
to "export node NONENAME filedata=backupactive preview=yes"   I am trying
to find out how much active backup data is allocated for a client.  In my
case for several  nodes.  I can run export all day, but I figure if there
must be a easier way.

Thanks
