Re: [Veritas-bu] NBU Advanced Reporter
Simon, I looked at all those and others including CommandCentral Service and Bocada. Save yourself time, just buy the Aptare StorageConsole. Besides NBAR requires a separate license and if that meets your needs then just upgrade to NBU6 and use the free NOM (aka CCS lite) John T.

Re: [Veritas-bu] Command Line??
In a wintel environment I just put this
together last week. A few minor update's are needed but you should
be able to get that done easily. I gathered data from the
master servers and logged that data to a remote hidden share.
The Echo command in the final for loop
under the label ::'loop client list ' will need to be tailored to your
environment. I had more than enough data from this and was able to
extract the needed data.
As for MPs/FP's, you will not always
get the proper MP level. Rather you will see,
4.5GA, (includes FP1, FP2),
4.5_FP3 (includes 4.5_FP4/5),
4.5_FP6 (includes FP7+)
5.0GA (includes
MP1/2)

I'm guessing you mean DSSU. Anyway, i have noticed that you can no longer set the high and low water mark with MP2. Specifically using the Windows Gui connecting to a Unix master/media. I'm pretty sure you could set it in MP1 and GA. MP3 ;) should be out any day now.

RE: [Veritas-bu] List of tapes required for a restore from a client
First you need to find the exact start time of the backup you want to restore, you can run bpimagelist.exe. The syntax is bpimagelist -U -client SERVER01 -d mm/dd/ -e mm/dd/ where SERVER01 is the name of the server that needs to be restored, and mm/dd/ is the date of the backup Next you use the -media flag to see what volume(s) were used for that backup: (Of course you could skip the first command if you know the specifics of the targeted backup job ahead of time.) bpimagelist -media -U -client SERVER01 -d 04/01/2005 19:46 -e 04/01/2005 19:46 John T [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/28/2005 09:30 AM To [EMAIL PROTECTED], veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu cc Subject RE: [Veritas-bu] List of tapes required for a restore from a client If you are using a Unix Java Gui - you can use the Preview button in BAckup/Archive/Restore window.

So what is different in all of my environments compared to yours? Any ideas why I need this option and most others do not seem to need it,? Support said they dunno why, so they closed it as I have a work around. I'm a bit uncomfortable as the support person said this command was for flash backups hence the f in the command name.
