[Veritas-bu] SLP duplications for VMDK (flashbackup-windows) images.

2012-07-06 Thread John Meyers

Hi All, Environment Linux RHxx NBU 6.5.6. If I run bpimagelist -stl_complete I get output. If I run nbstlutil list or stlilist there is no output. If I run the above with a backupid from the bpimagelist output, still nothing. The same applies if I use a client name or a mediaid, nothing.

When running Storage Life Cycle Policies, jobs queue up for duplication. When the duplication jobs run, it first allocates a tape drive, then searches for a tape. If either the source or destination tape it needs is already in use, the duplication job sits there queued, waiting for the tape.
