NAME

vmcheckxxx - Report the media contents of a robotic library

SYNOPSIS

install_path\Volmgr\bin\vmcheckxxx -rt robot_type -rn robot_number [-rh

robot_host] [-h EMM_server | volume_database_host] [[-if

inventory_filter_value] [-if inventory_filter_value] ...] [-full]

[-list]

DESCRIPTION

Report the media contents of a robotic library and optionally compare its contents with

the volume configuration.

If no options are specified, the media contents of the robot and the volume configuration

are listed along with a list of any mismatches detected.

This command can be executed by any authorized users. For more information about

NetBackup authorization, refer to "Enhanced Authorization and Authentication" in the

NetBackup System Administrator's Guide or the NetBackup Media Manager System

Administrator’s Guide.

OPTIONS

-rt robot_type

Specifies the robot type of the robot to inventory.

Valid robot types for NetBackup Enterprise Server follow:

none, acs, odl, tl4, tl8, tld, tlh, tlm, tsh.

Valid robot types for NetBackup Server follow:

none, tl4, tl8, tld.

-rn robot_number

Unique, logical identification number of the robot to inventory.

-rh robot_host

Name of the host which controls the robot. If no host is specified, the host

where you execute this command is assumed.

-h EMM_server | volume_database_host

This option is only applicable for NetBackup Enterprise Server.

The name of the Enterprise Media Manager database host which contains

information about the volumes in a robot. If no host is specified, the

configured EMM server is used by default. For communicating with

vmcheckxxx

 

pre-NetBackup 6.0 systems not in the EMM domain, this is the EMM

server. If no host is not specified, but a pre-NetBackup 6.0 robotic control

host is specified on the -rh option, the robotic control host will be used as

the EMM server.

-if inventory_filter_value

This option is only applicable for NetBackup Enterprise Server.

Specifies inventory filter values. Multiple -if options may be specified.

The inventory filter value is an ACS scratch pool ID, or a TLH volume

category.

The -if and -full options cannot be specified together.

-full

Specifies full inventory. The -full and -if options cannot be specified

together.

-list

Lists the robot contents.

NOTES

Only limited validation of the option parameters is done.

EXAMPLES

The following command lists the media contents of TLD robot 1 and the volume

configuration for that robot on the host named server2, along with a list of any

mismatches that are detected:

vmcheckxxx -rt tld -rn 1 -rh server2

The following command lists the contents of TLH robot 2 that is connected to the host

where the vmcheckxxx command was executed:

vmcheckxxx -rt tlh -rn 2 -list
