How to check validcopies in NetWorker 9 with mminfo

How to check validcopies in NetWorker 9 with mminfo:

In your backup environment data clone going to a disk media, I suspect that we are rarely will see a save set with clflg mminfo attributes. The reason is that 'faulty/aborted' save sets will automatically be deleted.

If you want to know whether a save set has successfully been cloned you better check with 'validcopies' mminfo attribute:


mminfo -r "client,name,ssid,validcopies,pool"

or to verify all save sets with only one copy

mminfo -q "validcopies<2" -r "client,name,ssid,validcopies,pool"

Browse and retention time raised Script for multiple SSID

Today I would like to explain How Browse and retention time period extend by Script for multiple SSID

bash-$ mminfo -avot -q "savetime>=02/01/2016,savetime<=03/31/2016" -r client,ssid,group,ssbrowse,ssretent >ssid.txt 2>&1

Select the respective SSID which need to extend and put in to one text file ssid-re.txt. After that run the below script for extend the Browse and retention period;

Today Date : 04/01/2016

bash-$ for i in `cat ssid-re.txt`; do sudo nsrmm -S $i -e "6 months" -y; done

bash-$ for i in `cat ssid-re.txt`; do sudo nsrmm -S $i -w "6 months" -y; done

You will get the error browse time should be less than retention time.

You should mention commands like as 

for i in `cat ssid-re.txt`; do sudo nsrmm -S $i -w "Sun Feb 28 06:16:05 2016" -y; done

After extended the both policy verify it.

for i in `cat verifyssid.txt`; do mminfo -q ssid=$i -r 'client,ssid,sscreate,ssbrowse,ssretent' >>output.txt; done
