Need help to Verify Backup image copy & expiration activity.
Hello Guys
I have 2 backup copies in my setup , copy 1 ( primary ) on DATA DOMAIN , Copy 2 on Tape Library.
Now due to space issue on data domain , we are expiring Primary copy ( Copy 1 ) which was there more than 15 Days .
I have list of Backup id's for which I need to check no. of Backup copies.
(1) if no. of backup copies are 2 .. then go for expiration of Primary copy ( which resides on DATA DOMAIN )
(2) if no. of backup copy is 1 .. then first run duplicate job for such backup images, create 2nd copy and then expire 1st copy.
ISSUE ::
I tried to run below script to get no. of copies for each backup id, but i also want to know the backup ID with respect to No. of backup copies output. & want to get that output in text file. so that I can Identify the Backup id's which has only one backup id.
Current script & output is as below ::
cat filename.txt | while read line
> do
> bpimagelist -backupid $line -L | grep Copies
> done
*** filename.txt is the file which contains only Backup ID's for validation
*** I am expecting output as below e.g
e.g
ABC_1416513707 = Number of Copies: 2
DEF_1416809895 = Number of Copies : 1
can some one help me in this scripting part. ?
Hello
You can use the following method. Its not perfect and assumes that copy 1 is always to DD and copy 2 is always to TAPE.
From my system i run the below and it shows me the ($1) backup image, ($2) the number of copies, and ($3) which copy is the primary. (I assume if the primary is copy 2 that copy 1 has expired already)
[root@ora11g-01 dbhome_1]# bpimagelist -hoursago 800 -l | grep IMAGE | awk '{ print $6, $21, $28 }'
app-01_1421910940 2 1

ora11g-01_1421909914 1 1
ora11g-01_1421909473 1 1From the information above we can have a few scenarios
1 1 which means there is one copy and copy 1 (DD) is primary. We want to duplicate these images
1 2 which means there is one copy and copy 2 (Tape) is primary. No Action here.
2 1 which means there are two copies and copy 1 (DD) is primary (as its not expired). We want to expire copy 1
2 2 which means there are two copies and copy 2 (Tape) is primary. We want to expire copy 1
The test for the scenarios are
[root@ora11g-01 dbhome_1]# bpimagelist -hoursago 800 -l | grep IMAGE | awk '{ print $6, $21, $28 }' | awk '{ if ( $2 == 2 && $3 == 1 ) print "expire copy 1 of "$1 }'

No results
[root@ora11g-01 dbhome_1]# bpimagelist -hoursago 800 -l | grep IMAGE | awk '{ print $6, $21, $28 }' | awk '{ if ( $2 == 1 && $3 == 2 ) print "copy 2 of "$1" is the primary copy - no action required" }'
No results
[root@ora11g-01 dbhome_1]# bpimagelist -hoursago 800 -l | grep IMAGE | awk '{ print $6, $21, $28 }' | awk '{ if ( $2 == 1 && $3 == 1 ) print "Single copy of "$1" exists - duplicate to tape" }'
Single copy of app-01_1421909951 exists - duplicate to tape
Single copy of app-01_1421909472 exists - duplicate to tape
Single copy of app-01_1421220589 exists - duplicate to tape
Single copy of ora11g-01_1421909914 exists - duplicate to tape
Single copy of ora11g-01_1421909473 exists - duplicate to tapeYou can replace what ever is the print section. I just put the text in there "expire" or "duplicate" to show what needs to be done. Or just print $1 > expire.file.list or > duplicate.file.ist
Hope that helps.
