I think those commands must be run locally on each media server, right?

Any idea about the command that Java GUI runs when it is done from the Console?
My guess is that it will be something that could be found in undocumented vmoprcmd -Q output?

Oh! I think I found it:

https://vox.veritas.com/t5/NetBackup/Configure-Tape-Devices/td-p/536314/page/2

vmoprcmd -Q


-startltid
Start ltid. This option is used by java.
-stopltid
Stop ltid. This option is used by java.

You should be able to combine this with -h <media server>

      I guess these commands can be found out from logs. Create “admin” and “bpjava-msvc” on Master server no need to put high verbose. verbose 2 would be sufficient.

      And try the ltid restart you should see the commands in either of the log files.

      Don’t forget to turn off the logging after the use.
