how to find backup policies using an SLP?
NBU 7.7.3
I have several backup policies using several SLPs. How can I find all the backup policies that are using an SLP without opening each backup policy to check?

You can also extract this details through Activity Monitor (Java Console) as well or you can follow what Marianne suggested.
Log on to Java Console => NetBackup Management => Policies
1. If SLP is defined in policies : Select Summary of All Policies -> "Storage" Column will show you the SLP's corresponding to your policy. Go to File -> Export - if you want to export the details to file or you can try just copying from console
2. If SLP is defined in Schedule : Expand Summary of All Policies -> Select Schedules -> "Storage" column will show your SLP's. Export to file or copy as explained in point 1
You can list output of all policies and save to a text file, then search the text file for this:
'Residence is Storage Lifecycle Policy'/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/bppllist -allpolicies -U >/tmp/policies.txt
If SLP is defined in policy Attributes, the entry will look like this:
Residence is Storage Lifecycle Policy: yesIf SLP is defined in policy Schedule, the entry will look like this:
Residence is Storage Lifecycle Policy: 1
