Set SLP final copy expiration date after SLP cancellation
Hi,
I have followed https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH181975 to cancel further processing on an SLP managed duplication (Backup to AdvDisk1, duplicate to AdvDisk2,duplicate to tape for long term retention) as the final copy had been written to tape but was still showing as NOT_STARTED, consequently the re-spawning duplications failed with error 190.
I have run nbstlutil cancel -backupid CLIENT_1448054800 and the image now shows as COMPLETE, however although copies 1 and 2 show the correct expiration dates, copy 3 still shows as NOT_STARTED, its expire time and expire LC time still shows "Tue Jan 19 03:14:07 2038" or infinite.
The Image's Required Expiration Date shows Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 1970.
I have attached a sanitised version of the nbstlutil list -U -backupid CLIENT_1448054800 for more information.
What further steps do I need to take to ensure that copy 3 expires at the end of the 7 year retention period?
Master Server = Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 with Veritas Global Cluster
Media Server = Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
Netbackup version = 7.5.0.7
Thanks,
Alun.
Try nbstlutil cancel -backupid <backup_id> -force
