Verify existence of DB backup in backup images
There was a requirement for extending the expiry of a couple of databases (MS SQL). The DBs are backed up with several others using a MS-SQL-Server policy (traditional). What I did was to use bplist command to see if DBs were backed up during the time the policy was running (Hot Full about a month ago); found all backup images that the policy created (all DBs) and extended their expiry (all images). This was my easy way out to "get the job done".
Is there a way to just pick the backup images created when a particular db was backed up and extend their expiry?
