How To Cancel SLP 1000 Images nbstlutil cancel using script in windows

[inn_kam]

Hi

Our Mission  is to cancel a list of more than 1000 images called in SLP.

I Found one post atatched below of Marraine. calling script in linux, to delete images from txt file.

Can any one help me to change this script in Windows

i have made this script  , help me that where is the mistake

FOR   %%G  IN "echo C:\Users\dveribackup\Documents\old_slp_images_dec18.txt"  DO  D:\Program Files\Netbackup\bin\admincmd\nbstlutil cancel -backupid %%G

You will need to identify the jobs that you want to cancel, compile a list of backup-id's, then cancel them with this command:

nbstlutil cancel -backupid <backupid>

You can add the list of backup id's to a text file (e.g. /tmp/image.txt), then cancel them using a 'for' loop:

for i in `cat /tmp/image.txt`
do
nbstlutil cancel -backupid $i
done

or can i use this command ,

will it delete only images before 12 december 2018?

nbstlutil cancel -lifecycle <name of the SLP> -before 12/08/2018 00:00:00

if yes, then will it delete copy 2 images? then how i will delete remaining copy 1 images after this command

nbstlutil cancel -lifecycle DD_Repli_SLP -before 12/08/2018
