Think the information is also available in the Catalog part of the GUI. And probably in one of the reports too

Assume you don't have the job in the activity monitor anymore, else the essasiest way would have to look in the job details

The standard questions: Have you checked: 1) What has changed. 2) The manual 3) If there are any tech notes or VOX posts regarding the issue

Hi Howard,

 

I don't understand what you need exactly but you can use bpimagelist to see which images are located on which media (client or policy perspective), conversly you can use bpimmedia to see which images contain  which images (media centric perspective).

 

PLease let us know the goal of the exercise, why do you want to update / change your policy?

You can check Images on Media report for that media id.

The policy and client name will be in the report.

Thanks all, I guest it might this is what i need, however I'm still not familiar with bpimagelist command, GUI is better. I assume the backupID is xxx_14066....

Your question was: "which policy use a tape for backup"

Have you tried 'Images on Media" report?
