Image cleanup error

[mike-b]

I get the following error in image cleanup jobs that run.  How can I fix?  What has changed is that I rebuilt the NetBackup server and the attached disk array is not mapped using the same drive letter (V:).  Its now using D:.  I've tried running bpimage -cleanup -allclients.  This runs with no error, but when the normal image cleanup runs, the same errors return.

What version of NetBackup is this? It's possible that the images have been expired but are waiting to clear up the disk (which will never happen).

You will need to mount a small 'dummy' volume to V:\Staging\Summit_Daily.

Never a good idea to change mount points when DSU contains valid images....

7.5.0.6 on Win2008R2.

An empty volume? How will this help when there will be no images? I changed the storage unit to point to the D drive thinking NetBackup would be smart enough to know that the location of previous images has changed as well.

Try running nbdelete -allvolumes -force Not sure if it will work in this case, but -force will cause NBU to cleanup the catalog when the STU is inaccessable.

I discovered that this morning, tried it, followed by bpimage -cleanup -allclients, which ran without error this time. I'll wait to see if the next natural image cleanup runs without error as well.

Netbackup is not that intelligent.. every single image is associated with the disk stoage which has a unique mediaID (@aaa??) , Netbackup is not going into the catalog to scan and change the image details when there is this change, and it is dangerous to do so.

Marianne's suggestion might help, because it's a workaround to trick Netbackup to think the actual disk storage is still there, and cleaning up the image from catalog would work from the catalog level.
