Hi Team

 

Just for my knowledge, is there any way (command, log file, reporting) to get history date of tape manualy expired?

We are looking for a costumer data with an infinity retention that is not longer available in NBU catalog. We thank that some tape have been manualy expired at this period time. 

How can us get this information?

Thank for your help.

If it was manual initiated you might be able to find something in the admin log or in the audit log if you have enabled audit on the master in question and it has happen inside your log retention periode.

There is also tape logs in Java Console, but don't think they contain that kind of information

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

If you use NB7.6 or above, there is this nbauditreport command you can run to see the command run history - if  nbaudit is not turned off. By default it's turned on. 

Or you can look at the admin logs if it's still available.

Hello,

as mentioned above, you can use:

1/ nbauditreport -ctgy CATALOG

or also

2/All Log Entries report and search for "changing media XXX to expiration date 1/1/1970"

Note: automatic expirations are not recorded in this way
