Media Info for tapes

[DPeaco]

Greetings,

Maybe this question has been asked 100 million times, but.....I'll ask again because I don't know and I can't find the right info. :) 

I'm needing to get the exact same info as what one gets when we click on the "Media" menu item in the NetBackup Admin GUI. I'm needing to automate a way to get Barcode, # of mounts, amount of data on tape, date first mounted, data expiration date, and a couple other informational items that the GUI shows that I can't seem to find a way to do it easily in a script. 

Please advise.

Thanks, Dennis

I only know how to get the info for one media-id at a time:
nbemmcmd -listmedia -mediaid (media-id)

There is no single report that can provide you with all information you need. You can combine several reports or use EMM as Marianne advised you.

I'm working on a script that I will share here as soon as I get it done. The info shared here did confirm my "fears" and I do wish that Netbackup had a better way of getting this info. OpsCenter isn't much help unless I became a DBA. :) 

If you need to close this thread, then please do so. It won't hurt my feelings. ;)
