NBU 7.1.0.3 - Find out which image contain which Backup Selection

[MartinVi]

Hi all,

i want to ask you, if it is possible to figure out what an image contain. That means i have configure a backup selection list with the following entries:

R:\Data\SharedG
v:\
R:\Data\SharedJ
R:\Data\SharedR
R:\Apps R:\Apps

The corresponding backup ids are:

ROZRHSC1VFS1.COUTTSCH.COUTTSINT.NET_1337976237 ROZRHSC1VFS1.COUTTSCH.COUTTSINT.NET Fri May 25 22:03:57 CEST 2012 ...

Easiest way ...

Take backup id ...

womble_1337635216

cd to ...

/usr/openv/netbackup/db/images/<client name>/<first 4 digits of ctime and 6 zeros>/

Eg.

/usr/openv/netbackup/db/images/womble/1337000000

Find the files with th ctime in their names

ls -al *1337635216*

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/cat_convert -dump robot_0_1337635216_FULL.f

Hi Martin,

Nicolai has given an excellent answer.  This would be the ideal 'command line' way to carry out the task.

However, the bplist command is quite complex, as you see, there are many options, which is why I gave the cat_convert command.
