Vault no container inventory

[Cappino]

Hi all,

I just finished the process of vault, but I realized that from the report -> container Invetory do a check on the data vault, there is no data in the tape.
Same if I go on the catalog and I select the tape when it was made the vault, it gives me the error: found no images or media matching the selection criteria.
On media, controlling the columns of the tape, on vault name I see the name of the process of vaulting, but about Date Vaulted there is no date, which in the other tape was made the vault where the date is present.
It seems as if the tape used was still open to be written.
How can I do more thorough checks to solve this problem?

Thanks!!

Tell us more about your Vault Profile - what exactly have you configured?
Duplication?
Eject?
Or both? 

Have you checked the Vault session log?

Please show us all text in Details tab of the vault job and also upload the session log.

Copy the log in /usr/openv/netbackup/vault/sessions/<vault_name>/<sidxxx>/logs to session.txt and upload as File attachment.

Hi Marianne,

thanks for your reply.
the Vault profile is configured only the duplicatio and not the output of the tape is set to deferred eject.
In the vault session, there are no errors, even complete everything correctly (in attach).

Thanks.

Regards,

Daniele

So, you have configured your Vault Profile for 'deferred eject', right?

How and when do you eject vaulted tapes?

Extract from Vault Admin Guide:

If you configure a profile to defer ejection, you must perform or schedule another
action to eject media.
You can use one of the following actions to eject media that was not ejected by a
profile that selected or duplicated images:
■ Manually by using the Vault Management node in the NetBackup Administration
Console
■ Manually by using the Vault Operator Menu
■ Manually by using the vlteject command
■ Automatically by creating and scheduling a Vault policy and entering the
appropriate vlteject command and options in the file list

Note: You must use one of the Vault methods to eject media. If you use a NetBackup
or Media Manager option to eject media, the correct database entries are not made
and the Vault reports are not accurate.

Vault Inventory report is one of the reports that depend on eject.
