Hello,
Netbackup 7.1.0.4
I’m hoping someone can help with this one.
We use storage lifecycle policies to handle the duplication of images from our VTL to several physical tape libraries. The backup images are retained on the VTL for a few weeks and ...

Hi,
We've migrated a number of servers over to Netbackup from Backup Exec. We would like to re-use some of the tapes used by Backup Exec.

Again, thanks for all your help with this.
Are you checking 'nbstlutil stlilist -image_incomplete -U' output on a regular basis?
Yes, we have to in order to stay in top of things.
Any chance this SLP was modified while outstanding duplications existed?
Hmm, this is quite possible :(

Hi Marianne
Yes, absolutely. This has only happened with one server (that we know of) and that was in a policy of its own. In the end I just recreated the same policy, set it to the same SLP, and it’s been duplicating fine ever since. Really...
Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
nbstlutil will only tell me lifecycles the are either running or due to run.
What I need is, a way to find out which duplications job didn't actually run. I could use the NBU catalog GUI, input each sever and check if copy...
Thanks for the reply, Doug.
It's seems one of the SPs had a damaged fibre cable. We have replaced this; it’s working fine now with the mulit-pathing software installed.
I'm still not sure why that without having the multi-pathing software it was able...
