Netbackup VTL Tapes migration to other VTL Tapes
Hi, i have a master server with VTL LTO4 (DataDomain 860) configured and tapes in each pool. Now i must dismiss thi library and configure a new VTL LTO5 (DataDomain7200). I configured the new library and switched all backup policies on this, but i dismiss the old vtl and i must clone the all data to new tapes. i thought that i perform clone tapes like this: - List all old tapes by pool - Perform a query by bpimmedia for each tape (media id) cat list_tape |while read a do bpimmedia -l -mediaid $a |grep IMAGE |awk '{print $4}' >> /tmp/list_image_id done - Perform a bpduplicate command with the image_id present on that tapes (list_image_id), for example all tapes by pool Oracle bpduplicate -dstunit DD7200 -Bidfile /tmp/list_image_id -mpx -L /tmp/Duplication.log -dp Oracle -primary -fail_on_error 0 As for your experience, this operation is it correct? I see some difference by "image vaild" on GUI and number of images on bpimmedia output. GUI: 3 images valid for Tape xxx CLI: 2images on Tape xxx Other question: bpduplicate with options like this, duplicate the image and its fragment spanned on tapes? Thanks in advance, Best Regards
