Overview of Items to Be Checked

In order to ensure that Data Protector is functioning properly and to
identify potential problems before they arise, it is recommended that you
perform regular checks as described in the following sections.

Using the

User Check Failed

notification, it is possible to automate

these checks by developing scripts including these checks. Some of the
checks (for example the

omnihealthcheck

and

omnitrig -run_checks

commands) are already automated by the means of Data Protector
checking and maintenance mechanism.

Check the Data Protector Cell Manager

1. Run the

omnihealthcheck

command to check the following:

• whether the Data Protector services (

rds

,

crs

,

mmd

,

omnitrig

, and

OmniInet

) are active

• whether the Data Protector Media Management Database is

consistent

• whether at least one backup of the IDB exists

The exit code of the command is 0 (OK) only if all three checks
completed successfully (exit code for every check was 0). Exit values
other than 0 indicate that one or more of the checks failed.

For more information on exit codes, refer to

omnihealthcheck

man

page.

2. Run the

omnidbcheck -core

command to check the core parts of the

IDB.

The exit code of the command is 0 (OK) only if the check completed
successfully. Exit values other than 0 indicate that the check failed.

For more information on exit codes, refer to

omnihealthcheck

man

page.

3. Check the critical parts of IDB using the

omnidbcheck -critical

command. For more information on the

omnidbcheck

command, refer

to

omnidbcheck

man page.

The exit code of the command is 0 (OK) only if the check completed
successfully. Exit values other than 0 indicate that the check failed.
For more information on exit codes, refer to

omnidbcheck

man page.
