Querying the ADIC/GRAU DAS Server
If you want to get information about a repository in the GRAU DAS
library from the Server, you can query the DAS Server. A query responds
with the contents of the media database of the DAS Server, and then
synchronizes the information in the IDB with what is actually in the
repository.
This is especially useful if you were using GRAU DAS commands to
manage media, as this results in inconsistencies with the IDB - Data
Protector does not know the latest status of media in the library
repository. Proceed as follows:
1. In the
HP OpenView Storage Data Protector Manager
, switch to
the
Devices & Media
context.
2. In the list of configured devices, right-click the library you want to
query, then click
Query
.
See online Help for further information.
This action queries the DAS Server for information.
Verifying Media
Use this function to verify media in a media pool. By reading all media
blocks and parsing all the headers, then parsing all Media Agent blocks
and checking records in each block, Data Protector determines whether
the data on the media is valid. If the
CRC
option was set during backup,
Data Protector recalculates the CRC and compares the values.
You can only verify resident Data Protector media.
1. In the
HP OpenView Storage Data Protector Manager
, switch to
the
Devices & Media
context.
2. In the Scoping Pane, click
Devices
. The list of configured devices will
display in the Results Area.
3. In the list of configured devices, click the name of the library, then
expand it to display the
Drives
and
Slots
items.
4. Click
Slots
to display the list of slots in the Results Area.
5. Select a range of slots to verify.
