Job-specific utilities

 

IMPORTANT: Several utilities described in this section reference a file named nvsetmodify.cfg. This configuration file includes a list of options used to define a backup job and the associated code number that can be used to identify the option in the CLI. You can find nvsetmodify.cfg in <NetVault home>\config on Windows and <NetVault Home>/config on Linux. When you use the file, verify that you do not modify the contents in any manner. You can take a printout of this file and use the print for reference purposes. This functionality is intended for highly experienced users. Any attempt to use the values provided in this configuration file must be performed under the guidance of Technical Support.

nvexpiresaveset

Performs the following functions:

To delete a specific saveset and its duplicates, use the following options.

-savesetid

The NetVault saveset ID number of the instance to expire immediately or to change the expiry date. The immediate expiry option can cause dependent incremental or differential backups to retire prematurely.

-duplicates

Deletes duplicates of the specified saveset. This option can also be used to delete only the saveset of a phase 1 or phase 2 Data Copy backup, since they have different saveset IDs. Accordingly, the required saveset ID can be provided as the input to nvexpiresaveset.

-duplicateonly

Specifies whether only the phase 2 saveset is to be deleted. Use this option ONLY for deleting a phase 2 Duplicate copy.

To mark multiple savesets and their duplicates for deletion, use the following options.

-markforexpiry

Marks savesets specified in the input file (infile) for deletion.

If no dependent Incremental or Differential Backups exist for a saveset, the saveset is removed when the Media Manager performs the next retirement check. By default, these checks are performed at the interval of 60 minutes. To change the interval between two checks, configure the Retirement Check Granularity in Mins setting in the mediamgr.cfg file. For more information about this setting, see Quest NetVault Administrator’s Guide.

If any dependent Incremental or Differential Backups exist for a saveset, the saveset is removed only after all dependent backups have reached their retirement date.

-changeexpiry

The option that sets or changes the expiry of savesets using an expiry date or generation count.

-duplicates

Marks duplicates of the specified savesets for deletion. This option can also be used to delete only the saveset of a phase 1 or phase 2 Data Copy backup, since they have different saveset IDs. Accordingly, the required saveset ID can be provided as the input to nvexpiresaveset.

-success

Includes ID numbers of the successful savesets in the output file. Without this option, the utility includes ID numbers of the failed savesets in the output file.

-infile

Specifies the name of the input file.

The input file contains the ID numbers of the savesets that you want to mark for deletion. You can use any text editor to create this file. Specify one saveset ID per line. Provide the complete path if the input file is not located in the directory from which you run the utility.

By default, the file is created in the directory from which you run the utility. Provide the complete path if you want to save the file in a different location.
