How does help me know how many tape mounts would be required to perform a
full restore of this node??
Thanks,
Phil

Phil,
No I have not needed to look at that because all my clients are in
collocated
pools and
the large ones are on 9840 cartridges, so the number of tapes per client is
limited.
However I believe you can achieve this via :-
export node ?????? filedata=allactive preview=yes

John,
I am assuming here that the Q_TAPE_VOLS script shows tapes that include both
active and inactive versions. Do you have a version of the script that will
display a list of tapes that contain just the active versions?
Thanks,
Phil

Peter,
Here is a script you can run to find out how many tapes your client has data
on.
You might not need to mount all of them as some will probably just contain
inactive data
/* -----------------------------------------*/
/* Script written 23/06/99 by John Naylor */
/* Script Name: Q_TAPE_VOLS_TOT */
/* Description:Display total tapes for node */
/* parameter $1 = node name
/* Example: run q_tape_vols havsd2 */
select node_name, count(distinct volume_name) -
as "Tape total" -
from volumeusage -
where node_name = upper('$1') -
group by node_name
If you want to know the individual tapes then the script below will do that
/* -----------------------------------------*/
/* Script written 25/06/99 by John Naylor */
/* Script Name: Q_TAPE_VOLS */
/* Description: Display the TAPES that */
/* relate to a specific node */
/* Parameter: node name and storage pool */
/* Example: run q_tape_vols havsd2 nwlcart */
select distinct volume_name,node_name from -
volumeusage where node_name = upper('$1') -
and stgpool_name = upper('$2')
If this is a test restore only, then I would bin it and think seriously
about
collocation for
your primary pools, or maybe regular backupsets.

Subject: how to speed up NT restore?
Hello,
I have been restoring an NT client for about 8 hours now, a bare-metal
restore.
The server is an RS/6000 at ADSM 3.10.
The problem is that it until now only some MBs have been restored and
the client
will need many GBs before it is done ... Looks like this could take
days.
The activity log and 'q session' shows that the restore session is doing
numerous
( DLT) tape mounts, and even when no mounts are outstanding very little
data is
transferred from the server to the client. Looks like the data for this
client might be spread
over hundreds of tapes. The storage pool for this client is not
collocated.
Is there a way to speed up the restore?
Would it make sense to do an "export node" to tapes followed by an
"import node" in order to force
the data to fewer tapes or would I then just be spending time in the
"export" instead?
Is there something else I can do?
--
any help would be appreciated!
thanks,
Peter Koblauch
