As far as I know. There is no easy way to get this other than
the nightly backup logs, which typically are not kept too long.
I think you would need to run a select on the DB to pull that
one out. It looks like it is in the backups table. Here is a look at the
fields and how they are formatted:
NODE_NAME: ADMIN-SRVX
FILESPACE_NAME: /var/run
FILESPACE_ID: 5
STATE: INACTIVE_VERSION
TYPE: FILE
HL_NAME: /
LL_NAME: syslog-ng.pid
OBJECT_ID: 637355388
BACKUP_DATE: 2004-01-02 17:11:56.000000
DEACTIVATE_DATE: 2004-01-11 17:10:49.000000
OWNER: root
CLASS_NAME: DEFAULT
Perhaps something like this would get it:
select FILESPACE_NAME, HL_NAME, LL_NAME, DEACTIVATE_DATE from backups
where node_name like 'CLIENT-NAME' and filespace_name like
'/file/space/name' and LL_NAME like "file.name"
Or... Perhaps I'm smoking crack and there is a much easier way
to get this information...

Subject: how to find out the date when a file became inactive??
Good morning *SMers!
Can anyone one help me out on this one?
I am severely brain impaired right now & I have a request from mgmt to
see if I can find out when a file became inactive (i.e., when it was
deleted). I am pretty sure I have a recollection of finding out this
information before, but am at an utter loss right now to remember how.
tia,
lisa
