Windows command to re-inventory a library
Updated: 22 May 2010 | 3 comments
Does anyone know of a command I can use to reinventory out tape library. I have tried using vmphyinv, but it does update the library contents on the NBU GUI?
Does anyone know of a better way.

vmupdate
Media labeled with barcode? If so, you can use vmupdate instead. If not, unfortunately there are no other way like vmphyinv on GUI.
When you run vmupdate, you have to do it on master server as below.
# vmupdate -h -rt -rn -rh -use_barcode_rules
It's my hot topic now. If you run it on media server, you may not get correct result because media id generation format configured on GUI is stored on master server, and runnint vmupdate on media server doesn't regard it.
Volume database host and other paramaters can be found by vmglob.
# vmglob.exe -listall

Actually,
You can copy the media id generation rule into the bp.conf file on the media servers so the update will work from any of the media servers.
