Running a backup from a client manually from the command line
C:\Program Files\legato\nsr\bin>save –vv –s ServerName –b PoolName pathname > TextfilePath 2>&1
-vv puts into Verbose mode for greater detail in debugging
-s Specifies the Networker server
-b specifies the pool of tapes to choose from
For example:
Save –vv –s NetworkerServer –b Default C:\backup_path > c:\legato.txt 2>&1
Run this command manually from the client computer to save the path C:\backup_path to a Default tape on the Networker server in verbose mode which saves the output to a file called legato.txt
-vv puts into Verbose mode for greater detail in debugging
-s Specifies the Networker server
-b specifies the pool of tapes to choose from
For example:
Save –vv –s NetworkerServer –b Default C:\backup_path > c:\legato.txt 2>&1
Run this command manually from the client computer to save the path C:\backup_path to a Default tape on the Networker server in verbose mode which saves the output to a file called legato.txt
Determining which volumes a Save Set is on
Run the following command, where ########## is the Save Set ID.
C:\Program Files\legato\nsr\bin>mminfo -avot -q ssid=##########
C:\Program Files\legato\nsr\bin>mminfo -avot -q ssid=##########
Extending the expiration of a specific volume
1. First, you will need to get a Save Set ID from the volume to extend. You can do this by double-clicking the volume in NetWorker Admin and getting the # from the SSID field.
2. Run the following command from the bin directory of Legato:
C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\bin>nsrmm –S ssid –e “xx/xx/xx”
NOTE: ssid = The Save Set Id # you got from the first set
Xx/xx/xx is the date you want the volume to be held until.
3. To verify that the save set has been extended you can run the following command:
C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\bin>mminfo –avot –r “ssid,ssretent” XXXXXX
NOTE: XXXXXX is the volume label
4. The volume’s expiration in NetWorker Administrator should now be set to the “xx/xx/xx” in step 2.
2. Run the following command from the bin directory of Legato:
C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\bin>nsrmm –S ssid –e “xx/xx/xx”
NOTE: ssid = The Save Set Id # you got from the first set
Xx/xx/xx is the date you want the volume to be held until.
3. To verify that the save set has been extended you can run the following command:
C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\bin>mminfo –avot –r “ssid,ssretent” XXXXXX
NOTE: XXXXXX is the volume label
4. The volume’s expiration in NetWorker Administrator should now be set to the “xx/xx/xx” in step 2.
jbconfig Legato Networker on Windows 2003 Dell PowerVault 160T
This is an example for running the jbconfig command using Windows 2003 as the Networker Server connected to a Dell Powervault 160T device. This is only showing the setup for one tape drive, if you have more than one drive you would just repeat the process 3 more times. If you have any comments please feel free to add to this...
Bring up a command prompt and do the following..
C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\bin>jbconfig
Jbconfig is running on host server.domain.com (Windows Server 2003),
and is using server.domain.com as the NetWorker server.
1) Configure an AlphaStor Library.
2) Configure an Autodetected SCSI Jukebox.
3) Configure an Autodetected NDMP SCSI Jukebox.
4) Configure an SJI Jukebox.
5) Configure an STL Silo.
6) Configure a Microsoft Removable Storage Jukebox.

The following drive(s) can be auto-configured in this jukebox:
1> LTO Ultrium-2 @ #.#.# ==> \\.\Tape0
These are all the drives that this jukebox has reported.
To change the drive model(s) or configure them as shared or NDMP drives,
you need to bypass auto-configure. Bypass auto-configure? (yes / no) [no] yes
Is (any path of) any drive intended for NDMP use? (yes / no) [no] yes
Is any drive going to have more than one path defined? (yes / no) [no] yes
You will be prompted for multiple paths for each drive.
Pressing on a null default advances to the next drive.
Please enter the device path information in one of the following formats:
\\.\Tape0 --for local path or
host:device-path --for remote node or NDMP device(s) or
host:drive-letter:directory path --for Windows disk file
After you have entered a device path, you will be prompted for an NDMP
user name for that path's host. If this device path is not an NDMP device,
press the enter key to advance to the next device path. For NDMP devices,
you need to enter the user name and password the first time we encounter
that NDMP host. Pressing the enter key for the NDMP user name for any
subsequent device path on the same host will set the user name and password
to those defined the first time. You will not be prompted for the password
in such a case.

The following configuration options have been set:
> Jukebox description to the control port and model.
> Autochanger control port to the port at which we found it.
> Autocleaning off.
> At least one drive was defined with multiple paths. All such drives are
defined with a hardware identification as well as a path value to avoid
confusion by uniquely identifying the drive. The hardware identification
for all drives which have one is always 'autochanger_name - Drive #' where
"autochanger_name" is the name you gave to the autochanger that was
just defined, and the # symbol is the drive number.
> Barcode reading to on.
> Volume labels that match the barcodes.
You can review and change the characteristics of the autochanger and its
associated devices using the NetWorker Management Console.
