Naming Conventions for MPE Volume Sets
An MPE system volume, MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET, is automatically
created when any HP system is installed. NetWorker identifies MPE/iX
nonsystem volume sets by the appended tag _VOLUME_SET. For this reason,
when you back up or recover nonsystem volume sets with NetWorker, you
must add the tag _VOLUME_SET to the MPE volume set name. For example,
if you were backing up all your project files that reside exclusively on an MPE
volume set, PROJECTS, you would name the volume set
PROJECTS_VOLUME_SET.
Important: NetWorker identifies the MPE volume set,
PROJECTS_VOLUME_SET, as PROJECTS_VOLUME_SET_VOLUME_SET;
NetWorker does not consider the first _VOLUME_SET string.
When NetWorker saves an MPE volume set it saves the file directory information
in the file PROJECTS_VOLUME_SET. Using the example, when you recover
this specific file, it will contain only the file directory information. To recover
all the files and directories on an MPE volume set, you use the save set
identification (ssid) for the volume set. Refer to “Recovering Volume Sets” in
“Chapter 3: Recovering Files” of the Legato NetWorker ClientPak for MPE/iX
User’s Guide for more information on recovering MPE volume sets.
If you want the NetWorker server to do server-initiated backups of MPE
volume sets, you must add the correct save set names for the MPE volume sets
to the Client resource on the NetWorker server, as in the following examples:
/MPEXL_SYSTEM_VOLUME_SET
/PROJECTS_VOLUME_SET
If the default keyword “All” appears in the Save Set attribute in the Clients
resource on the NetWorker server, all currently mounted MPE volume sets for
the MPE client are backed up according to the group and schedule listed in the
Clients resource.
Listing Groups in an MPE Volume Set
You can get a list of all accounts and groups in an MPE volume set that
NetWorker will back up in a server-initiated backup.
Enter the following MPE command at the CI prompt to display a list of groups
in an MPE volume set, as in the following example:
: REPORT ;ONVS=
