Displaying and resetting the backup status for a Database Availability Group (DAG)
Use the following commands to display and reset the backup status for a DAG. More information is available about how the backup status is used to choose the node from which to perform the backup.
See Backup status for Exchange Database Availability Groups (DAGs) and the preferred server list.
Note:
-EXDB is case sensitive
To display the Backup Status database, enter one of the following commands from the NetBackup primary server:
bpclient -client host_name -EXDB
bpclient -All -EXDB
where host_name is the name of the DAG. The output from this command is as follows:
EX_DB: DAG_DB3 EX_SRVR: EXSRV3 EX_TIME: 1259516017 EX_COUNT: 1 EX_STATUS: 156 EX_DB: DAG_MBOX7 EX_SRVR: EXSRV3 EX_TIME: 1259516040 EX_COUNT: 2 EX_STATUS: 0 EX_DB: EXCHDB001 EX_SRVR: EXSRV2 EX_TIME: 1259516018 EX_COUNT: 1 EX_STATUS: 0
Note:
-exdb is case sensitive
To reset the Backup Status database for a particular Exchange database, enter the following command:
bpclient -client host_name -update -exdb <db_name:server_name[:timestamp:count:status]>
For example:
bpclient -client DAG_Name -update -exdb DAG_DB3:EXSRV1:0:0:0
