Synchronize the MSDP catalog with the NetBackup catalog
When you recover the MSDP catalog from a backup, you must synchronize it with the NetBackup catalog to ensure consistency.
To synchronize the MSDP catalog with the NetBackup catalog
- Run the following command to synchronize the catalog.
The command deletes the metadata in the MSDP catalog that does not have a corresponding backup image in the NetBackup catalog.
UNIX:/usr/openv/pdde/pdcr/bin/dedupecatutil --FORCE_DEDUP_METADATA_CONSISTENCY [--num_threads N]
Windows: <install_path>\Veritas\pdde\dedupecatutil --FORCE_DEDUP_METADATA_CONSISTENCY [--num_threads N]
The --num_threads N option lets you specify the number of processor threads for the task. By default --num_threads is set to 1.
After this command completes successfully, the existing shadow catalog becomes invalid.
- Run the following command to create a new catalog shadow copy:
UNIX: /usr/openv/pdde/pdcr/bin/drcontrol --refresh_shadow_catalog
Windows:install_path\Veritas\pdde\drcontrol --refresh_shadow_catalog
