Determining AdvancedDisk disk volume state

Use the NetBackup nbdevquery command to determine the state of the volumes in AdvancedDisk disk pools.

To determine AdvancedDisk disk volume state

  • Display the state of the volumes in a disk pool by using the following command:

    UNIX: /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd/nbdevquery -listdv -U -stype server_type -dp disk_pool_name

    Windows: install_path\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\nbdevquery -listdv -U -stype server_type -dp disk_pool_name

    The following items describe the arguments for the options:

    -stype server_type

    For the server type, use one of the following types:

    • AdvancedDisk for nonencrypted storage.

    • AdvancedDisk_crypt for encrypted storage.

    dp disk_pool_name

    The name of the disk pool.

    To display the disk volumes in all disk pools of the specified type, omit the -dp option.

    The command displays all of the volumes in the disk pool. The state is either UP or DOWN.
