About NetBackup catalog maintenance

For Instant Recovery backups, NetBackup automatically updates the catalog to keep it correlated with the snapshots on the client. If not kept up-to-date, the catalog might refer to snapshots that no longer exist on the client, due to user activity (snapshot replacement or deletion).

NetBackup includes a maintenance program (bppficorr) that runs after backups and restores. It can also be run manually to update the catalog if an Instant Recovery snapshot is accidentally deleted or renamed.

For man page information on the bppficorr command, refer to the NetBackup Commands guide.
