clone job
Hi Folks
Under Networker Reports-Networker Clone-Clone details, I can see job ids for successful monthly clones to tape. But from Media-Save sets don't find the cloned ss to tape.
Is there a way to check/view what are the ss/name that was actually cloned using the clone job id?
Thanks

The issue is that you have to deal with two different databases - the jobs db and the media db.
I guess that if you get the timestamp from the jobs db you could use mminfo to query the media db for the save sets.

Thanks Bingo
the jobsdb retention was just 5 days..have increased to 100 days now at max size
got some output from jobsdb/jobid from last night...it throws ssid/cloneid....looks like have to write a script to go through each and every ids and translate that to names?
Any better ways? Thanks

Depends what you want to achieve at the end. You can check mdb against ssids that have clones if you want those to be listed only, you can query whatever group and check number of copies and similar. There are many different ways to do it, but it all depends on what is your ultimate goal.

Hi Hrvoje
My ultimate goal is to know/view the content of successful clones from that clone job id by providing:-
ssid/clid
ssname
date
size
level
status
Currently the job id shows successful ssid/cloneid contents but not names at least..it may need further work on scripting it out but looking if there are better ways to get them
Thank you

What you want is then name and status - clflags. So, depending how your cloning jobs are done, you can:
- do query within time slot (eg. from-to for previous day)
- do query on client
- do query on group
From there, in report you wish to see: 'name,client,group,copies,pool,volume,ssflags,sumflags,clflags,sumsize(1),level,sscreate(20),sscomp(20)'

the idea is to let Networker show what it got in that clone job id that it reports successful...
looks like there is no way of that...how nice if by double click or by putting job id in query it shows all the savesets that were cloned...

Thierry,
if you run scripted clone jobs, you could of course pipe the output of the clone command to a file. This does not help you much as it will only report "ssid/
May i suggest the following for a scripted clone job:
1. Run mminfo to prepare your ssid list file.
2. Run mminfo with the same query but now with your report parameters (copies).
3. Run the clone job.
It might be ok already if you trust NW that it will report if a problem has occured.
4. Run step 2 again and verify the copies again.
