scripting staging and cloning
The built in options for these leaves little to be desired. I just migrated from Solaris to Centos7 for my server/storage node. Migration went as planned but now I'm having to recreate some of the procedures that we being done with the iDATA Tools suite. I was nice to be able to stage or clone in "chunks" instead of "how many days" kinda schedule. I have some save sets that are fairly large.
Unfortunately I can't just download the Linux version of the tools as they appear to be gone from existence. If anyone has the linux versions ,tips or scripts they would like to share I will gladly accept. Otherwise I'm working on a script to sum up "totalsize" up to 2-3T and send those ssids to staging.
Thanks

Just list ssids along with size, sort it by size and then select ssids as per any criteria you want.

I have a script working that will get the list of savesets and total up the sizes up to the amount I want to stage, 3T, and send them to nsrstage but I'm having a heck of a time getting nsrstage to redirect output to a file to check for errors or even email the output.
I've tried stdout/stderr redirect, tee and script..... Is there something special about this binary.....

(and you can use similar trick as described in Crazy little thing called nsrsgrpcomp if it is stubborn...)

For staging you should also use nsrclone (nsrclone -m). You can direct output (there are couple of binaries which require some forcing, but as far as I remember nsrclone is not one of them).
