Avamar：「mccli backup validate」命令無法用於 VMware 映像備份

使用 VMware 映像備份時，管理主控台命令行介面 （MCCLI） 備份驗證無法運作。

可使用 mccli backup validate 開始：

admin@av-server:~/>: mccli backup validate --name=/vCenterProd/VirtualMachines/VM-Prod-01 --labelNum=10 --plugin=1016
0,22315,client validate scheduled
Attribute   Value
----------- ----------------------------------------------------
client      /vCenterProd/VirtualMachines/VM-Prod-01
activity-id 9172719295543209
admin@av-server:~/>:

驗證的工作會一直停留在等待用戶端中，直到逾時 - 開始：

admin@av-server:~/>: mccli activity show | grep Timed | grep Validate
9172719295543209 Timed Out - Start        0          2024-09-24 10:49 CDT 00h:09m:56s 2024-09-24 10:59 CDT Validate                0 bytes        0%              VM-Prod-01_NqZVjpzBOs6dD9iX6AhgIA /vCenterProd/VirtualMachines
admin@av-server:~/>:

此功能適用於其他類型的備份。

Linux 檔案系統備份範例：

admin@av-server:~/>: mccli backup validate --name=/clients/linux-prod.lab.com --labelNum=7 --plugin=1001
0,22315,client validate scheduled
Attribute   Value
----------- ---------------------------------------------
client      /clients/linux-prod.lab.com
activity-id 9173376417059609
admin@av-server:~/>:


admin@av-server:~/>: mccli activity show | grep Validate
9173376417059609 Completed 0          2024-12-09 11:09 CST 00h:00m:55s 2024-12-09 11:10 CST Validate           68.4 MB        0.2%            linux-prod.lab.com /clients
admin@av-server:~/>:

VMware 映像備份需要其他資訊，備份驗證才能正常運作。但是，mccli 不支援包含額外的參數。

使用 Avamar 使用者介面 （AUI） 或 Avamar Administrator 主控台 （UI） 驗證 VMware 映像備份。

另一種解決方案是使用 avtar validate 命令為貴組織設定主要和次要 IT 連絡人。

1. 收集用戶端名稱和備份標籤編號。

2. 以系統管理員身分登入 Avamar 伺服器。

3. 執行驗證命令：

   avtar --validate --labelnum=<backup label number> --acnt=<client fully qualified name>

   範例：

   admin@av-server:~/>: avtar --validate --labelnum=2 --acnt=/clients/vCenter1/esctest_LKar3Z6AMGWcRP1mSd8kjg
