cloning scripts

[jimgordon]

I have a windows 2000 server with networker 6.1.3, I backup all my data nightly to an STK-LTO80. I would like to clone my nightly backups to another silo an STL-9714 during the next day. I understand there are 3 ways to clone. manually - no good to me, once a savegrp has completed - again no good as I need all my drives for backups.Or an automatic script, to clone all savegrps, starting when the groups have completed. This is my problem, my knowledge is in unix and could write a script for that, does anyone know what I would use to automate clones on W2K.

Hi,

Depending on how you wanted to clone, you can dump a list of the save sets to a file with mminfo, and use:

nsrclone -S -f <ssidlist.txt>

You can also list volume names or volid's. Depending on how many drives you have available, and the amount of data you have to clone, you may want to split this up into several clone instances.

Hope this helps.

I included my scripts for clonning. Take a look, it may save you some time. When it starts it checks if savegroups are running. Then it creates a report file with all back-up savesets. Then it devides all savesets to three groups. Two of them are used to run clonning on two separate tape drives. Third one runs on the next day and used to clone all &quot;big&quot; savesets, located on multiple volumes.

Basicay, you need a few commands :
mminfo
clone
for /F

If you need more information, let me know.
