DESCRIPTION
The following tasks can be performed using the omnidbxp command:
QUERYING THE INFORMATION ON BACKUP OBJECTS AND MANIPULATING
THE LDEV EXCLUDE FILE
The omnidbxp command can be used to query the information stored in the ZDB
database (XPDB), which stores the information about the LDEVs pairs and their mirror
configurations during the Data Protector HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP backup
and restore sessions. The XPDB is a set of ASCII files stored on the Cell Manager in
the directory Data_Protector_program_data\db40\xpdb (Windows Server
2008), Data_Protector_home\db40\xpdb (other Windows systems), or
/var/opt/omni/server/db40/xpdb (UNIX systems). The XPDB contains data
about the split P-VOL - S-VOL pairs used with the Data Protector HP StorageWorks
Disk Array XP integration in a set of XPDB records. The XPDB is written to whenever
a pair is split using the Data Protector HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP integration.
A pair is deleted from the XPDB whenever such a pair is resynchronized using the
Data Protector HP StorageWorks Disk Array XP integration.
The omnidbxp command can also be used to manipulate the XP LDEV exclude file.
The XP LDEV exclude file enables disabling of using certain LDEVs on the backup
system (S-VOL LDEVs) by Data Protector. Thus, it is possible to reserve certain LDEVs
