3 backup_volinfo - Displays a volume's dump history from the Backup Database
10 B<backup volinfo> S<<< B<-volume> <I<volume name>> >>> [B<-localauth>]
11 S<<< [B<-cell> <I<cell name>>] >>> [B<-help>]
13 B<backup voli> S<<< B<-v> <I<volume name>> >>>
14 [B<-l>] S<<< [B<-c> <I<cell name>>] >>> [B<-h>]
21 The B<backup volinfo> command displays a dump history of the specified
22 volume, reporting information such as the date on which the volume was
23 dumped and the tapes that contain it. Include the C<.backup> extension on
24 the volume name if the backup version of the volume was dumped.
30 =item B<-volume> <I<volume name>>
32 Names the volume for which to display the dump history. Include the
33 C<.backup> or C<.readonly> extension if the backup or read-only version of
34 the volume was dumped.
38 Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
39 F</usr/afs/etc/KeyFile> file. The B<backup> command interpreter presents
40 it to the Backup Server, Volume Server and VL Server during mutual
41 authentication. Do not combine this flag with the B<-cell> argument. For
42 more details, see L<backup(8)>.
44 =item B<-cell> <I<cell name>>
46 Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument
47 with the B<-localauth> flag. For more details, see L<backup(8)>.
51 Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are
58 The output includes a line for each Backup Database dump record that
59 mentions the specified volume, order from most to least recent. The output
60 for each record appears in a table with six columns:
66 The dump ID of the dump that includes the volume.
70 The depth in the dump hierarchy of the dump level at which the volume was
71 dumped. A value of C<0> indicates a full dump. A value of C<1> or greater
72 indicates an incremental dump made at the specified depth in the dump
77 The dump ID of the dump's parent dump. A value of C<0> indicates a full
78 dump, which has no parent; in this case, the value in the C<lvl> column is
83 The date and time at which the Backup System started the dump operation
84 that created the dump.
88 For a backup or read-only volume, the time at which it was cloned from its
89 read/write source. For a read/write volume, the same as the value in the
90 C<creation date> field.
94 The name of the tape containing the dump: either the permanent tape name,
95 or an AFS tape name in the format
96 I<volume_set_name>.I<dump_level_name>.I<tape_index> where
97 I<volume_set_name> is the name of the volume set associated with the
98 initial dump in the dump set of which this tape is a part;
99 I<dump_level_name> is the name of the dump level at which the initial dump
100 was backed up; I<tape_index> is the ordinal of the tape in the dump
101 set. Either type of name can be followed by a dump ID in parentheses; if
102 it appears, it is the dump ID of the initial dump in the dump set to which
103 this appended dump belongs.
109 The following example shows part of the dump history of the Backup volume
110 C<user.smith.backup>:
112 % backup volinfo -volume user.smith.backup
