Authorization: SYSADMIN
Use the CHECK command to examine the structure of CA VM:Backup catalog files and produce a report on any problems found.
You cannot enter CHECK while any of the following are executing:
The level of detail available in the catalog report is hierarchically organized, with DOMAINS providing the greatest amount of information and STATS providing the least. Except for STATS, which is provided only if it is requested explicitly, a high-level report includes the information provided at lower levels.
Catalog files are stored on the catalog disk. The files are at the virtual address that is specified on the CATDISK configuration file record on the VMBACKUP CONFIG file.
This command has the following format:
CHEck [(["Option A"] ["Option B"] ["Option C"]] Option A:
CATalog [dumpjob | *] Option B:
DETAIL | DOMAIns | ERRors | STATs | SUMmary Option C:
DISK | PRInter | TERMinal
Checks the structure of the specified catalog or catalogs. dumpjob is the filename of a single catalog DUMPJOB file to be checked. If you specify an asterisk, the entire catalog disk is checked.
Specifies the type of information you want CA VM:Backup to report about the catalog.
DETAIL checks the file structure of the specified catalog by examining and reporting on the catalog data files. The report does not list the minidisks or file spaces backed up in a particular catalog.
DOMAIN checks the file structure of the specified catalog and provides information about which minidisks and file spaces were backed up, the starting tape volser to which data was backed up, the type of backup performed (full or incremental), and the level of detail included in the catalog (file or domain). This option provides the most complete report.
ERROR checks the file structure of the specified catalog and displays a report on only those files in error. The report indicates the total number of errors found. If none of the files contain errors, no report is produced and the command exits with a return code of 0.
STATS checks the file structure for the entire catalog disk and displays statistical messages indicating the number and type of catalog data files found (DUMPJOB, DETAIL, and FILEnnnn). It also shows the total number of errors found, if any.
Note: If you specify the STATS option with the CATALOG dumpjob option, CA VM:Backup disregards the dumpjob value and displays the messages for the entire catalog disk.
SUMMARY checks the high-level file structure of the specified catalog by examining and reporting on only the DUMPJOB files and their relationship to each other.
(Optional) Specifies the destination of the report. You can specify only one output option.
DISK writes the report to the CATCHECK OUTPUT file on the A-disk of the requesting user ID. If this file already exists, it is replaced by the new report. You cannot use this option with SMSG or issue it from the CA VM:Backup console.
PRINTER sends the report to the virtual printer. PRINTER can also be issued by a CA VM:Backup system administrator on the Manage Existing Catalogs screen to produce a domain-level detail report on selected catalogs. You cannot use this option with SMSG or issue it from the CA VM:Backup console.
TERMINAL displays the report on the virtual console.
To check the file structure for the catalog disk using the STATS option, enter the following command:
vmbackup check (catalog * stats
CA VM:Backup issues a response similar to the following:
FILETYPE COUNT DUMPJOB 30 DETAIL 114 FILENNNN 222 -------- --- TOTAL 366 VMBMAP0890I 0 ERRORS WERE FOUND ON CATALOG MINIDISK 01B0.
