VMBSCAN can only show domain-level information for minidisks backed up in CMSALLOC or physical format.
VMBSCAN does not scan tapes that were created with encryption. If any of the data on a tape is encrypted, VMBSCAN processing stops.
If the tape that VMBSCAN is scanning contains multiple data sets, the report contains information for all data sets on the tape. Also, if the tape that VMBSCAN is scanning belongs to a CA VM:Backup tape stream or to a CA VM:Archiver tape set containing multiple tapes, the utility will indicate the volser of the next tape in the tape stream or tape set. A data set that spans two or more tapes will be correctly scanned if the tapes are mounted in sequence. VMBSCAN stops scanning when the end-of-tape marker is found when searching for the next data set on the tape.
VMBSCAN always provides domain-level detail for non-encrypted, empty minidisks, even if you specify file-level detail.
If VMBSCAN encounters a partial backup of a minidisk (as indicated by a CAN1 record on the tape), VMBSCAN issues this message and continues processing:
0018I CANCELLATION RECORD FOUND FOR useridvaddr; THIS IS
NOT THE VALID BACKUP COPY OF THIS MINIDISK.
