Check Whether Data Protector Functions Properly

Overview of Items to Be Checked

In order to ensure that Data Protector is functioning properly and to identify potential problems before they arise, it is recommended that you perform regular checks as described in the following sections.

Using the User Check Failed notification, it is possible to automate these checks by developing scripts including these checks. Some of the checks (for example the omnihealthcheck and omnitrig -run_checkscommands) are already automated by the means of Data Protector checking and maintenance mechanism.

Check the Data Protector Cell Manager

1.Run the omnihealthcheck command to check the following:

•whether the Data Protector services (rds, crs, mmd, omnitrig, and OmniInet) are active

•whether the Data Protector Media Management Database is consistent

•whether at least one backup of the IDB exists

The exit code of the command is 0 (OK) only if all three checks completed successfully (exit code for every check was 0). Exit values other than 0 indicate that one or more of the checks failed.

For more information on exit codes, refer to omnihealthcheck man page.

2.Run the omnidbcheck -corecommand to check the core parts of the IDB.

The exit code of the command is 0 (OK) only if the check completed successfully. Exit values other than 0 indicate that the check failed.

For more information on exit codes, refer to omnihealthcheck man page.

3.Check the critical parts of IDB using the omnidbcheck -criticalcommand. For more information on the omnidbcheck command, refer to omnidbcheck man page.

The exit code of the command is 0 (OK) only if the check completed successfully. Exit values other than 0 indicate that the check failed. For more information on exit codes, refer to omnidbcheck man page.
