To manually reset the mount time for a tape drive in NetBackup, you can use the tpclean command.
To view the status of your tape drives, you can use the following command:
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpclean -L
The output will look like this:
Drive Name Type Mount Time Frequency Last Cleaned Comment
********** **** ********** ********* **************** *******
IBM.000 hcart* 100.0 0 15:23 10/29/2010
IBM.001 hcart* 99.0 0 15:21 10/19/2010
IBM.002 hcart* 87.1 0 15:29 11/20/2010
IBM.003 hcart* 19.1 0 15:23 11/28/2010
If you just cleaned drive IBM.003 and you want to reset the mount time, you can use this command:
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpclean -M
Ex.
/usr/openv/volmgr/bin/tpclean -M IBM.003
Upon doing so, the mount time will be reset for IBM.003.
