Processing the MSDP transaction queue manually
NetBackup maintains a queue for MSDP database transactions.
Usually, you should not need to run the deduplication database transaction queue processes manually. However, when you recover the MSDP catalog from a backup, you must process the MSDP transaction queue. Processing the transaction queue is part of a larger process.
To process the MSDP transaction queue manually
- On the MSDP storage server, run the following command:
UNIX:
/usr/openv/pdde/pdcr/bin/crcontrol --processqueue
Windows:
install_path\Veritas\pdde\Crcontrol.exe --processqueue
- To determine if the queue processing is still active, run the following command:
UNIX:
/usr/openv/pdde/pdcr/bin/crcontrol --processqueueinfo
Windows:
install_path\Veritas\pdde\Crcontrol.exe --processqueueinfo
If the output shows Busy : yes, the queue is still active.
- To examine the results, run the following command (number 1 not lowercase letter l):
UNIX:
/usr/openv/pdde/pdcr/bin/crcontrol --dsstat 1
Windows:
install_path\Veritas\pdde\Crcontrol.exe --dsstat 1
The command may run for a long time; if you omit the 1, results return more quickly but they are not as accurate.
