MMLOCATE(8) Legato NetWorker 4.0 MMLOCATE(8)
NAME
mmlocate - NetWorker media location reporting command
SYNOPSIS
mmlocate [ -d | -l ] [ -s server ] [ -n volname | -i volid ] [ loca
tion ]
mmlocate -L [ -s server ]
mmlocate -u [ -s server ] [ -f ] -n volname location
mmlocate -u [ -s server ] [ -f ] -i volid location
DESCRIPTION
The mmlocate command is used to access and manage the volume location
information contained in the media database. The information con
tained in the location record is meant to give the user an idea of
where the volume can physically be found. Other NetWorker commands
will display the location along with the volume name (see the ver
sions sub-command of recover(8)). Any user is allowed to use this
command with the -l (default) or -L options. The -d and -u options
are limited to the super-user.
Running mmlocate without any arguments will list the entire location
database for the specified server. If no server is specified the
current host is used.
When a new volume is created using the nsrmm(8) command a default
location is not created. The mmlocate command must be used to create
the location record.
OPTIONS
-d Delete those location records that match the supplied location
and volume name (volname). If either location or volname is
not supplied, that field is ignored for the match. If no
fields are supplied, all records in the location portion of
the database are deleted. Only one location argument is
accepted.
-f When used with the -u option, force the supplied location to
be used. If this option is not supplied with the -u option
and the location supplied does not currently exist in the
database, the user is prompted for permission to add this
record.
-i volid
Restrict the operation to volid.
-l List entries (default). A database query is performed using
the supplied volname or volid and/or location.
The query lists those records that match volname or volid AND
location. If volname or volid and/or location is not supplied
all cases of the missing argument will match.
-L List all locations found in the database.

-n volname
Restrict the operation to volname.
-s server
Use server's media database.
-u Update or add a location record to the database. A -n volname
or -i volid and a location must be supplied.
If the volume volname does not exist, no location record will
be added.
If a record for the volname or volid already exists the loca
tion field will be changed to location. If no record exists,
one will be added. See also -f above. Print debugging and
progress information.
