Browsing backups using the bplist command
You can use the bplist command to browse Oracle backups. The command returns a list of backup file names.
Before using this command, log as follows into either the primary server or to the client:
On Windows, log on as administrator to the primary server and to the client with the appropriate altnames entry.
On UNIX and Linux, log on as root to the primary server and to the client with the appropriate altnames entry.
The following example uses the command to search all Oracle backups for a client named jupiter:
# bplist -C jupiter -t 4 -R /
/exb_n2bm5bco_1_1392342936 /exb_mabm02ko_1_1392170136 /exb_lqbltds6_1_1392083334
The -t 4 on this command specifies the Oracle backups. The -R specifies the default number (999) of directory levels to search.
For more information on the bplist command, see the NetBackup Commands Reference Guide.
You can also use the RMAN report and list commands to browse Oracle backups.
