Catalog utility search criteria and backup image details
The catalog utility in the NetBackup web UI lets you perform various actions on a catalog image. For example, verify or duplicate an image. The catalog utility is organized as follows:
Search tab
Provides the search criteria you can use to locate backup images. See Table: Catalog search criteria for details.
For more details on these actions and on data-in-transit encryption (DTE) in your NetBackup environment, see the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume I and NetBackup Security and Encryption Guide.
After you search for backup images, the image list displays at the bottom of the page. Click Show or hide columns to display additional information about the images. See Search results properties for additional properties that are displayed in the search results.
Activity tab
Displays the progress of the request to verify, duplicate, expire, or import an image.
The following actions and search criteria are available when you search for catalog images.
Table: Catalog search criteria
Property | Description | |
|---|---|---|
Action | Specifies the action that was used to create the image: . See Verify backup images. See Expire backup images. | |
Media | ||
Media ID | The media ID for the volume. To search on all media, select . | |
Media host | The host name of the media server that produced the originals. To search all hosts, select . | |
Disk type | The disk type of the storage unit. | |
Disk pool | The name of the disk pool. Not enabled if the disk type is BasicDisk. | |
Media server | The name of the media server that produced the original images. To search all media servers, select . | |
Volume | The ID of the disk volume in the disk pool. Enabled if the disk type is not BasicDisk. | |
Path | Searches for an image on a disk storage unit, if the path is entered. Or, searches all of the disk storage on the specified server, if was selected. Enabled if the disk type is BasicDisk. | |
Date/time range | The range of dates and times that you want to search. The Global attributes property determines the default range. | |
Copies | The copy that you want to search. Select either or the copy number. | |
Policy name | The policy under which the selected backups were performed. To search all policies, select . | |
The purpose of the policy. | ||
Type of backup | The type of schedule that created the backup. To search all schedule types, select . Enabled if you select a specific . | |
Client (host name) | The host name of the client that produced the backup. To search all hosts, select . | |
Job priority | ||
Override default job priority | The job priority for the catalog action (verify, duplicate, or import). To change the default, enable . Then, select a value for the . If this option is not enabled, the job runs using the default priority as specified in the Default job priorities host property. Changes that you make affect the priority for the selected job only. | |
The priority of the catalog job. Enabled if you override the default priority. | ||
In addition to properties that you can select for the search, other properties are displayed for the images.
Table: Catalog search results properties
Property | Description |

Indicates the data-in-transit encryption (DTE) mode for the backup image. | |
Indicates if the backup image is read-only and cannot be modified, corrupted, or encrypted. | |
Indicates if the backup image is protected from being deleted before it expires. | |
The scan status of the backup image. | |
Indicates if the image is a mirror replica or copy. | |
On hold | Indicates whether the image copy is on hold or not. Yes: The image has only one copy and a hold is set on the copy. No: No hold is set on the copy. A hold is set with the nbholdutil command. |
Time | The time that the backup ran. |
Indicates the time at which the image can be altered or deleted. Applies to the storage units that are WORM capable. |
