bplist -R 1 -C haries -I "/"
bpplclients -allunique -l 
## From web examples
I would like to propose a set of "golden rules" for bplist command:
  1. Always specify policy type (-t).
  2. Always provide relevand data range (-s, -d).
  3. Mind the listing recursiveness (-R) as it may be too verbose when you just put the "/" or it may not show anything for non-file like backup types.
  4. Provide as many other details as possible to speed up the search.
Template for good examples:
bplist -C <ClientName> -S <MasterServer> -t <PolicyType> -k <PolicyName> -s MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS -e MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS -R /
That may result in something like:
bplist -C MyClient -S MyMaster -t 4 -k OraclePolicyName -s 08/08/2014 08:00:00 -e 09/09/2014 08:00:00 -R /
>> bpclimagelist -U -client server1-bak

Command Line Interface for NetBackup Reports Note:

<start_date> and <end_date> syntax: MM/DD/YY
<start_time> and <end_time> syntax: hh:mm:ss
<media_id> is the six-character media identification number

Backup status report
Backup Status Report The Backup Status report shows status and error information on jobs completed within the specified time period. If an error has occurred, a short explanation of the error is included.

1. cd /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd
2. ./bperror -U -backstat -s info [-d <start_date> <start_time> -e <end_date> <end_time>]

Client Backups Report The Client Backups report shows detailed information on backups completed within the specified time period.

1. cd /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd
2. ./bpimagelist -U [-A|-client name] [-d <start_date> <start_time> -e <end_date> <end_time>]

Problems Report The Problems report lists the problems that the server has logged during the specified time period. This information is a subset of the information you get from the All Log Entries report.

1. cd /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/admincmd
2. ./bperror -U -problems [-d <start_date> <start_time> -e <end_date> <end_time>]

Dealing with orphaned resource allocations

There may be orphaned resource allocations.
 
If the orphaned allocation can be seen in the 'MDS Allocations' section of 'nbrbutil -dump' output, this allocation can be released with 'nbrbutil -releaseMDS <id> '
 
Sometimes these orphaned allocations are hidden and can only be released with 'nbrbutil -resetall'.
 
There should be no backups active when this command is run.
