IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, Version 7.1

QUERY EXPORT (Query for active or suspended export operations)

Use this command to list all restartable export operations. A restartable export is a server-to-server export operation whose FILEDATA value is not NONE. Only active server-to-server export operations that can be suspended are displayed.

Any EXPORT NODE or EXPORT SERVER operation with FILEDATA=NONE are not displayed. Additionally, the QUERY EXPORT command does not show export operations where the target device is either sequential media or virtual volumes.

Privilege class

An administrator can issue this command.

Parameters

export_identifier
This optional parameter is the unique string identifier for the server-to-server export operation. Wildcard characters can be used to specify this name, and all matching export operations are queried. If you do not specify a value for this parameter and you also do not specify a PROCESS identifier, then all export operations are queried.
STate
This optional parameter queries the state of the valid server-to-server export operations. The default value is ALL. The possible values are:
ALl
Lists all running and suspended server-to-server export operations.
RUnning
Lists all active server-to-server export operations that are identifying eligible files or exporting files to the target server.
SUSpended
Lists all suspended server-to-server export operations. These suspended operations stopped running because of a failure or by the SUSPEND EXPORT command being issued.
PROCess
This optional parameter specifies the number of a running server-to-server export operation that you want to query. If PROCESS is specified, Tivoli® Storage Manager only displays the running server-to-server export operation associated with the process number. If PROCESS is not specified, Tivoli Storage Manager displays information on all server-to-server export operations. You cannot specify this parameter if you specify an export identifier or if you specify the STATE parameter with a value of SUSPENDED.
Format
This optional parameter specifies how the information is displayed. The default value is STANDARD. Possible values are:
Standard
Specifies that partial information is displayed for the specified export operations.
Detailed
When specified, displays all available information for the export operations.

Field descriptions

Export identifier
The unique identifier assigned to this server-to-server export operation.
Start time
The time and date that this export operation was first initiated.
State
The current state of this export operation. The value is one of the following:
Running - Not Suspendible
The operation is active and is transmitting definitions to the target server. The process cannot be suspended, and if the process fails while in this state, you cannot restart it.
Running
The operation is active and is either searching for eligible files or transmitting file data to the target server.
Running - Suspend in Progress
The operation is in the process of being suspended as a result of a SUSPEND EXPORT command. The export operation is fully suspended when all of the data from the export operation is saved. An export operation in this state does not respond to the following commands:
  • CANCEL PROCESS
  • CANCEL EXPORT
  • RESTART EXPORT
  • SUSPEND EXPORT
Suspended
The operation stopped running due to a failure or was suspended with the SUSPEND EXPORT command.
Process ID
The process ID for the export operation when the status is either "Initializing" or "Running".
Command
The full command issued to start this server-to-server export.
Phase
The current step that the operation is performing. The possible phases are shown in the order in which they are performed:
Creating definitions on target server
The operation is exporting definitions. The process cannot be suspended. Should the process fail in this phase, it cannot be restarted.
Identifying and exporting eligible files
The operation is building a list of eligible files for export. Some files may also be transmitted to the target during this phase. A process in this phase can be suspended. Should the process fail in this phase, it can be restarted.
File list complete. Exporting eligible files
The operation has completed building the list of eligible files for export and it is now transmitting the files to the target. A process in this phase can be suspended. Should the process fail in this phase, it can be restarted.
Total running time
The overall running time for this server-to-server export operation. For example, if this operation started and was then suspended and restarted two times, this value is the total running time of all three active processes of the export operation.
Current process running time
The running time of the active process of a server-to-server export operation. No value is displayed for a suspended operation because no active process exists.
Export operation restart count
The number of times the server-to-server export operation was restarted.
Date and time of last restart
The last date and time at which this server-to-server export operation was restarted.
Date and time of last suspend
The last date and time at which this server-to-server export operation was suspended.
Policy domains exported
The number of policy domain definitions successfully exported to the target server.
Policy sets exported
The number of policy set definitions successfully exported to the target server.
Schedules exported
The number of schedule definitions successfully exported to the target server.
Mgmt classes exported
The number of management class definitions successfully exported to the target server.
Copy groups exported
The number of copy group definitions successfully exported to the target server.
Administrators exported
The number of administrator definitions successfully exported to the target server.
Option sets exported
The number of option set definitions successfully exported to the target server.
Node definitions exported
The number of node definitions successfully exported to the target server.
File space definitions exported
The number of file space definitions successfully exported to the target server.
Archive files exported
The number of archive files successfully exported to the target server.
Backup files exported
The number of backup files successfully exported to the target server.
Space managed files exported
The number of space managed files successfully exported to the target server.
Archive files skipped
The number of archive files that were eligible for export but were skipped.
Backup files skipped
The number of backup files that were eligible for export but were skipped.
Space managed files skipped
The number of space managed files that were eligible for export but were skipped.
Total bytes transferred (MB)
The total number of bytes transmitted so far to the target server for this export operation.
Total files to be transferred
The total number of files transmitted so far to the target server for this export operation.
Files remaining
The total number of files remaining to be transmitted to the target server for this export operation.
