NAME

backup_delvolset - Deletes one or more volume sets from the Backup Database

SYNOPSIS

backup delvolset -name <volume set name>+ [-localauth] [-butc_noauth] [-cell <cell name>] [-config <configuration file>] [-help]

DESCRIPTION

The backup delvolset command deletes each volume set named by the -name argument, and the volume entries each contains, from the Backup Database. The backup listvolsets command lists the volume sets (and their volume entries) currently defined in the Backup Database.

CAUTIONS

Deleting a temporary volume set is possible only within the interactive session in which it was created. Exiting the interactive session also destroys the temporary volume set automatically.

OPTIONS

-name <volume set name>+

Names each volume set to delete.

-localauth

Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/yfs/server/KeyFileExt file. The backup command interpreter presents it to the Backup Server, Volume Server and VL Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell argument. For more details, see backup(8).

-butc_noauth

Assigns the unprivileged identity anonymous to the issuer for all connections to Tape Controllers butc. This option should only be used when the Tape Controller is incapable of authenticated connections.

-cell <cell name>

Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag. For more details, see backup(8).

-config <configuration file>

Sets the location of the configuration file to be used. The default file is /etc/yfs/yfs-client.conf.

-help

Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

EXAMPLES

The following command deletes the volume set called user and all volume entries in it:

   % backup delvolset user

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

The issuer must be listed in the /etc/yfs/server/UserListExt file on every machine where the Backup Server is running, or must be logged onto a server with an account capable of reading the /etc/yfs/server/KeyFileExt file if the -localauth flag is included. =head1 SEE ALSO
