DPM 2007 – Script per impostare una tape come free

L'obiettivo di questo articolo è quello di fornire uno script, per marcare una tape come free, prima che la relativa data di retention sia trascorsa.

DPM non consente, infatti, di effettuare questa operazione da interfaccia grafica. Tuttavia, potrebbe essere necessario in particolari scenari, esempio durante una fase di test, recuperare un tape marcandolo come free.

A tal fine, prendiamo in considerazione il seguente script che andrà salvato con estensione .ps1:

----------------------------- Start of Script --------------------------------

param ([string] $DPMServerName, [string] $LibraryName, [string[]] $TapeLocationList)

if(("-?","-help") -contains $args[0])
{
    Write-Host "Usage: ForceFree-Tape.ps1 [[-DPMServerName] <Name of the DPM server>] [-LibraryName] <Name of the library> [-TapeLocationList] <Array of tape locations>"
    Write-Host "Example: Force-FreeTape.ps1 -LibraryName "My library" -TapeLocationList Slot-1, Slot-7"
    exit 0
}

if (!$DPMServerName)
{
    $DPMServerName = Read-Host "DPM server name: "

    if (!$DPMServerName)
    {
        Write-Error "Dpm server name not specified."
        exit 1
    }
}

if (!$LibraryName)
{
    $LibraryName = Read-Host "Library name: "

    if (!$LibraryName)
    {
        Write-Error "Library name not specified."
        exit 1
    }
}

if (!$TapeLocationList)
{
    $TapeLocationList = Read-Host "Tape location: "

    if (!$TapeLocationList)
    {
        Write-Error "Tape location not specified."
        exit 1
    }
}

if (!(Connect-DPMServer $DPMServerName))
{
    Write-Error "Failed to connect To DPM server $DPMServerName"
    exit 1
}

$library = Get-DPMLibrary $DPMServerName | where {$_.UserFriendlyName -eq $LibraryName}

if (!$library)
{
    Write-Error "Failed to find library with user friendly name $LibraryName"
    exit 1
}

foreach ($media in @(Get-Tape -DPMLibrary $library))
{
    if ($TapeLocationList -contains $media.Location)
    {
        if ($media -is [Microsoft.Internal.EnterpriseStorage.Dls.UI.ObjectModel.LibraryManagement.ArchiveMedia])  
        {
            foreach ($rp in @(Get-RecoveryPoint -Tape $media))
            {
                Get-RecoveryPoint -Datasource $rp.Datasource | Out-Null

                Write-Verbose "Removing recovery point created at $($rp.RepresentedPointInTime) for tape in $($media.Location)."
                Remove-RecoveryPoint -RecoveryPoint $rp -ForceDeletion -Confirm:$false
            }

            Write-Verbose "Setting tape in $($media.Location) as free."
            Set-Tape -Tape $media -Free
        }
        else
        {
            Write-Error "The tape in $($media.Location) is a cleaner tape."
        }
    }
}

----------------------------- End of Script --------------------------------
