OpenAFS 2025-03-21 BACKUP_LISTVOLSETS(8)
Description
The backuplistvolsets command displays the Backup Database records for either
• All volume sets and their volume entries, if the -name argument is omitted.
• The volume set specified by the -name argument, along with its volume entries.
Examples
The following example shows the volume entries in the three volume sets currently defined in the Backup
Database:
% backup listvolsets
Volume set user:
Entry 1: server .*, partition .*, volumes: user.*\.backup
Volume set sun
Entry 1: server .*, partition .*, volumes: sun4x_55\..*
Entry 2: server .*, partition .*, volumes: sun4x_56\..*
Volume set rs
Entry 1: server .*, partition .*, volumes: rs_aix42\..*
Name
backup_listvolsets - Lists volume set entries from the Backup Database
Options
-name <volumesetname>
Names the volume set to display. If this argument is omitted, the output lists all volume sets
defined in the Backup Database.
-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile 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).
-cell <cellname>
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag.
For more details, see backup(8).
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
Output
The entry for each volume set begins with the "Volume set" header and the volume set's name. A temporary
volume set's name is followed by the string " (temporary)". Each volume entry follows on a separate line,
indicating the entry's index number and the server, partition, and volume names it matches. The output
uses the metacharacter notation described on the backupaddvolentry reference page. Use the index number
to identify volume entries when deleting them with the backupdelvolentry command.
Privilege Required
The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on every machine where the Backup
Server is running, or must be logged onto a server machine as the local superuser "root" if the
-localauth flag is included.
