lssection

Purpose

Use the lssection command to list backup sections matching the criteria selected on the command line. A backup section is the portion of a backup image that occupies one physical volume. Oracle Secure Backup obtains backup section data from the backup sections catalog.

See Also:

"Section Commands" for related commands

Prerequisites

You must have the right to query and display information about devices to use the lssection command.

Syntax

lssection::=

lsse•ction [ --long/-l | --short/-s ] [ --noheader/-H ] [ --incomplete/-i ]
[ --oid/-o oid-list ]... [ { { --vid/-v vid-list } | { --void/-V oid-list } }
[ --file/-f filenumber-list ]... ]

Semantics

--long/-l

Displays section data in long form.

--short/-s

Displays only the object ID of each backup section record selected.

--noheader/-H

Displays data without column headings.

--incomplete/-i

Displays section information even if the related volume data is missing from the backup sections catalog.

--oid oid-list

Selects backup sections with the object identifiers matching those in oid-list. Refer to "oid-list" for a description of the oid-list placeholder.

--vid vid-list

Selects backup sections contained on the volumes whose IDs are supplied in vid-list. A vid-list is one or more vid values separated by commas. Refer to"vid" for a description of the vid placeholder.

--void void-list

Selects backup sections contained on the volumes whose volume object identifiers are supplied in the list. The void-list placeholder represents an oid-list of volume IDs. Refer to "oid-list" for a description of the oid-list placeholder.

--file/-f filenumber-list

Selects only those backup sections having the file numbers specified the list. Refer to "filenumber-list" for a description of the filenumber-list placeholder.

Table 2-17 describes the output of the lssection command.

Example

Example 2-73 displays the object identifiers of all backup sections in the backup sections catalog. The lssection command then displays data for section 108 in the default standard format to determine which volume it is on. The command then displays all backup sections on this volume in long format.
