Use the NetBackup nbdevconfig command to change disk volume state. The state is UP or DOWN.
To change the state to DOWN, the disk pool in which the volume resides must not be busy. If backup jobs are assigned to the disk pool, the state change fails. Cancel the backup jobs or wait until the jobs complete.
NetBackup jobs still read from and write to a disk pool that has a downed volume, but the downed volume is unavailable.
To change the AdvancedDisk disk volume state
Determine the name of the disk volume. The following command lists all volumes in the specified disk pool:
install_path\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\nbdev query -listdv -stype AdvancedDisk -dp disk_pool_name
To display the disk volumes in all disk pools, omit the -dp option.
Change the disk volume state; the following is the command syntax:
install_path\NetBackup\bin\admincmd\nbdevconfig -changestate -stype AdvancedDisk -dp disk_pool_name - dv vol_name -state state
