Command Usage: samadmin v8_1_5
samadmin null volume synch

Just having some fun...
Command Description:

Updates the DB with retroactive information about files that are currently
listed as being on tape but with a null volume_id; updates the db with
fileSize, CRC, and volume information from Enstore when known.

Since there are old files on null volumes where the volume
information will never be known (especially in development), the
"--since=dd-mon-yyyy" option may be used to filter out the obsolete
stuff for faster performance.  A suitable date might be 1-jan-2005.


Usage:
       samadmin null volume synch [--options] [-flags]

Where:


  --options:
	             --connect=<value> # oracle username/password for connecting to this database
	    --corbaCallTimeout=<value> # time in seconds for CORBA method calls to return before timing out (default: 0; zero implies no timeout)
	       --retryInterval=<value> # retry interval base in seconds; will multiply this base times retryCount (default: 5)
	         --retryJitter=<value> # retry jitter, random jitter added to base retry interval times retryCount (default: 5)
	       --retryMaxCount=<value> # number of times to retry CORBA calls for retriable exceptions (default: 25; zero implies no retries)
	               --since=<value> # scan only those file locations created on or after this date (format: dd-mon-yyyy)

   -flags:
	                            -c # automatically close all servants after each method call
	                            -d # debug mode
	                            -s # retrySilently mode (do not issue messages to stderr on proxy retries)
	                            -t # time-it mode (print additional info on timings)
	                            -v # verbose mode

Required Data Types:
	                       connect : string 
	              corbaCallTimeout : int 
	                 retryInterval : int 
	                   retryJitter : int 
	                 retryMaxCount : int 
	                         since : SamTime 

You may omit "-c" if the $SAM_PYAPI_AUTO_CLOSE_SERVANTS environmental variable is set.
You may omit "--connect=<value>" if the $SAM_ORACLE_CONNECT environmental variable is set.
You may omit "--corbaCallTimeout=<value>" if the $SAM_PYAPI_CORBA_CALL_TIMEOUT environmental variable is set.
You may omit "--retryInterval=<value>" if the $SAM_PYAPI_RETRY_INTERVAL environmental variable is set.
You may omit "--retryJitter=<value>" if the $SAM_PYAPI_RETRY_JITTER environmental variable is set.
You may omit "--retryMaxCount=<value>" if the $SAM_PYAPI_RETRY_MAX_COUNT environmental variable is set.
You may omit "-s" if the $SAM_PYAPI_RETRY_SILENTLY environmental variable is set.

UNIX ExitStatus:
	             Success :   0
	Unhandled exceptions : 127
