Hi All,

Is it possible, in Metallic, to see how many records still need to be pruned in SIDBPrune.log or SIDBEngine.log?

Thanks',

Look for a line like this in SIDBEngline.log:

SIDBEngine.log
==================
Pending Deletes [11697075]-[7788781363083]-[8891]-[4006420250]-[8890]-[4006404596],
18372 44a8 03/22 23:46:18 ####### 121-0-152-0 LogCtrs

Do a search for Pending Deletes (using something like WinGrep) and look at the trending numbers to see if they are going down over time (they might go up upon running Data Aging, but they should be trending down before going up).

Let me know if that helps!

@Shane , can you confirm if you’re referring to an MCSS/MRR library, or a disk library you have locally via your own Media Agent connected to Metallic?

Thanks!

Hi MIke, a local, on-prem library connected to a local Media Agent connected to Metallic.
