Verifying an expired backup

You can verify an expired backup in case subsequent backups are not valid.

To verify an expired backup:

  1. Check that the status of the backup save set on the storage manager. If the storage manager expired the backup save set, the archecker utility cannot verify it.
  2. Use the storage-manager commands for activating the expired backup save set. See your storage-manager documentation.
  3. Run the onbar -v command again.
