  1. Navigate to the BrmBackupManager managed object, for example:

    >dn ManagedElement=NODE06ST,SystemFunctions=1,BrM=1,BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA

  2. List the backups:

    (BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA)>show-table -m BrmBackup -p backupName,creationType,creationTime

    The following is an example output:

    backupName

    creationType

    creationTime

    BrmBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140428_175907

    SCHEDULED

    2014-04-28T00:00:00

    BrmBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_100533

    MANUAL

    2014-05-01T20:00:02

    BrmBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_100926

    SCHEDULED

    2014-05-01T22:00:00

    BrmBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_101310

    MANUAL

    2014-05-01T16:41:31

    BrmBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_102102

    SCHEDULED

    2014-05-01T02:00:00

    BrmBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_102500

    SCHEDULED

    2014-05-01T04:00:00

  3. Check the system software version of a backup, for example:

    (BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA)>show BrmBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_102500,swVersion

    swVersion
       description="ERIC-COREMW_RUNTIME"
       productionDate="2014-04-02T11:42:34"
       productName="ERIC-COREMW_RUNTIME"
       productNumber="CXP9020355_1"
       productRevision="R7E01"
       type="MW"
  4. Navigate to the BrmBackupLabelStore MO, for example:

    (BrmBackupManager=SYSTEM_DATA)>BrmBackupLabelStore=SYSTEM_DATA

  5. List the backup labels:

    (BrmBackupLabelStore=SYSTEM_DATA)>show

    The following is an example output:

    lastCreatedBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_102500
    lastExportedBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_102102
    lastImportedBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_100926
    lastRestoredBackup=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_100533
    restoreEscalationList=PERF_BACKUP_NAME1_20140501_102500

    The output includes the following:

    • Last created backup – Identifies the most recently created backup.
    • Last imported backup – Identifies the latest imported backup to the Managed Element (ME).
    • Last exported backup – Identifies the latest exported backup from the ME.
    • Last restored backup – Identifies the backup that was last used to restore the ME.
    • Restore escalation list – Identifies the last created or last restored backup, whichever is the last backup.
