DINO ANALYSES FOR LEGATO
Company: Dino Software
DAL is a Microsoft Excel application that uses Visual Basic macro instructions to process data from Legato databases. The data represents every backup for which records still exist in the Legato database. The data is obtained via Legato commands in lieu of accessing the Legato databases directly for several reasons. In older versions of Legato, data was stored in several different databases. In newer versions, that technique was changed so it would have been necessary to support multiple techniques to acquire the data. Accessing the database directly brings with it the added complexity of encoded fields whereby each bit may represent something. Not knowing what each bit represents would make it impossible to use the raw data. So issuing commands to a Legato server creates interpreted output regardless of software level, database type, or operating system. DAL was developed to create a picture of a Legato backup environment without having extensive experience with Legato commands in an easy to view format. A spreadsheet was chosen to host the data because of the extensive capabilities of a spreadsheet to further analyze the data. One seemingly limiting factor is the constraint of having only 65,536 rows to accommodate the data records. But this restriction was easily overcome with a small script program to breakup the large file generated by the Legato command into smaller files of up to 65,536 records each. The analysis can then load up to five such files into separate worksheets which are then used to generate the analysis. To run the program is simple. Simply copy the DAL spreadsheet program and the output file from the Legato command to the same directory, set the full path name in cell B2 of the CONTROL Worksheet, and click on the button IMPORT DATA FILES. That’s it. When it is finished you can view the various worksheets.
