Recover deleted Savesets

If you have not relabeled/overwritten your backup media you should be able to rebuild the metadata with scanner -i | -m device

Please read the appropriate Command Line Reference/Manpage for details.

There's an auto clean up setup in DataDomain & already the clean up was performed.

Is there anyway to recover ?

Next time you want 'support', please specify at least the minimum information about your environment. This will save time (and in your case - most likely data) and it will not build up frustration.

You most likely will not get a good answer here as this is not under NetWorker control any longer. And most of us do not have enough knowledge about the DD internals.

You can try the DD user group https://www.dell.com/community/Data-Domain/bd-p/data-domain or - because time does matter here - you better contact support directly.

If it is already expired by NW and cleaning on DD end has been performed, then it is already completely out of the hand s of the backup team. I don't even think Dell will do that much and would refer to specialized datarecovery companies to might be able to retrieve some data still possibly? Which would require them to have an get the disks from teh DD in question.

Whereas in the past with (virtual/physical) tape we'd still scan in the expired data, but in combination with a DD, where the daily nsrim client index maintenance markes data to become actually expired from a DD right there and then, combined with actual DD cleaning (in our case twice a week), we regard as too little too late and data being lost.

With tape, only data would be lost, once the tape header is being overwritten when a tape is being relabeled. Up until that time, all data is still there waiting to be scanned in.

I can't recall having been able to scan in that much data, if anything really, when it was already expired while using a DD. Then you'd have had to be very quickly, right in between two cleaning moments, to be lucky. Anything past a DD cleaning, we deem lost...
