I don't know the answer to this one
- Does HP update the Hash value while it is doing the backup?
but, I don't think so after 'googling' Hash Value
- Can someone explain me what object and label are?
An Object is a Mounted File system. In Data Protector, objects are represented as
hostname:volume 'Label'
The lable is either assigned automatically as the same as the Mountpoint, for example
myhost.com:/E [/E]
where [/E] is the lable, the label can be assigned by the OS, for example, on my system
myhost.com:/E [/E WD Passport]
or, by editing the Description box in the Backup Object Summary for each Object
The easiest way to find an Object name is to get the session ID of a Backup, and run
omnidb -session session_id -detail
------------------
- How to get the list of the files in a certain backup?
THere are two ways, one is from the Internal Database, the other is from the Media. In either case, the output should be re-directed to a file
From the IDB
omnidb OBject Name -session -catalog
so, for example
omnidb -winfs myhost.com:/E "[/E WD Passport]" -session 2014/06/02-1 -catalog
for files backed up on a Windows system, and
omnidb -filesystem myhost.com:/tmp '[/tmp]' -session 2014/06/02-1 -catalog
Windows system have the lable surrounded by " marks, with the Backup type of 'winfs', UNIX systems have ther label surrounded by ' marks' and are of the type 'filesystem'
In either case, this is done on an Object by object basis, and the syntax must be exact. I usually get a 'detail' report, and copy the Object name into the command, changign the ' to " if needed

- How to restore individual files from HP? Is it with omnir?
Typically speaking, it is much easier to restore using the GUI, but, if wanting to do thsi from teh comand line, the syntax is
omnir Object name -session [session_id] -trees [path to filename]
If you look at the CLI Guide for 'omnir' there are 35 examples given. Since there are no examples give for a File system restore for Windows, here is one
omnir -winfs myhost.com:/E "[/E WD Passport]" -session 2014/06/02-1 -trees /temp/myfile
I am not 100% sure of the / marks, they may need to be \
