Determination of a mount point

The following table describes how Application Agent determines a mount point when executing the
command for mounting a second volume. The following explains separately when the command is
executed with a backup ID specified in the option, and when the command is executed with a copy
group specified in the option.

Table 51 How to determine a mount point when the command for mounting a secondary volume is
executed (with a backup id specified in the option)

Mount point

Copy group mount definition
file

Is a mount point name specified
by the -mount_pt option when
executing the command?

A mount point specified in the copy
group mount definition file and a
mount point name specified in the

-mount_pt

option are used

#1

Yes

Yes

A mount point specified in the

-mount_pt

option is used

#2

No

A mount point in the copy group
mount definition file is used

#3

Yes

No

Application Agent determines a
mount point automatically (Unused
drives will be selected.)

No

Legend:

Yes: Any mount point name is specified or the definition file exists.
No: No mount point name is specified or the definition file does not exist

#1

When a drive name is specified in the

-mount_pt

option, the system selects the unoccupied

drives from the specified drives and mounts them in alphabetical order.
If you specify an absolute path that begins with the drive letter as a mount point directory name
in the

-mount_pt

option, the mount point should be absolute-path-specified-as-a-mount-point-

directory-name

\

mount-point-in-the-copy-group-mount-definition-file.

For example, when

W:\

is specified in the

-mount_pt

option and

FS=D:\

is specified in the

copy group mount definition file, the system mounts the unoccupied drives from the

W

drive. When

W:\mnt

is specified in the

-mount_pt

option and

FS=D:\mnt

is specified in the copy group

mount definition file, the mount point will be

W:\mnt\D\mnt

.

#2

If a backslash (

\

) is not attached to the end of the specified mount point, it is assumed that a

backslash (

\

) exists. For example, the system recognizes

D:

is the same drive as

D:\

.

D:\

MOUNTDIR

is the same directory as

D:\MOUNTDIR\

.
