Continuous Access XP Journal user guide 171

NOTE:

When the S-VOL is the file system managed by NAS/Sync Image, mount the

differential-data snapshots using the

syncmount

command, and create the CIFS/NFS shares using

the

enas_nfscreate

and

enas_cifscreate

commands, if necessary.

11.

At the secondary site, start the program that accesses the S-VOL.

Online backup

To split the Continuous Access XP Journal volume pair with online backup:

1.

At the primary site, prevent NAS Sync Image from performing operations on the P-VOL, hold the write

request to the P-VOL, and write the unapplied data to the disk.

sudo horc_pvol_freeze -f Source-file-system-name

2.

At the primary site, split the Continuous Access XP Journal volume pair.

sudo pairsplit {-g group-name|-d volume-name} -rw

3.

At the primary site, verify that the Continuous Access XP Journal volume pair has been split.

sudo pairvolchk {-g group-name|-d volume-name}

NOTE:

You can also use the

pairevtwait

command, which waits for the pair to be split (PSUS).

pairvolchk : Volstat is P-VOL.[status = COPY] => Splitting

pairvolchk : Volstat is P-VOL.[status = PSUS] => Split completes

4.

At the primary site, permit the write request to the P-VOL, and enable the operations from NAS Sync

Image on the P-VOL.

sudo horc_pvol_unfreeze -f Source-file-system-name

5.

At the secondary site, connect the target file system to the NAS package.
• Non-LVM:

sudo horc_svol_import -f Target-file-system-name -d Device-file-number

• LVM:

sudo horc_svol_vmimport -f Target-file-system-name -d

Device-file-number, ...

6.

At the secondary site, mount the S-VOL using the

enas_fsmount

command.

7.

Create a shared directory using the

enas_dircreate

command, or change the attributes of a

shared directory using the

enas_diredit

command.

8.

Create CIFS/NFS shares using the

enas_nfscreate

and

enas_cifscreate

command.s

NOTE:

When the S-VOL is the file system managed by NAS Sync Image, mount the

differential-data snapshots using the

syncmount

command, and create the CIFS/NFS shares using

the

enas_nfscreate

and

enas_cifscreate

commands, if necessary.

9.

At the secondary site, start the program that accesses the S-VOL.

Resynchronizing Continuous Access XP Journal volume pairs

You must delete the target file system using the

enas_fsdelete

command before resynchronizing the

volume pair. Deleting the target file system, however, clears only the file system’s management area.

Resynchronizing the volume pair is not the same as performing an initial copy.

NOTE:

When the S-VOL is the file system managed by NAS Sync Image, unmount the differential-data

snapshots, and release the differential-data storage devices before using the

enas_fsdelete

command.
