Where
<file_name>
is the name of the file you will use to simulate a
dirty drive, and
<drive_name>
is the name of the drive you want to
test.
You can add multiple entries for various drives. Do not add any
directories in front of the name of the file.
Testing the
Configuration
In order to test your configuration, do the following:
1. In the Data Protector
tmp
directory, create an empty file that will be
used to simulate a dirty drive. Use the same name as in the
simtab
or
.simtab
file.
2. Start a backup using the drive you are testing.
Data Protector behaves as though the selected drive were dirty and
performs the cleaning action.
To stop simulating dirty drive behavior for the specific drive, delete the
file used for simulation.
