RMExch reset

SYNTAX

To reset the Recovery Manager for Exchange locking on remote Windows host:

RMExch reset <-s exchange server> <-opt lock>

To reset the mount status of a particular timestamp record:

RMExch reset <-s exchange server> <-g storage group> <-t timestamp>

<-opt status>

DESCRIPTION

The RMExch reset command resets a virtual copy mounting status in the repository record and
internal process locking status on any designated Recovery Manager for Exchange installed system
with only the status option being supported. Executing this command with status option will
force the removal of currently exposed VLUNs and set the mounting status to "Available".

PARAMETERS

The following options are supported:

-s <ExchangeServer>

- The name of the exchange server to which the storage group

belongs. If the host is in another domain, specify the FQDN.

-g <StorageGroup>

- The name of the storage group to which the virtual copy timestamp

belongs.

–t <Timestamp>

- Optional - The timestamp of the virtual copy. Requires the <-opt status>

option.

-opt <Option>

- Specifies whether to reset the locking or mounting status. Currently

supported options are lock and status. The lock option is only used to unlock Recovery
Manager from previous virtual copy creation failure caused by unexpected termination.

NOTE:

Reset status of a specific timestamp will force the removal of currently exposed VLUNs.

NOTE:

Use quotes ("") for names that include spaces.

NOTE:

When Recovery Manager is processing user requests, it will activate an internal locking

mechanism. Any incoming request will get “Server <system name> has a Recovery Manager
command running already” message. Wait until it finishes before continuing. However, in the case
of unexpected termination, the locking status may not get deactivated properly. Use this command
to release the lock for the operation to go back to normal status.

Examples

The following commands will reset the existing mount status to available.

RMExch reset -s bottlenosed -g sg2 -t 050106113456 -opt status

RMExch reset -s bottlenosed -g "First storage group" -t 050106113456

-opt status
