6.5 Backing Up and Restoring through Disk Unit's Copy Functions

Some sophisticated disk devices contain hardware functions to copy disk data within the disk units or to other disk units. For example, Fujitsu Storage Systems ETERNUS provide the Advanced Copy function and EMC's Symmetrix storage systems provide copy functions such as TimeFinder and SRDF.

This section describes the procedures for backing up and restoring object configurations and data of local disks and shared disks through use of these disk units' copy functions.

Backup and restore can be performed on any of the following nodes.

In the following subsections, physical disks named c1t1d1 and c2t1d1 are registered with a shared class named Class1 and mirrored, and a mirror volume named Volume1 is used for services.
