NAME
swsrpshadowadm - displays or deletes a shadow copy
SYNOPSIS
program-directory\bin\swsrpshadowadm status
program-directory\bin\swsrpshadowadm delete (-id Snapshot-ID | -all)DESCRIPTION
This command allows a shadow copy to be managed.
This command is used on a backup server. This command is used only in the case where the user wants to delete a shadow copy, or to check a shadow copy status from a backup server because the Exchange server has stopped. It is not necessary to use this command to perform normal everyday backup.
The shadow copy state created by the ETERNUS disk storage systems provider is acquired and displayed from the VSS of a backup server.
The contents of a display are as follows.
Title | Description |
|---|---|
Original-Volume | The volume name of Windows of a source volume ("\\?\Volume{GUID}\"). The volume name of a meaning expressed with the form to say is displayed. |
Original-Machine | The machine name (computer name) in which reproducing agency volume exists is displayed. |
Replica-Volume | The volume name of Windows of a duplicate place ("\\?\Volume{GUID}\") A meaningful volume name is displayed. |
Latest-Creation-Time | The creation time of the newest shadow copy is displayed. |
Snapshot-ID | The shadow copy ID of the newest shadow copy (GUID) is displayed. |
SnapshotSet-ID | The shadow copy set ID of the newest shadow copy (GUID) is displayed. |
The shadow copy created by the ETERNUS disk storage systems provider is deleted from the VSS of a backup server.
Deletion of a shadow copy deletes all volumes (i.e., partitions) from a backup disk.
When the OPC physical copy is performed, the OPC physical copy is stopped by the ETERNUS disk storage systems provider. Synchronous processes and QuickOPCs do not stop even if shadow copies are deleted.
When Windows Server 2008 is combined with Exchange Server 2007, QuickOPC tracking processes are not stopped, even if shadow copies are deleted. If copying again to the same volume, use the "QuickOPC Tracking Stop Function" to stop tracking processes before copying.
Copy processes are also not stopped if the OPC physical copy is performed during shadow copy deletion. Even if copying to the same volume, the OPC physical copy does not need to be stopped.
OPTIONS
A shadow copy with the specified snapshot ID is deleted.
All the shadow copies created by the ETERNUS disk storage systems provider are deleted.
EXIT STATUS
=0:Completed successfully
>0:Terminated abnormally
