11.2.1.3 swstdevinfoset (Device information setting command)

NAME

swstdevinfoset - sets the device information


SYNOPSIS

To be executed on the Managed Server
<program-directory>\bin\swstdevinfoset -t | -b | -o Device-Name
To be executed on the Management Server
<program-directory>\bin\swstdevinfoset [-h Server-Name] -t | -b | -o Device-Name

DESCRIPTION

Set a volume that has been allocated to the ETERNUS Disk storage system, as a transaction or backup volume.

A transaction volume refers to a volume that stores transaction data to be backed up. A backup volume refers to a volume used to store a backup of this transaction data.

The following devices can be registered on Windows as transaction and backup volumes. Logical Units (disks) cannot be registered.

Only regular drives can be registered. No mirror set, stripe set, parity-protected stripe set, or volume set that can be recognized as FT (Fault Tolerant) drives can be registered. Additionally, the file system can be used is NTFS only.

You may want to change information (partition size, drive letter, and ETERNUS Disk storage system box information) on a device registered as a working or backup volume using an OS management tool such as Disk Management or a function such as ETERNUS Web GUI provided by the ETERNUS Disk storage system. However, if you do, you need to then deselect the target device from the work or backup volume and register it again.

If you add or delete a device (including disk array units and other general devices) on a Managed Server on Windows, use the "getting and reflecting information of all devices" option on the Web Console to update the relationship table between AdvancedCopy Manager device names and OS information.

If you want to perform the backup operation on a regular transaction volume, refer to "3.2.2 Selecting a backup source" for information on a transaction volume, and "3.2.4 Preparing a backup volume" for information on a backup volume.

"Backup" : Represents a backup volume.
"Other" : Represents a device that can be registered as a working or backup volume.

A backup volume is indicated as "Backup (used)" if it is being used or "Backup (free)" if it is not used. During the backup process with -suspend or -T option specified, the backup volume remains in use after history information is deleted.

When the -u option is specified, "Backup (used-S)" is displayed for a backup volume in the suspend status for which history information was deleted, or "Backup (used-T)" is displayed for a backup volume in the tracking status for which history information was deleted.
