ETERNUS SF AdvancedCopy Manager V16.1 Operation Guide

8.1.7 Stopping Operation

Backup of the Exchange server databases can be stopped by performing the following steps:

• Delete the shadow copy

• Stop the copy process during execution

8.1.7.1 Deleting Shadow Copy

Delete the shadow copy by executing the swsrpshadowadm_exchange command on the Exchange server.

Example:

C:\>set SWSTGNODE=nodeAGT C:\>C:\Win32App\AdvancedCopyManager\bin\swsrpshadowadm_exchange delete -evs VSVR -sgname FirstStorageGroup-copygrp BK1 swsrpshadowadm_exchange delete successfully completed C:\>

Executing this command:

1. Deletes any shadow copy that exists on the backup server.

2. Deletes the backup server "writer metadata" documents and the "backup component" documents.

3. Makes the hardware provider stop the OPC physical copy if it is in progress.

8.1.7.2 Stopping Tracking Processing (Only for Differential Snapshot Type Backups)

To perform differential snapshot type backups, tracking processing must first be stopped.

Stop tracking processing by executing the swsrpshadowadm_exchange command on the Exchange server.

Example:

C:\>set SWSTGNODE=nodeAGT C:\>C:\Win32App\AdvancedCopyManager\bin\swsrpshadowadm_exchange stopqopc -evs VSVR -sgname FirstStorageGroup -copygrp BK1 swsrpshadowadm_exchange successfully completed C:\>

It is also possible to stop tracking processing by executing the eternus_stopcopy command at the command line.

8.1.7.3 Stopping Restoration Copies

Stop the restoration copy process by executing the swsrpcancel command on the Exchange server.

Example:

C:\>set SWSTGNODE=nodeAGT C:\> C:\Win32App\AdvancedCopyManager\bin\swsrpcancel g1d11p1@BKUP-SVR g1d2p1@EXCHG-SVR FROM=g1d3p1@BKUP-SVR, TO=g1d1p1@EXCHG-SVR swsrpcancel completed C:\>C:\Win32App\AdvancedCopyManager\bin\swsrpcancel g1d12p1@BKUP-SVR g1d2p1@EXCHG-SVR FROM=g1d4p1@BKUP-SVR, TO=g1d2p1@EXCHG-SVR swsrpcancel completed C:\>C:\Win32App\AdvancedCopyManager\bin\swsrpstat_exchange -sgname FirstStorageGroup Server Original-Volume Replica-Volume Direction Status Execute EXCHG-SVR g1d1p1@EXCHG-SVR g1d11p1@BKUP-SVR ---- ---- ---- EXCHG-SVR g1d2p1@EXCHG-SVR g1d12p1@BKUP-SVR ---- ---- ---- EXCHG-SVR g1d1p1@EXCHG-SVR g1d13p1@BKUP-SVR ---- ---- ---- EXCHG-SVR g1d2p1@EXCHG-SVR g1d14p1@BKUP-SVR ---- ---- ---- C:\>

When this command is executed, any restoration copy process in progress will be stopped.
It is generally not possible to use a transaction volume as a normal file system after restoration copy process has been stopped;
The transaction volumes must be reformatted so that they can be used again.
