This section provides information on the maintenance of a backup management list. A backup management list is maintained on the server that performs the backup.
Execute the swstresback command to back up a backup management list and a recovery control file created at the time of backing up the Symfoware database spaces.
Backup Data Size of Backup Management List
Check the size of the file that the subdirectory of the following directory contains.
<Environment directory>\etc\backup\dataIn the cluster environment, check the size of the file that the subdirectory of the following directory contains.
<shared disk>:\etc\opt\swstorage\etc\backup\dataFor backing up Symfoware databases, check the file sizes in the following directories:
Target directory for output of the recovery control file
Point
When you execute the swstresback command by using the same directory used before to save data, the file system in which these directories exist should be at least three times greater than the size returned in query above.
This is because the swstresback command executes backup in the state holding the data saved before.
Execute the swstresrst command to restore a backup management list and a recovery control file created at the time of backing up the Symfoware database spaces.
This section describes the maintenance of a replication management list.
To back up a replication management list, back up the repository of the Management Server. For information about backing up a repository, refer to "12.1.1.4.1 Backing up Database" of the Management Server.
Point
Operational information for replication management is saved in a repository.
It is recommended that a replication management list be backed up when operation information for replication management is changed with the swsrpsetvol or swsrpdelvol command.
Perform the following steps to restore a replication management list:
Restore the repository to the Management Server. For information about restoring a repository, refer to "12.1.1.4.2 Restoring Database" of the Management Server.
On the Managed Server, execute the swsrprecoverres command with the -r option.
Point
When above 2 steps are performed, operational information for replication management of a repository is copied to a Managed Server, where it is then available for use.
When this information for replication management in the repository does not need to be changed, and only the operation information for replication management on the Managed Server is incorrect (for some reason), perform only step 2.
This section explains maintenance methods for the VSS backup management list that is used in the Hyper-V backup function.
Perform them on servers that are using Hyper-V's VSS backup function (Hyper-V host and backup servers).
Make sure that no commands of the Hyper-V backup function are being executed, and perform the backup and restore of the VSS backup management list manually.
For backing up the VSS backup management list, copy the files that are in below directory to any other directory as needed.
<Environment directory>\etc\repl\data\vrqFor restoring the VSS backup management list, copy the files that you copied according to "12.1.1.3.1 Backing Up VSS Backup Management List" back to below directory.
<Environment directory>\etc\repl\data\vrqThis section describes the maintenance of a database used by a Management Server.
Backup Data Size of Database
Calculate the size using the following formula:
60 + (number of devices to be managed x 0.001) megabytes |
Note
Do not use Telnet server service, as it will not work properly.
When the Management Server is in cluster operation, you should prepare directories into which data is saved on shared disks.
Refer to "12.7.2.1 Backup of Common Control and AdvancedCopy Manager Repository" to back up the ETERNUS SF Manager database.
Note
Do not use Telnet server service, as it will not work properly.
When the Management Server is in cluster operation, note the following points:
When carrying out this process, please first make sure that it is possible to use the shared disk for the AdvancedCopy Manager repository and the shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager shared data.
Refer to "12.7.2.2 Restore of Common Control and AdvancedCopy Manager Repository" to restore the ETERNUS SF Manager database.
This section describes the maintenance of a registry. Perform this procedure on a Management Server or a Managed Server.
In a command prompt window, back up the following files using the copy command, etc.
<Environment directory>\etc\swnode.ini <Environment directory>\etc\device.ini
<Drive letter of the shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager share data>:\etc\opt\swstorage\etc\swnode.ini <Drive letter of the shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager share data>:\etc\opt\swstorage\etc\device.ini
Back up the registry to the backup directory on hard drive D. This example assumes that AdvancedCopy Manager has been installed at C:\ETERNUS_SF.
C:\>copy C:\ETERNUS_SF\ACM\etc\swnode.ini D:\backup\ C:\>copy C:\ETERNUS_SF\ACM\etc\device.ini D:\backup\ |
Backup Data Size of Registry
Check the size of the file to be backed up.
In a command prompt window, use the copy command or another method to restore the following files.
<Environment directory>\etc\swnode.ini <Environment directory>\etc\device.ini
<Drive letter of the shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager share data>:\etc\opt\swstorage\etc\swnode.ini <Drive letter of the shared disk for AdvancedCopy Manager share data>:\etc\opt\swstorage\etc\device.ini
Restore files saved to the \backup directory in D drive.
C:\>copy D:\backup\swnode.ini C:\ETERNUS_SF\ACM\etc\ C:\>copy D:\backup\device.ini C:\ETERNUS_SF\ACM\etc\ |
This section describes the maintenance of Symfoware database information file.
Back up Symfoware database information file used for Symfoware backup server operation.
For backing up Symfoware database information file, copy the files that are in below directory to any other directory as needed.
In case of normal operation (non-clustered environment)
<Environment directory>\etc\repl\data\DEFAULT\symfoIn case of operation in clustered environment
<Environment directory for logical node>\etc\repl\data\DEFAULT\symfo
Restore Symfoware database information file used for Symfoware backup server operation.
Copy the file backed up in "12.1.1.6.1 Backing Up Symfoware Database Information File" into the following directories:
In case of normal operation (non-clustered environment)
<Environment directory>\etc\repl\data\DEFAULT\symfoIn case of operation in clustered environment
<Environment directory for logical node>\etc\repl\data\DEFAULT\symfo
This section describes the maintenance of a target directory for output of the recovery control file.
Back up a target directory for output of the recovery control file that is used for Symfoware backup server operation.
In the target directory for output of the recovery control file are stored a recovery control file and a backup history file that are created at backup time.
Copy the files in the target directory for output of the recovery control file into any directory.
In case of normal operation (non-clustered environment)
<Environment directory>\etc\SymfoWARE\RepIn case of operation in clustered environment
<Environment directory for logical node>\etc\SymfoWARE\Rep
Restore a target directory for output of the recovery control file that is used for Symfoware backup server operation.
Copy the file backed up in "12.1.1.7.1 Backing Up Target Directory for Output of Recovery Control File" into the target directory for output for output of the recovery control file.
In case of normal operation (non-clustered environment)
<Environment directory>\etc\SymfoWARE\RepIn case of operation in clustered environment
<Environment directory for logical node>\etc\SymfoWARE\Rep
