Commands for SRDF control operations


Table 2 describes the four main commands of the Solutions Enabler SRDF component used to establish, maintain and monitor SRDF configurations.
Table 2 Command summary Command symrdf Description Performs the control operations on SRDF devices, such as: Establishes (mirrors) an SRDF pair by initiating a data copy from the source (R1) side to the target (R2) side. This operation can be a full or incremental establish. Restores remote mirroring. Initiates a data copy from the target (R2) side to the source (R1) side. This operation can be a full or incremental restore. Splits an SRDF pair, which stops mirroring for the SRDF pairs in a device group. Fails over and back from the source (R1) side to the target (R2) side, switching data processing to the target (R2) side. Updates the source (R1) side after a failover, while the target (R2) side may still be operational to its local host(s). Swaps the source (R1) and target (R2) destinations between the target and the source. Creates, deletes, or swaps dynamic SRDF device pairs. Performs dynamic SRDF group controls to add, modify, and remove dynamic groups. Enables link domino locally or remotely when creating dynamic groups. Enables auto link recovery locally or remotely when creating dynamic groups. Enables/disables consistency for SRDF/A capable devices operating in asynchronous mode that are managed by a device group or file. Invokes a replicate session that generates automated recurrent, background copies of the standard data following a path across SRDF links and cascading BCVs. You can start a replicate session, stop it, and restart the replicate session. This command is used for SRDF/Automated Replication. Uses concurrent and cascaded SRDF/Synchronous and SRDF/Asynchronous links to replicate source data synchronously to a nearby regional site and asynchronously to a distant remote site. Provides a session state monitoring tool that attempts to restart a group session if it enters the suspended or partitioned state. For more information See page 41 and the symrdf man page.
