4.9 Selecting logical volumes and MD devices for backup
Let's assume that the system has four physical disks: Disk 1, Disk 2, Disk 3 and Disk 4.
A RAID-1 volume is configured on two basic volumes: sdb1, sdd1
A logical volume is configured on two basic volumes: sdb2, sdd2
Disk 3 is empty.
A list of volumes can be obtained by using the following command:
acrocmd list disks
Num Partition Flags Start Size Type GUID
----------- ----------- -------- ---------- ---------- -------- -----------
Disk 1 16,384 MB PS_MBR
1-1 sda1 Pri,Act 0.031 MB 203.9 MB Ext 2

Dynamic volumes:
1 Dyn1 MyVG-MyLV 0 MB 4,096 MB Ext 3 A5C349F8...
1 Dyn2 md0 0 MB 2,055 MB Ext 2 FFF5E076...
The logical volume, DYN1, occupies basic volumes 2-2 and 4-2 (which are not shown by the above
command). The RAID-1 volume, DYN2, occupies basic volumes 2-1 and 4-1 (which are not shown by
the above command either).
To back up the logical DYN1 volume, run the following command (here, the name of the backup is
assumed to be my_archive and its location to be /home/user):
acrocmd backup disk --volume=DYN1 --loc=/home/user --arc=my_archive
