CHAPTER 8. SYSTEM BACKUP FOR DEFINITY G3r
The following operational rules apply to the
restore
command:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
The
restore
command will only be allowed to run if there are no other applications
currently using the MSS devices (E3).
The options entered by the user will be validated against the system configuration, and
the target devices for the restore command are determined (E11).
The disk must be in service (E13). The tape must be in service (E14).
If the user requests that the restore take place on the standby processor, the standby
processor must be in service, shadowing enabled, and refresh completed (E16).
If the file system of the tape is a core-dump file system, the command will be denied
(E17).
If the file system of the tape is an installation file system, the command will be denied
(E22). If the
incremental
option is specified and the file systems of the disk and tape
are not the same, the command will be denied (E23).
If errors are encountered in the operations described above, the restore operation should
not be attempted.
Error Conditions
The following is a list of all error messages displayed to the user. If any of these error conditions
can be attributed to hardware failures or disk/tape configuration problems, they will be logged
with the maintenance subsystem. Error messages that are caused by a user entering improper
command options are not logged with the maintenance subsystem; the user is notified of the
error.
For each error message listed, an identifier is provided which indicates where on the screen the
message will occur.
A failure can occur on either processor in a duplicated system. When the error is displayed, it is
associated with the processor on which the error was encountered.
E1
login:cha station 51001 has data locked
This error message is displayed for the
save translation
command when there is an
active
translation update
command.
E2 (M)
TTI activation or deactivation is in progress; this command is not
allowed at this time
When TTI activation or deactivation is in progress,
save translation
cannot occur.
The TTI activation or deactivation must be suspended first.
E3 (M)
'loginid':
"command" has cmd conflict
This message means that the user logged in with ‘Ioginid’ has a command that con-
flicts with the MSS command you are using.

No tape in tape drive
This message means that the tape cartridge is missing from the drive.
