HP 3PAR InForm OS 3.1.1 Command Line Interface Reference

Changes secondary volume groups to primary volume groups on the active system in the event of
a server failure. If the group has multiple targets it will also attempt to pull more recent data from
other targets and start Remote Copy to those targets when complete.
recover
Used for groups on which the failover operation has already been run. Changes matching primary
volume groups on the backup system to secondary volume groups and then starts and synchronizes
all groups.
restore
Used on groups on which the recover operation has already been run. Returns all groups to their
natural direction and starts them.
OPTIONS
–t
Specifies that the setrcopygroup <dr_operations> command be applied to all relevant
groups of the indicated target. If no group names are specified then all groups in that target that
are in the correct state for the specified subcommand will have it applied to them. For groups with
multiple targets this option must be specified for the recover, restore, reverse and pol
subcommands.
-f
Does not ask for confirmation for disaster recovery commands.
–nostart
Specifies that groups are not started after role reversal is completed. This option can be used for
failover, recover and restore subcommands.
–nosync
Specifies that groups are not synchronized after role reversal is completed through the recover,
restore and failover specifiers.
-discard
Specifies not to check a group's other targets to see if newer data should be pushed from them if
the group has multiple targets. The use of this option can result in the loss of the most recent changes
to the group's volumes and thus should be used carefully. This option is only valid for the failover
subcommand.
–nopromote
This option is only valid for the failover and reverse specifiers. When used with the reverse specifier
it indicates that the synchronized snapshots of groups that are switched from primary to secondary
not be promoted to the base volume. When used with the failover specifier it indicates that snapshots
of groups that are switched from secondary to primary should not be promoted to the base volume
in the case where all volumes of the group were synced to the same time point. The incorrect use
of this option can lead to the primary and secondary volumes not being consistent.
–nosnap
Specifies that snapshots are not taken of groups that are switched from secondary to primary.
Additionally, existing snapshots are not deleted if groups are switched from primary to secondary.
The use of this option may result in a full synchronization of the secondary volumes. This option
can be used for failover and reverse subcommand.
–stopgroups
Specifies that groups are stopped before running the reverse subcommand.
–local
When issuing the command with the reverse specifier, only the group’s direction is changed on
the system where the command is issued.
