HP P9000 Replication Manager Software 7.3.1-00 Application Agent CLI Reference Guide
Arguments
operation-ID
A character string that uniquely identifies the operation to be performed. Information in the operation
definition file linked to the specified operation ID is used when executing an extended command.
-mode cold
Specify this option to perform a cold backup of an Exchange database.
If you omit this option, a cold backup (-mode cold) is the default.
-mode online
Specify this option to perform an online backup of an Exchange database. If you specify this option,
you cannot also specify -transact_log_del, -c online, or -c offline.
If this option is used to perform an online backup of an Exchange database onto a secondary volume,
and you then want to perform a tape device backup of the Exchange database backup, you must
first verify the consistency of the database. To verify the consistency of an Exchange database, and
then back it up to a tape device, execute the EX_DRM_EXG_VERIFY command, followed by the
EX_DRM_TAPE_BACKUP command.
-mode vss
Specify this option to perform a backup of an Exchange database by using VSS. To use this option,
the Protection Manager service must be running on the backup server. If you specify this option, you
cannot also specify -c online or -c offline.
-transact_log_del
Specify this option to delete a committed transaction log file. By deleting the transaction log file, you
can increase the amount of unused drive capacity.
If you delete a transaction log file, you will no longer be able to use the -recovery option to restore
any previous backups. Specify this option when you want to restore data other than the most recent
backup data without specifying the -recovery option.
If you are using circular logging, this option is ignored. For details about circular logging, see the
Exchange Server documentation.
-noverify
Specify this option to skip consistency verification for a database that was backed up by using VSS.
-noverify_log_del
Specify this option to skip consistency verification for a database that was backed up by using VSS,
and then delete the transaction log file.
-c { offline | online }
Specify either of these options for a cluster environment. Specify -c offline to take a physical disk
cluster resource offline, and then back it up. Specify -c online to back up a physical disk cluster
resource while it is still online. The default -c option is -c offline. These options are ignored for
non-cluster environments.
-hostname virtual-server-name
Specify this option to designate an Exchange virtual server to back up. You can also use an operation
definition file to designate the server. If you use both an operation definition file and the -hostname
option, the server specified in the -hostname option will be given priority. Specify this option only
for cluster environments. This option is enabled only when you set SET_DRM_HOSTNAME to 1 in the
operation definition file; if you set SET_DRM_HOSTNAME to 0, this option is disabled.
