HP StorageWorks P9000 Replication Manager Software 7.1.1 CLI Reference Guide (TB584-96028, September 2011)
-raw
Specify this option when you want to back up the secondary volume as a raw device. When this
extended command backs up the secondary volume as a raw device, the command does not mount
the secondary volume and performs a backup for each logical volume.
When this option is omitted, the extended command backs up the secondary volume as a file system
(or a database).
-force
Specify this option to forcibly mount the secondary volume. If you specify this option and the copy
group name of the primary volume obtained during backup processing on the file server (or the
database server) matches the file server (or the database server) information, the extended command
forcibly mounts the secondary volume, even if the LDEV or SERIAL numbers do not match.
If you omit this option, the extended command terminates with an error without mounting if the following
condition also holds: the copy group name, LDEV number, and SERIAL number of the primary volume,
which were obtained when the file server or database server was backed up, do not match the
information on the file server or database server.
Specify this option when you need to forcibly mount a secondary volume using only the copy group
name of the primary volume as a key. Examples include cases when the secondary volume is to be
replaced because of a failure or other reason, or when an LDEV number or SERIAL number was
changed. Data might be lost if you specify this option for a normal backup operation.
-bup_env configuration-definition-file-name
Specify this option if you want to use a startup parameter in a user-created configuration definition
file when backing up to or restoring from a tape device.
If you omit this option, the default configuration definition file is used. As such, you will need to create
the default configuration definition file in advance.
Create the configuration definition file in the same directory as the default configuration definition
file. For further information, see the description of configuration definition file creation in the HP
StorageWorks P9000 Replication Manager Software Application Agent CLI User Guide.
The specified configuration definition file name must fulfill the following requirements:
Maximum number of characters (total length of the directory name and file name): 255 bytes
Available characters: Characters that can be used for file names in Windows
Return Values
0: Normal termination
Any value other than 0: Termination with an error
