- 3 Support and other resources

-sigview
Displays the disk signatures of the physical volumes. Use this option to restore operation when the
KAVX5137-E message is output and the restoration command terminates with an error.
• When a backup ID is specified with the -sigview option:
The disk signature recorded when the backup was made is displayed. You can use this to compare
the value of the current disk signature with the value at the time the backup was created.
• When both the -sigview option and -copy_group copy-group-name are specified at the
same time, or neither the backup ID for the -sigview option nor the -copy_group copy-
group-name is specified, only the current disk signature is displayed. The disk signature registered
at backup is displayed as --------.
The following table shows the items displayed when the -sigview option is specified.
Table 32 Items displayed by the drmdevctl -sigview command
DescriptionDisplayed item
When the backup ID is specified:
The name of the copy group to be backed up
When the copy group is specified:
The name of the specified copy group
When none is specified:
All copy groups
COPY_GROUP
The physical volume name corresponding to the copy groups.
Example: Harddisk0
UNKNOWN is shown when the physical volume is unable to be obtained
because the disk is concealed.
DEVICE
The partition style of the physical volume displayed on the DEVICE.
(One of MBR, GPT, RAW, or ---)
When UNKNOWN is displayed for DEVICE, --- is displayed.
TYPE
The current disk signature (in hexadecimal) of the physical volume
displayed for DEVICE.
When UNKNOWN is displayed for DEVICE, -------- is displayed.
CUR_DISKID
The disk signature recorded in the backup catalog (in hexadecimal).
When the disk signature is not set (for example, because backup was
performed in an environment of Protection Manager version 4.1 or
earlier), or when the backup ID is not specified, -------- is displayed.
BKU_DISKID
-sigset disk-signature
Updates the disk signature of the physical volume. Use this option to restore operation when the
KAVX5137-E message is output and the restoration command terminates with an error.
When you specify the -sigset option, you must specify either the backup ID or the -copy_group
copy-group-name at the same time.
• When the -sigset option and backup-ID are specified at the same time, the current disk sig-
nature is updated in accordance with the disk signature that was recorded at the time of backup.
You cannot specify an arbitrary disk signature.
