Examples
• In this example, the command conceals the secondary volumes of all copy groups, and performs
a drive rescan:
PROMPT> drmdevctl -detach
• In this example, the command conceals the secondary volumes of the copy groups registered in
the backup catalog, and performs a drive rescan:
PROMPT> drmdevctl 0000000002 -detach
• In this example, the command is used to execute multiple conceal operations for the secondary
volumes of copy groups, and to perform a drive rescan at the end:
PROMPT> drmdevctl -copy_group G1,d1 -detach -noscan
PROMPT> drmdevctl -copy_group G1,d2 -detach -noscan
PROMPT> drmdevctl -copy_group G1,d3 -detach -noscan
PROMPT> drmdevctl -rescan
• In this example, the command is used to reveal (publish) the secondary volumes of all copy groups,
and to perform a drive rescan:
PROMPT> drmdevctl -attach
• In this example, the command is used to reveal (publish) the secondary volumes of the copy groups
registered in the backup catalog, and to perform a drive rescan:
PROMPT> drmdevctl 0000000002 -attach
• In this example, the command is used to execute multiple reveal (publish) operations for the sec-
ondary volumes of copy groups, and to perform a drive rescan at the end:
PROMPT> drmdevctl -copy_group G1,d1 -attach -noscan
PROMPT> drmdevctl -copy_group G1,d2 -attach -noscan
PROMPT> drmdevctl -copy_group G1,d3 -attach -noscan
PROMPT> drmdevctl -rescan
• In this example, the command is used to display the current disk signatures of the local volumes
for all copy groups:
PROMPT> drmdevctl -sigview
COPY_GROUP DEVICE TYPE CUR_DISKID BKU_DISKID
VG01,dev01 Harddisk10 MBR ABCDEF01 --------
VG01,dev02 Harddisk11 MBR ABCDEF02 --------
VG01,dev03 UNKNOWN --- -------- --------
VG02,dev11 Harddisk12 GPT
ABCDEF01-2345-6789-ABCD-EF0123456701 --------
VG02,dev12 Harddisk13 GPT
ABCDEF01-2345-6789-ABCD-EF0123456702 --------
VG02,dev13 UNKOWN --- -------- --------
• In this example, the command is used to display the current disk signature of the local volume,
and, for the copy group recorded in the backup catalog that corresponds to the backup ID
0000000002, the disk signature at the time of backup:
