-copy_group copy-group-name
Specifies the name of the copy group to be mounted. You must clear the system cache before backing
up data. When doing so, specify a copy group from the backup server and mount the secondary
volume. Then, when you unmount the secondary volume with the EX_DRM_UMOUNT command, the
system cache is cleared.
In a Veritas Storage Foundation environment, specifying the -copy_group option in a dynamic disk
configuration requires the creation of a copy group mount definition file in advance.
-mount_pt mount-point-directory-name
Specifies the name of the mount point directory on which the secondary volume is to be mounted.
Specify the mount-point-directory-name parameter as an absolute path.
Specify a mount point directory name with a drive letter, or as an absolute path beginning with a
drive letter.
The conditions for specifying a mount point directory name are as follows:
• Maximum number of characters: Path lengths to be specified must comply with the specifications
of the mount and unmount functions provided by RAID Manager.
• Available characters: Characters that can be used in a directory name in Windows (excluding
space characters)
If you specify a drive letter as the mount point directory name, the EX_DRM_MOUNT command searches
for unused drives in alphabetical order using the specified drive as a base point, and mounts the
appropriate secondary volume.
If you specify an absolute path beginning with a drive letter as the mount point directory name, and
then specify a copy group name, the EX_DRM_MOUNT command mounts the secondary volume
corresponding to the specified absolute path.
Even if the absolute path does not end with a backslash (\), the command assumes that a backslash
has been specified. For example, D: is assumed to be the same drive as D:\. Similarly, D:\MOUNTDIR
is assumed to be the same directory as D:\MOUNTDIR\.
If you omit this option, the following mount point is used:
drive-not-used-when-the-EX_DRM_MOUNT-command-is-executed
-force
Specify this option when you want to forcibly mount the secondary volume. If the specified backup
ID matches the copy group name of the mount volume, the command forcibly mounts the secondary
volume even if the LDEV number or DKC serial number of the secondary volume does not match.
NOTE:
If you specify the -force option, data might be corrupted, because the command mounts the
secondary volume without checking the LDEV number and DKC serial number.
-conf
Specify this option to extract copy group mount definition information from the mounted secondary
volume to create or update the copy group mount definition file. In a Veritas Storage Foundation
environment, the copy group mount definition file must have already been created to mount a secondary
volume and perform a tape device backup or restoration in a dynamic disk configuration.
This option must be specified with the operation ID.
The created copy group mount definition file name is shown below:
