Mounting /clone/prod_db on /dev/vx/dsk/SNAP_PRODdg/SNAP_prod_db.
Mounting /clone/prod_ar on /dev/vx/dsk/SNAP_PRODdg/SNAP_prod_ar.
All redo-log files found.
Database NEWPROD (SID=NEWPROD) is in recovery mode.
If the database NEWPROD is recovered manually, you must run
dbed_vmclonedb -o update_status to change the snapshot status.

The database is recovered manually using dbinitdb.
The database status (database_recovered) needs to be updated for a clone database on the
primary host after manual recovery has been completed.
$ /opt/VRTS/bin/dbed_vmclonedb -o update_status,new_sid=NEWPROD \
-f snap1 -r /clone

The snapshot status has been updated.

Example
In this example, file systems are mounted without recovering the clone database. The clone
database must be manually recovered before it can be used. This example is for a clone created on a
secondary host.
$ /opt/VRTS/bin/dbed_vmclonedb -S -g SNAP_PRODdg \
-o mountdb,new_sid=NEWPROD,vxdbavol=SNAP_arch -f snap2
dbed_vmclonedb started at 2004-04-09 23:26:50

Database NEWPROD (SID=NEWPROD) is in recovery mode.
If the database NEWPROD is recovered manually, you must run
dbed_vmclonedb -o update_status to change the snapshot status.
