NAME
drd activate - after using the drd commands to create and optionally modify a clone, this command
invokes setboot (1M) to set the primary boot path to the clone. Once the clone is booted, using drd
activate will invoke setboot(1M) to set the primary boot path to the original system image. This command
will always set the primary boot path to the inactive (not booted) system image.
SYNOPSIS
drd activate
[-?][-p][-q][-v
][-x option=value][-x -?
][-X option_file]
DESCRIPTION
The
drd activate command invokes the setboot (1M) command to set the primary boot disk to the
inactive system image. If a clone has just been created, the inactive system image is the target of the
clone operation. If the clone has been booted, the inactive system image is the original system that was
cloned.
Note: Running
drd activate
multiple times with no intervening boot has the same effect as running
it once. To "undo"
drd activate, use drd deactivate.
Options
drd activate
recognizes the following options:
-? Displays the usage message.
-p Sets preview mode.
-q Decreases the verbosity level by one each time it is specified. For example,
-qq will reduce the
verbosity from the default value of 4 to 2. If both
-x verbosity=5 and -qqq
are included on
the command line, the effective verbosity is 2. The minimum verbosity level is 0. (See also the
-x verbosity option).
-v Increases the verbosity level by one each time it is specified. For example,
-v will increase the
effective verbosity from the default value of 4 to 5. If both
-x verbosity=1 and
-vv are
included on the command line, the effective verbosity is 3. The maximum verbosity level is 5.
(See also the
-x verbosity option).
-x -? Displays the list of possible -x (extended) options.
-x option=value
Sets the extended option to a value. See Extended -x Options definitions below.
-X option_file
Gets the extended options from a file.
Extended -x Options
drd activate recognizes the following -x
(extended) options:
-x alternate_bootdisk=
Usage: Basic
This is the alternate boot disk. The alternate boot disk must be specified as a block device file.
-x HA_alternate_bootdisk=
Usage: Basic
This is the High Availability alternate boot disk. The High Availability alternate boot disk must be
specified as a block device file. High Availability alternate boot disk is supported only on
Itanium-based architecture and for PA-RISC systems that support hardware partitions.
-x logfile=/var/opt/drd/drd.log
Usage: Basic
This is the path to the log file for this command. Each time DRD is run, this file will grow larger.
This can be changed, for example, to a month-specific location for easier archiving, off-host backup,
and rotation.
-x log_verbosity=4
Usage: Basic
Specifies the level of message verbosity in the log file (See also -x verbosity). Legal values are:
0 Only ERROR messages and the starting/ending BANNER messages.
1 Adds WARNING messages.
