Storix System Backup Administrator - 27 - Version 8.2 Commands Reference
If the data list is not provided in the backup profile, you will need to specify it in the job
settings. The data list differs depending on the type of data to backup. The following is the list
of data types for each backup type:
Description Systems Data to Specify
Volume Group Linux/AIX Volume Group name(s)
Filesystem any mount point(s) (i.e. “/home /data”)
Logical volume Linux/AIX Logical volume name(s) (i.e. “lv00 lv01”)
Meta-disk Linux/Solaris Meta-disk names (i.e. “md0 md1”)
File/Directory any Directory names (i.e. “/home/sam ..”)
Partition Linux Raw partition names (i.e. “sda3 sdb5”)
ZFS Pool Solaris ZFS Pool name (i.e. “pool1”)
ZFS Volume Solaris ZFS Volume name (i.e. “pool1/vol1”)
Slice Solaris Disk slice name (i.e. “c0t0d0s1”)
Scheduling a job
The default is to configure a job to run on demand (--ondemand). If a job is to be run only
once, but at a specific time, or on a regular basis, specify the --later or --regularly options
respectively. You will then be required to add the –e schedule option, where schedule is a
cron-style entry in the following format:
Minute Hour DayOfMonth Month DayOfWeek
Each of the above fields are required and must be separated by a single space. You may
specify any number of options for each field, each separated by commas. For example:
0 17 * * 1,2,3,4,5
indicates that at 5:00 PM (minute 0 of hour 17) on every day of the month (*) of every month of
the year (*), the backup should run, but only on Monday through Friday (1,2,3,4,5).
Changing a job
If a job currently exists, you can change specific options by specifying only that option and its
new argument. For example, to turn on auto-verify for job “myjob1”, use the following
command:
stjob –aVy myjob1
or
stjob –a –verify myjob1
When changing a job, you may enter “none” to remove any previous values that do not require
an entry (i.e. “-D none”)
