NAME [Toc] [Back]
dgcfgbackup - create or update VxVM volume group configuration backup
file
SYNOPSIS [Toc] [Back]
/usr/sbin/dgcfgbackup [-f dg_conf_path ] dg_name
DESCRIPTION [Toc] [Back]
The dgcfgbackup command saves the VxVM configuration for a disk group
in a default or alternate configuration backup file (see the
description of the-f option).
By default, dgcfgbackup is run automatically each time that a VxVM
command changes the VxVM configuration. In this case, it always uses
the default configuration backup file. An existing default
configuration backup file is renamed with an extension of
Options and Arguments [Toc] [Back]
dg_name Specifies the name of a disk group.
-f dg_conf_path
Saves the configuration using an alternate file name
specified by dg_conf_path. If this option is omitted, the
default file name is /etc/vxvmconf/dg_name.conf.
EXIT CODES [Toc] [Back]
dgcfgbackup exits with a zero status on successful completion. An
non-zero exit status indicates that errors occurred when information
from the disk group was being accessed.
EXAMPLES [Toc] [Back]
Back up VxVM configuration information for disk group testdg in the
default backup file /etc/vxvmconf/testdg.conf:
dgcfgbackup testdg
Back up VxVM configuration information for disk group datadg in the
alternate configuration backup file /tmp/datadg.backup:
dgcfgbackup -f /tmp/datadg.backup datadg
NOTES [Toc] [Back]
It is recommended that any alternate configuration backup file be
created in the root file system (as is the case with the default path
name). This facilitates disk group recovery during maintenance mode,
such as after a system crash.
