NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       fs_restore_config  -  Restores  an AdvFS domain configuration.

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

        #include <stocfg/fs_config.h>

         int    fs_restore_config(              char     *config,
                 char   *remap,             char   **undo_script,
                 char **err_buf,
            int  ignoreMntPoints);

       );

LIBRARY    [Toc]    [Back]

       File System and Storage Configuration Library libstocfg

PARAMETERS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Points to a domain configuration description expressed  in
       XML format.  See fs_save_config for how to save a configuration
 and see fs_config_data for the definition  of  configuration
 data.  Points to configuration remapping information
 described in the XML format.  See fs_config_data to
       specify configuration remapping data.  Points to a pointer
       to a location in which the  function  stores  a  character
       buffer containing a set of command line operations to undo
       the results of this function.  Points to a  pointer  to  a
       location  in  which  the function stores an error message.
       Causes the restore function to ignore  processing  of  the
       mount  point  information.   Directories  are not created;
       filesets are not mounted; and the /etc/fstab file  is  not
       updated. Set =1 to ignore mount points.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The fs_restore_config function recreates the configuration
       of an AdvFS domain by remapping it on cloned  disks.   You
       can  capture the configuration by using the fs_save_config
       function and restore it on the same host or on a different
       host.

       You must provide this function with the remapping of original
 disks to cloned  disks.   The  configuration  objects
       that  you  can  rename are specified in the remapping DTD.
       See fs_config_data for more information.  Remapping information
 must  be specified in XML markup.

       See fs_config_data for a sample remapping DTD.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  calling  function  is  responsible for freeing memory
       allocated for the  undo script and the error message.

RESTRICTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       You must be the root user to execute this function.

       If LSM volumes are used by the AdvFS  domain,  the  target
       system  must have LSM setup, and volclonedg must be available.


       All volclonedg restrictions apply to this function.


RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       Returns a value of  0  (zero)  on  successful  completion.
       Returns a value of -1 on failure and sets the error buffer
       to point to an error message.

ERRORS    [Toc]    [Back]

       The following are some error messages along with suggested
       solutions:

       Root user permissions required - login in as root user

       Empty configuration list - verify the file path/name

       Failed parsing config data - verify the configuration definition


       Unable to rename fileset - make sure the new and old fileset
 names are correct

       /etc/fstab currently has an entry for fileset - remove the
       existing file system's entry from /etc/fstab file to avoid
       conflicts

       File  of  same name as new mount point exists -  specify a
       different new mount point for the fileset

       LSM daemon (vold) is not running - initialize LSM if it is
       not already setup

       Unable  to  restore  LSM  config info - make sure that the
       volclonedg command is available on the  system,  and  that
       all  original  disk group disks and new ones are correctly
       specified in the remapping file

       The following error messages  may  be  returned  in  local
       restore mode only:

       New mount point is required in local restore - add definition
 of new mount point for the fileset in the remap file

       New volume names are required in local restore - add definition
  of  new  AdvFS  volume for the domain in the remap
       file

       The names of cloned disks are missing - add definition  of
       new disk group disk for the disk group in the remap file

       See /usr/lib/nls/msg/$LANG/stocfg.cat for a complete listing
 of error messages.

EXAMPLES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The following example shows the restoration  of  an  AdvFS
       domain.  #include <stdio.h> #include <stocfg/fs_config.h>

       main(int argc, char **argv) {

        int status;
        int size;
        int ignoreMntPoints;
        char *undo;
        char *ebuf;
        char *config;
        char *remap;
        FILE *fp_config,*fp_remap, *fopen();

        int fs_restore_config(char *config, char *remap,
                              char **undoScript,
                              char **errBuf,
                              int ignoreMntPoints);

        if(argc < 2)
        {
           printf("Usage: %s [<-i>] <config_file>
                    <remap_file>\n",*argv);
           printf(" -i            ignore mount points\n");
           printf(" config_file   XML data from
                    previous fs_save_config()\n");
           printf(" remap_file    XML data remapping file\n");
           exit(0);
        }


        if(strcmp(*(argv + 1),"-i") == 0)
        {
           ignoreMntPoints = 1;
           ++argv;
        }
        else
        {
           ignoreMntPoints = 0;
        }
        config = (buffer containing configuration information)
        remap = (buffer containing remapping information)
        undo = NULL;
        ebuf = NULL;
        status = fs_restore_config(config,remap,&undo,&ebuf,
               ignoreMntPoints);
        if(status)
        {
           printf("fs_restore_config failed:
                 status = %d\n",status);
           printf("ebuf = %s\n",ebuf);
           fflush(stdout);
        }
        if(undo != NULL)
            printf("\n%s\n",undo);

       }
