--auto_recover_DR
|
Recover the MSDP catalog from the most recent backup
image. This option automatically recovers the catalog and performs all of the actions necessary to return MSDP to full functionality.
This option requires the --policy policy_name
option.
To recover the catalog from a backup other than the most recent, contact your Veritas Support representative.
|
|
--client host_name
|
The client to back up (that is, the host name of the MSDP storage server).
Default: the value that bpgetconfig CLIENT_NAME returns.
|
|
--cleanup
|
Remove all of the old MSDP catalog directories during the catalog recovery process. Those directories are renamed during the recovery.
|
|
--delete_old_files_for_cloud_catalyst
|
Deletes the existing deduplication catalog files before restoring them from the last backup in the recover_last_image step. Used for a cloud media server after the file system has been recovered in the recover_last_cloud_catalyst_image step.
|
|
--disk_pool
|
In a NetBackup Cloud Catalyst recovery scenario, you must specify the disk pool name that is configured for the cloud storage server. This option is required for auto_recover_DR when the disk pool name cannot be determined from the host name. For example, for a cloud storage server that is configured for Cloud Catalyst.
|
|
--dsid
|
The data selection ID is the catalog directory for one of the NetBackup domains.
In a multi-domain scenario when you recover the catalog from another domain, the dsid of the other NetBackup domain is used. To obtain the dsid of the other NetBackup domain, run the spauser command to list the dsid.
The default value is 2.
|
|
--hardware machine_type
|
The hardware type or the computer type for the host.
Spaces are not allowed. If the string contains special characters, enclose it in double quotation marks (").
Default: Unknown.
|
|
--initialize_DR
|
Performs the following actions to prepare for MSDP catalog recovery: Verifies that the most recent catalog backup is valid. Stops the deduplication services. Moves the existing catalog files so that they are empty for the recovery.
|
|
--list_files
|
List the files in the most recent MSDP catalog backup.
This option requires the --policy policy_name
option.
|
|
--log_file pathname
|
The pathname for the log file that the drcontrol utility creates. By default, the utility writes log files to /storage_path/log/drcontrol/.
|
|
--NB_install_dir install_directory
|
Windows only. Required option if NetBackup was installed in a location other than the default (C:\Program Files\&CompanyNameShort;).
If the string contains spaces or special characters, enclose it in double quotation marks ("). Do not use a trailing backslash in the install_directory string.
|
|
--new_policy
|
Create a new policy to protect the deduplication catalog on this host. If a policy with the given name exists already, the command fails.
To ensure that NetBackup activates the policy, you must specify the --residence residence
option. |
|
--OS operating_system
|
The operating system for the host.
Spaces are not allowed. If the string contains special characters, enclose it in double quotation marks (").
Default: UNIX/Linux or MS-Windows.
|
|
--policy policy_name
|
The name for the backup policy.
Required with --auto_recover_DR and --update_policy; optional with --new_policy.
Default: Dedupe_Catalog_shorthostname
|
|
--print_space_required
|
Display an estimate of the percentage of file system space that is required to recover the MSDP catalog.
|
|
--recover_last_cloud_catalyst_image
|
Use bprestore to restore the cloud media server-related contents of the last deduplication catalog backup. This operation requires that disaster recovery be initialized.
|
|
--recover_last_image
|
Restore the MSDP catalog from the last set of backup images (that is, the last full plus all subsequent incrementals). The drcontrol utility calls the NetBackup bprestore command for the restore operation.
|
|
--refresh_shadow_catalog
|
Deletes all existing shadow catalog copies and creates a new catalog shadow copy.
|
|
--residence residence
|
The name of the storage unit on which to store the MSDP catalog backups.
Do not use the as the destination for the catalog backups. Recovery of the MSDP catalog from its is impossible.
Veritas recommends that you use a storage unit that is attached to a NetBackup host other than the MSDP storage server.
|
|
--update_policy
|
Update a policy, as follows: If the client name (of this media server) is not in the policy's client list, add the client name to the policy's client list. If you specify the --OS or --hardware options, replace the values currently in the policy with the new values. Update the backup selection based on the locations of the MSDP storage directories and configuration files. Therefore, if you modify any of the following, you must use this option to update the catalog backup policy:
This option fails if there is no policy with the given policy name. It also fails if the existing policy type is incompatible with the operating system of the host on which you run the command.
This option requires the --policy policy_name
option.
|
|
--verbose
|
Echo all drcontrol log statements to stdout.
