Replicate host volumes via preallocated replication, mount to a host (template)

Template summary
A. Disables (flushes) the write cache of the storage volumes that underlie a host volume on an
enabled host.
B. Locally replicates (copies) the storage volumes that underlie the host volume to containers.
C.
Re-enables the write cache of the source storage volumes that underlie the host volume.
D.
Waits for the container copies to become storage volume copies and be discovered.
E. Presents the underlying storage volume copies to a second enabled host (creates a new host
volume group).
F. Mounts the new host volume on the second enabled host.
G. Pauses the job.
H. After continuing, unmounts the new host volume from the second enabled host, unpresents and
deletes the storage volume copies from the storage system.
I.
Converts the storage volume copies back into containers.
NOTE:
This template cannot be used with some older versions of controller software.
Template options
• Number of volumes to replicate. Adds commands for each volume.
• Suspend source before replication. Adds launch commands for interacting with an enabled host,
for example to suspend and resume host application I/O.
• Launch backup after replication. Adds a launch command for interacting with an enabled host,
for example, to start a tape backup.
• Use snapclone instead of snapshot. Generates a template that uses preallocated snapclone
replication.
• Include e-mail notification. Adds a command for e-mail notification of the job instance status.
See SetNotificationPolicy.
Comments
• This template cannot be used with some older versions of controller software.
• Tru64 UNIX. When replicating AdvFS volumes that have heavy I/O, select the option Suspend
source before replication.
Example
This template was generated to replicate one host volume. No other template options were selected.
