EVA MirrorClone Question

Steve Hart — Tue, 11 Mar 2014 05:42:48 GMT

Does any one know if its possible to restore from a EVA MirrorClone using the SSSU command line.

The simular command on a XP would be
pairresync -c 15 -g Group -restore

If so any pointers as to what commands would be helpful.

Many Thanks
Steve

The SSSU manual says:

> SET VDISK virtual_disk_name

RESTORE

Restores data from the mirrorclone or snapshot to the source virtual disk. Data on the source virtual disk is overwritten even if the source virtual disk is write-protected. Only unpresented mirrorclones and snapshots are eligible for restoration. A mirrorclone cannot be restored if the mirrorclone source
is a DR group member.

Uwe,

Is virtual_disk_name the name for the original vdisk or the name of the Mirror Clone Vdisk

Cheers
Steve

I have managed to work it out, the guide is not very useful at all.

SET VDISK "name of vdisk" RESTORE SOURCE_VDISK="name of mirrorclone"

Good to hear you got it working.

I agree there is a lot of room for improvement (examples!, examples!), but at least it gives _some_ help.
