Backup filesystems using Dataprotector and split mirror

augusto cossa — Wed, 01 Oct 2003 04:17:21 GMT

Hi,

The following command I'm using to split the mirror:
#lvsplit /dev/vg00/lvol1
#fsck /dev/vg00/lvol1b
#mount /dev/vg00/lvol1b /usr.backup

The mount command is having error. correct if possible.

How to backup for example the new /dev/vg00/lvol1b

After backup I thing the following command have to runn:

#umount /usr.backup
#lvmerge /dev/vg00/lvol1b /dev/vg00/lvol1

Help if something is wrong because I would like to incorporat this on DataProtector.

Regards,

A Cossa

What error are you getting from the mount command?

To backup, simply start a backup of /usr.backup.

Your commands for after backup are correct.

Hi,

The error for the mount point is:
mount: /usr.backup: no such file or directory.

Tks,

Exactly! Thanks, Jake, I got distracted with budget junk!

You need to make the directory before you can mount to it.
