RSM Scripting

fh-djb — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 15:24:56 GMT

Greetings,
Does anyone have a script or procedure or a suggestion on how to use RMS to perform the following:

1. Create a Snapclone of a Vdisk once per week
2. Delete the Snapclone created from a week ago

At some point I'd like to take this a little further, if possible, with a different set of Vdisks and try to do the following:

1. Create a Mirrorclone of a Vdisk
2. Fracture the Mirror at x time
3. Present the fractured Vdisk (snapclone) to a host
4. After x time period unpresent the Vdisk from host
5. Re-establish the Mirrorclone

Does HP have any examples of RSM scripts? The RSM user guide lists, describes, and defines all the possible commands, but there is not a lot of information on how to pull the various commands together into one argument.

Thanks!

Yes. I'm using RSM 5.2. I've looked through the templates and I'm trying to use variables to set the storage volume and mirror volume. I can use the variable to do a ValidateStorageVolume ( $mirror_vol ) but when I try to use it in a fracture, it gives an error.

FractureMirrorclones ( $mirror_vol, WAIT )

Task Fracturemirrorclones started
Failed to validate argument $mirrorclone_unc_names for operation FractureMirrorClones. It is of incorrect type or the variable used has no value.

What am I missing? Any help would be appreciated.
