mount /unmount EVA snapshots on windows 2000/2003
i'm trying to present snapshots taken on an EVA 5000 array of windows vdisks to a windows 2000 or 2003 (with secure path 4.0C sp2.1)server for backup purpose.

You can find the required documentation in the Secure path CD which is deliverd to you.
F.Y.I
The file name is
hp StorageWorks
Secure Path V4.0C for Windows
and Windows Workgroup Edition

Create a .bat file containing the following:
diskpart.exe /s diskdel.txt >diskdel.log
timeout /t 5
sssu.exe file snapdel.txt
The above needs 2 'input' files in the same location:
1) Diskdel.txt (where 4 and z is specific to your server configuration)
select volume 4
remove letter=z
delete volume
exit
2) Snapdel.txt
select manager smaname username=administrator password=xxx
select system evaname
delete lun "\Hosts\servername\servername\lunnumber"
delete vdisk "\Virtual Disks\servername\vdiskname\ACTIVE" wait_for_completion
exit
Even using the above SecurePath will log a few errors in the event log, but this should do the trick as best as possible.
Good luck.

Re: mount /unmount EVA snapshots on windows 2000/2003
no way to clean up the secure path configuration without reboot !!!
it seems to be supported with MPIO !!!
BC agent seems to use an utilitie which is capable of rescaning the secure path configuration after adding or removing a lun but i have'nt found yet which one !!
steel investigate

Re: mount /unmount EVA snapshots on windows 2000/2003
So the solution is using MPIO instead, which purge it's configuration after any lun is unpresented
Thanx to all for the help.
