EVA Business Copy - Snapshot to different disk group
Can someone direct me to the documentation that describes how to direct the Snap to a different disk group?
We are running the version that supports snaps to different disk groups but I'm unable to get it to work.
Thanks!

Re: EVA Business Copy - Snapshot to different disk group
you can Snapclone to a different disk group. Not snapshot. When you are creating the Snapclone, you should be able to specify what disk group to use.

Re: EVA Business Copy - Snapshot to different disk group
I tried using:
Snap unit ....
Normalize Unit ....
Set Diskgroup....
But get validation errors. Our current demand allocated snaps are running fine using...
Snap unit...
Normalize Unit...
Mount Unit...
Thanks.

Re: EVA Business Copy - Snapshot to different disk group
it's been a while since I used Business Copy, so I'm probably a bit rusty. And the downloadable PDFs are not great. But I would guess using the "Snap" command is the problem. I'd say that Snap only creates snapshots. Look through the online help for the Snapclone command. It will create a completely new Vdisk and you should be able to specify the disk group.

Stephen

Re: EVA Business Copy - Snapshot to different disk group
Stephen is correct.
A snapshot is located within the Vdiskfamily.
A snapclone can be placed in another diskgroup, sp you should gp with the snapclone instead...

Re: EVA Business Copy - Snapshot to different disk group
The documentation isn't very informative.

Re: EVA Business Copy - Snapshot to different disk group
here is the sequence we use
set diskgroup (this is the diskgroup where you wnat the clones)
snap unit or device with type snapclone
more snaps possibly or wait for normalization
mount commands
the key is the set diskgroup before the snap clone command. There is no option I know of to set the diskgroup within the snap command , at least not in BC2.3.

Re: EVA Business Copy - Snapshot to different disk group
Imagine that. We got our EVA two weeks ago and have been creating scripts to just what you ask.
Attached is the HP Doc for the commands.
and a sample file for the following command:
/sbin/sssu "FILE bin/check_RI_fast01"
Best of luck.

dl

Re: EVA Business Copy - Snapshot to different disk group
Unfortunately, it looks like you are using HP-UX which is a little different when snapping to Windows.
I have, however, figured out my problem. The solution is as follows.
SET DISKGROUP XXX_SAN_1 "\Disk Groups\SNAP"
SNAP UNIT XXX_SAN_1 "\Virtual Disks\Server\virtual disk to snap\ACTIVE" $BCV1 SNAPCLONE_HSV
NORMALIZE UNIT XXX_SAN_1 "\Virtual Disks\virtual disk to snap\ACTIVE"
MOUNT UNIT SS $BCV1 server to present snap N/A N/A 1 Q: (drive letter to present as)
Thanks everyone for their input. I used information from everyone to figure it out.
