Parameters
Parameter Description
sourceLocation
This parameter specifies the location from which
to obtain backup database information.
• disk indicates that data comes directly from
the database on the physical disk
• cache indicates that data comes from the RPA
memory location
The default location is disk.
controller
This parameter specifies the RAID controller
module from which data will be exclusively
retrieved, if sourceLocation is set to onboard. If
the controller parameter is not specified, data
might be retrieved from either RAID controller
modules. Valid RAID controller module identifiers
are
0 or 1, where 0 is the RAID controller module
in slot 0, and 1 is the RAID controller module in
slot 1.
file
The file path and the file name to which you want
to save the database. Enclose the file name in
double quotation marks (" "). For example:
file="C:\Program Files\CLI\logs
\events.txt".
This parameter must appear last, after any of the
optional parameters.
This command does not automatically append a
file extension to the saved file. You must specify a
file extension when entering the file name.
Notes
The data that you save to the host using this command can, if needed, be restored to the RAID controller
module. A validator, however, is required to restore data from the file on the host.
