4. Lock secondary volume 1.
To keep the backup data (generation 1), lock the copy group (generation 1) by executing the
drmcgctl command with the -mode lock option specified. You can specify the item to be
locked by backup ID or copy group.
At this point, execute the drmcgctl command, specifying 0000000004 as the backup ID.
DBServer > drmcgctl -backup_id 0000000004 -mode lock
KAVX0001-I The drmcgctl command will now start.
KAVX0302-I The copy group(s) associated with the specified backup ID were locked.
KAVX0002-I The drmcgctl command will now end.
Note that the lock is only valid for the server on which it was performed. For a multiple server
configuration, perform locking appropriate to the operation.
5. Checking the secondary volume status.
Display the list of copy groups, and check the status of the locked copy group.
DBServer > drmcgctl
COPY GROUP LOCK STATUS BACKUP-ID
VG01,VOL11 LOCKED 0000000004
VG01,VOL12 LOCKED 0000000004
VG01,VOL13 LOCKED 0000000004
VG02,VOL21 UNLOCKED 0000000002
VG02,VOL22 UNLOCKED 0000000002
VG02,VOL23 UNLOCKED 0000000002
VG03,VOL31 UNLOCKED 0000000003
VG03,VOL32 UNLOCKED 0000000003
VG03,VOL33 UNLOCKED 0000000003
DBServer >
Copy groups for which LOCKED is displayed in the LOCK STATUS column are locked.
When the copy group (generation 1) is locked, all subsequent backups are obtained using
secondary volume 2 and secondary volume 3.
Unlocking a copy group
When the copy group (generation 1) no longer needs to be locked, or when the contents of secondary
volume 1 are restored to the primary volume, the copy group can be unlocked.
To unlock the copy group:

DBServer > drmcgctl -backup_id 0000000004 -mode unlock
KAVX0001-I The drmcgctl command will now start.
KAVX0303-I The copy group(s) associated with the specified backup ID were unlocked.
