HP XP P9000 Replication Manager Software 7.6.0-00 Application Agent CLI Reference Guide

2. The command confirms that the file system has been unmounted, and then resynchronizes the
disks by restoring the backup data from the secondary volume to the primary volume.
3. The command mounts the file system again.
The following explains the command processing for restoration in a cluster configuration:
1. The command automatically takes the disk resource offline when the disk resource in the file
system to be restored is brought online.
If an attempt to take a disk resource offline fails, the command displays an error message and
restoration processing fails.
When the disk resource has already been taken offline, processing proceeds to the next step.
2. The command confirms that the disk resource has been successfully taken offline, and then resyn-
chronizes the disk by restoring the backup data from the secondary volume to the primary volume.
3. The command brings the disk resource online.
In a Microsoft Cluster Service or Windows Server Failover Clustering environment, you can restore
a volume within a cluster group while the cluster resources are online. To enable this, make sure that
CLU_MSCS_RESTORE is set to ONLINE in the Application Agent configuration definition file
(init.conf).
Restoration overwrites the entire primary volume with the entire secondary volume that contains a
backup of the primary volume. Therefore, additions and changes to the primary volume after the
backup was created are not applied.
Before executing this command, all application software using the volume to be restored must be
stopped. The volume being used by the operating system cannot be restored.
This command should be used to restore the primary volume to the secondary volume. This command
should not be used when data is being backed up from the secondary volume to a tape device with
the drmmediabackup command, when data is being restored from a tape device to the secondary
volume with the drmmediarestore command, or when the secondary volume is being mounted
with the drmmount command.
If the partition style of the physical disk is changed after a backup, and the command is then executed,
the command result will vary as described in the following table.
