HP STORAGEWORKS ENTERPRISE FILE SERVICES REMOTE COPY UTILITY REFERENCE MANUAL 23

3 - THE HP EFS REMOTE COPY

TILITY COMMANDS

Example >rcu /prepop c:\data wa1

Client Options

The following CLI options are available for the client commands. It contains the

following client CLI options:

 “/compareacls,” next

 “/excludepath” on page 23

 “/timelimit” on page 24

/compareacls

Description For two files that are the same except for their security descriptors, the HP EFS RCU

recognizes them as different and mirrors them from the client to the server. If the /

compareacls option is not specified, the HP EFS RCU recognizes the files as the

same and does not mirror them.

TIP: You can also use the /compareacls option in the monitor and mirror modes.

By default, for broadcast shares in PFS deployments, Access Control Lists (ACLs) are

not compared. If only the ACL has changed on the server, this is not reflected on the

proxy file server (that is, the HP EFS WAN Accelerator). If you need to update the

ACLs for a broadcast mode share, the HP EFS RCU must be temporarily started with

the /compareacls option. After the transfer is complete, the HP EFS RCU must be

started with the default options. If the HP EFS RCU service always runs with the /

compareacls option, it transfers the entire broadcast even when there is no change to

the file.

For detailed information about Proxy File Service, see the HP StorageWorks

Enterprise Files Services WAN Accelerator Deployment Guide and the HP EFS WAN

Accelerator Management Console User Guide.
