HP StorageWorks P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.0 Mainframe Agent Installation and Configuration Guide (TB581-96014, November 2010)

The secondary volume that is not formatted as a file system or that is in the mirror status cannot be
mounted.
The drmmount command can be used to mount secondary volumes that are backup or restoration
targets configured as a disk group by the volume manager. To mount a secondary volume in a dynamic
disk configuration (the equivalent of a disk group) in a Veritas Volume Manager for Windows
environment, a copy group mount definition file must be created in advance . This file is created
automatically when the drmmount command is executed with the -conf option specified.
In the following cases, this command outputs a message, and results in an error without mounting the
secondary volume:
• You execute this command on a host that cannot reference the secondary volume.
• The primary volume's copy group name, LDEV number and DKC serial number that were acquired
when the backup was executed does not match the information on the current backup server.
• You execute this command on the secondary volume in the paired status (PAIR).
Arguments
-copy_group copy-group-name
Specify the name of the copy group to mount. The system cache must be cleared before a data backup
. Specify the copy group from the backup server to mount the secondary volume, and then unmount
the secondary volume by using the drmumount command to clear the system cache.
If the -copy_group option is specified with a dynamic disk configuration in a Veritas Volume
Manager for Windows environment, you must create a copy group mount definition file in advance.
To check the name of a copy group, execute either the drmfscat command or the drmfsdisplay
command.
-mount_pt mount-point-directory-name
Use an absolute path name to specify the mount point directory to which the secondary volume is to
be mounted.
Specify the drive letter as the mount point directory name or specify the absolute path from the drive
letter.
• Maximum number of characters: The specifiable path length depends on the limitations for the
RAID Manager mount or unmount functions.
• Characters: Characters that can be used for directory names in Windows (you cannot use spaces)
If you specify a drive for the mount point directory name, the command searches for unused drive
names in alphabetical order beginning from the specified drive, and then mounts the secondary
volume on the first found drive.
If you specify an absolute path from the drive letter as the mount point directory name, the command
mounts the secondary volume on the following location:
When mounting the secondary volume by specifying the copy group name:
absolute-path-specified-for-mount-point-directory-name
When mounting the secondary volume by specifying the backup ID:
absolute-path-specified-for-mount-point-directory-name\
primary-volume-drive-letter\primary-volume-mount-point
If a path does not end with \, the command assumes \ at the end of the path. For example, D: and
D:\ are assumed to be the same drive. D:\MOUNTDIR and D:\MOUNTDIR\ are assumed to be the
same directory.
