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

Always specify this option when backing up from a primary volume to a secondary volume on the
remote side. If you omit this option, the secondary volume on the local side is backed up.
If you omit the name-identifying-the-generation parameter, the secondary volume that has the smallest
value among the generation numbers on the remote-side becomes the backup destination. In this case,
the generation number is remote_n, where n is the smallest generation number.
-pf copy-parameter-definition-file
Specify this option to use the number of retries and the retry interval defined in the copy parameter
definition file. Specify the copy-parameter-definition-file parameter as a file name only; do not specify
the parameter as a path.
If you omit this option, the value in the RAID Manager-linkage definition file (DEFAULT.dat) is used.
The values in the RAID Manager-linkage definition file (DEFAULT.dat) are used for any parameters
that are not included in the copy parameter definition file.
You can create a copy parameter definition file using any name you choose. Specify the file name
by using an alphanumeric character string that is 64 bytes or less. You must save the copy parameter
definition file in the following folder: Application-Agent-installation-directory\DRM\conf\raid
-vf VSS-definition-file-name
Specify this option to switch the backup settings used for each VSS backup. You can specify this
option only when using VSS to perform a backup.
Specify the VSS-definition-file-name parameter as a file name only; do not specify the parameter as
a path. You must save the VSS definition file specified in this option in the following folder:
Application-Agent-installation-directory\DRM\conf\vss
If you omit this option, the command uses the following file as the VSS definition file:
Application-Agent-installation-directory\DRM\conf\vsscom.conf
-script user-script-file-name
Specify this option to execute a user script. Specify user-script-file-name as an absolute path. The
conditions for specifying a value in the user-script-file-name parameter are as follows:
• The value must be 255 bytes or less.
• The value can use alphanumeric, one-byte space, and multi-byte characters.
• The value is case sensitive.
• If the value contains space characters, the entire parameter must be enclosed in double quotation
marks (").
• The following reserved characters cannot be used in the parameter: \ / : * ? | < > "
If you specify LOCATION=REMOTE in the user script file, you must also specify the -s option.
-s backup-server-name
Specify this option to connect to a remote backup server to perform a backup. Specify the
backup-server-name parameter by using the host name or the IP address of the backup server. Specify
the host name by using a character string is 255 bytes or less. You can specify the IP address in IPv4
or IPv6 format.
If you specify a backup server using the -s option, the server names specified in the VSS definition
file (vsscom.conf) and the VSS definition file specified using the -vf option are ignored. The
backup server name specified in the -s option will be used.
