replicate
[last-snapshot]
[snapshot snapshot-ID]
replication-set-ID
Parameters
last-snapshot
Optional. Specifies to replicate the most recent snapshot of the primary volume, instead of the base
volume. You cannot specify both this parameter and the snapshot parameter.
snapshot snapshot-ID
Optional. This advanced option enables you to replicate a particular snapshot of the primary volume,
instead of the base volume or its most recent snapshot. You can specify the name or serial number
of the snapshot to replicate. You cannot specify both this parameter and the last-snapshot
parameter.
NOTE: This operation can affect the order of replication revisions, making the secondary
retention set confusing to understand.
replication-set-ID
The name or serial number of the replication set to replicate.
Examples Replicate the volumes in replication set RS1.
# replicate RS1
Replicate the most recent snapshot of volumes in replication set RS1.
# replicate last-snapshot RS1
Replicate snapshot RS1V1Snap3 in replication set RS1.
# replicate snapshot RS1V1Snap3 RS1

rescan
Description
This command forces rediscovery of disks and enclosures in the storage system.
CAUTION: Performing a rescan will temporarily pause all I/O processes.
If both Storage Controllers are online and able to communicate with both expansion modules in each
connected enclosure, this command rebuilds the internal SAS layout information, reassigns enclosure
IDs based on controller A’s enclosure cabling order, and ensures that the enclosures are displayed
in the proper order. A manual rescan temporarily pauses all I/O processes, then resumes normal
operation. It can take up to two minutes for the enclosure IDs to be corrected.
A manual rescan may be needed after system power-up to display enclosures in the proper order.
Whenever you replace a drive chassis or controller chassis, perform a manual rescan to force fresh
discovery of all drive enclosures connected to the controller enclosure.
A manual rescan is not needed after inserting or removing non-FDE disks because the controllers
automatically detect these changes. When disks are inserted they are detected after a short delay,
which allows the disks to spin up
