ds dd convert-to-local
To convert a distributed device to a local device, this command detaches the leg that is not on the specified cluster.
Context
All contexts
Syntax
ds dd convert-to-local
[-h | --help]
[-v | --verbose]
[[-c | --cluster = ]cluster-context]
[-f | --force]
[[-d | --distributed-device=] distributed device]
Arguments
Optional arguments
-h | --help Displays the usage for this command. --verbose Provides more output during command
execution. This may not have any effect for some commands.
-c | --cluster= cluster context Specifies the context path of the cluster where the distributed device will be local. If the
device is exported to any cluster it must be the chosen cluster.
-f | --force Forces the command to proceed, bypassing all user warnings. positional arguments
Specifies the distributed device to make local.
-d | --distributed-device=
context path
Specifies the context path of the distributed device to make local.
The remaining leg becomes the supporting device of the virtual volume. The target device should NOT be migration temporary
device and should not be exported to any other cluster than the specified cluster. For distributed devices that are part of a
consistency-group please refer to the connsistency-group convert-local command.
