RDF Control Subvolume
RDF Control Subvolume
The INITIALIZE RDF command includes a control subvolume suffix parameter
(SUFFIX char ), where char is an alphanumeric character. If you include this
parameter, the RDF control subvolume on $SYSTEM will be the local (primary) system
name without the backslash and with the specified character appended to it. If you omit
this parameter, the RDF control subvolume on $SYSTEM will merely be the local
system name without the backslash.
If you want to have several RDF configurations with the same primary system, each
configuration must have its own control subvolume and you must use the SUFFIX
char parameter. Thus, if the name of your primary system is \BOSTON and you
assign the suffix “1”, the control subvolume will be named BOSTON1. If you have two
RDF configurations primaried on \BOSTON, you could initialize one RDF configuration
with the suffix “1” and the other with the suffix “2” so that their control subvolumes
would be named, respectively, “BOSTON1” and “BOSTON2”.
The control subvolume on the primary system contains the following files:
•
$SYSTEM.<control-subvolume>.CONTEXT
•
$SYSTEM.<control-subvolume>.CONFIG
•
$SYSTEM.<control-subvolume>.RDFLOCK
The control subvolume on the backup system contains these files:
•
$SYSTEM.<control-subvolume>.CONTEXT
•
$SYSTEM.<control-subvolume>.CONFIG
•
$SYSTEM.<control-subvolume>.RDFLOCK
•
$SYSTEM.<control-subvolume>.RDFTKOVR
•
$SYSTEM.<control-subvolume>.ZFILEINC
•
$SYSTEM.<control-subvolume>.ZRCVnn (where nn is 01-15)
•
Exception files for each updater (see under RDF System Files in appendix B)
•
Image files for image trail subvolumes (for example, $IMAGE.<control-
subvolume>.AA000001).
•
$IMAGE.<control-subvolume>.ZFILUNDO (master image trail only)
•
$IMAGE.<control-subvolume>.ZTXUNDO (master image trail only)
•
$IMAGE.<control-subvolume>.ZNETUNDO (master image trail only)
•
$IMAGE.<control-subvolume>.ZRDFLCMT (master image trail only)
•
$IMAGE.<control-subvolume>.ZRDFLCM2 (master image trail only)
•
$IMAGE.<control-subvolume>.ZRDFLCM3 (master image trail only)
