prevent the creation of future Enhanced FlashCopy images because the repository logical drive is full.
When you use the
autoDeleteLimit
parameter it causes the storage management software to
automatically delete Enhanced FlashCopy images. The storage management software deletes Enhanced
FlashCopy images until it reaches a number of Enhanced FlashCopy images that is equal to the number
that you enter with
autoDeleteLimit
parameter. When new Enhanced FlashCopy images are added to the
repository logical drive, the storage management software deletes the oldest Enhanced FlashCopy images
until the
autoDeleteLimit
parameter number is reached.
Scheduling Enhanced FlashCopies
The
enableSchedule
parameter and the schedule parameter provide a way for you to schedule creating
Enhanced FlashCopy images for an Enhanced FlashCopy group. Using these parameters, you can
schedule Enhanced FlashCopies daily, weekly, or monthly (by day or by date). The
enableSchedule
parameter turns on or turns off the ability to schedule Enhanced FlashCopies. When you enable
scheduling, you use the
schedule
parameter to define when you want the Enhanced FlashCopies to occur.
This list explains how to use the options for the
schedule
parameter:
v
immediate
- As soon as you enter the command, an Enhanced FlashCopy image is created, and a
copy-on-write operation begins.
v
startDate
- A specific date on which you want to create an Enhanced FlashCopy image and perform a
copy-on-write operation. The format for entering the date is MM:DD:YY. If you do not provide a start
date, the current date is used. An example of this option is
startDate=06:27:11
v
scheduleDay
- A day of the week on which you want to create an Enhanced FlashCopy image and
perform a copy-on-write operation. You can enter these values:
monday
,
tuesday
,
wednesday
,
thursday
,
friday
,
saturday
, and
sunday
. An example of this option is
scheduleDay=wednesday
.
v
startTime
- The time of a day that you want to create an Enhanced FlashCopy image and start
performing a copy-on-write operation. The format for entering the time is HH:MM, where HH is the
hour and MM is the minute past the hour. Use a 24-hour clock. For example, 2:00 in the afternoon is
14:00. An example of this option is
startTime=14:27
.
v
scheduleInterval
- An amount of time, in minutes, that you want to have as a minimum between
copy-on-write operations. You can possibly create a schedule in which you have overlapping
copy-on-write operations because of the duration a copy operation. You can make sure that you have
time between copy-on-write operations by using this option. The maximum value for the
scheduleInterval
option is
1440
minutes. An example of this option is
scheduleInterval=180
.
v
endDate
- A specific date on which you want to stop creating an Enhanced FlashCopy image and end
the copy-on-write operation. The format for entering the date is MM:DD:YY. An example of this option
is
endDate=11:26:11
.
v
noEndDate
- Use this option if you do not want your scheduled copy-on-write operation to end. If you
later decide to end the copy-on-write operations you must re-enter the set
enhancedFlashCopyGroup
command and specify an end date.
v
timesPerDay
- The number of times that you want the schedule to run in a day. An example of this
option is
timesPerDay=4
.
v
timeZone
- Use this parameter to define the time zone in which the storage subsystem is operating. You
can define the time zone in one of two ways:
–
GMT±HH:MM
- The time zone offset from GMT. Enter the offset in hours and minutes. For example
GMT-06:00 is the central time zone in the United States.
–
Text string
- Standard time zone text strings. For example: "USA/Chicago" or "Germany/Berlin".
Time zone text strings s are case sensitive. If you enter an incorrect text string, GMT time is used.
Enclose the text string in double quotation marks.
The code string for defining a schedule is similar to these examples:
