Replication CLI Commands
Failback VTL To the
Source from the Target
System
syscli --failback repvtl --repname <vtl_name> --srchost <source_host> --id
<id> --tgthost <target_host> [--encrypt [--encrypttype 128|256]]
This CLI command allows the CLI admin to failback a replicated VTL. The
replicated VTL name, source hostname and ID can be retrieved from the list of
replicated VTL. The
--tgthost
option specifies the target host where the
replicated VTL will be failed back to.
To complete the failback, on the specified target system, run the
--recover vtl
CLI command specifying the replicated VTL from the list of replicated VTL on the
failback target host system.
Before a user can failback a VTL to its source, the target role IP address must be
configured on the source system first.
If the
--encrypt
option is specified, it encrypts the failback to the failback target.
CLI command options:
•
--failback:
Failback replicated VTL on to a target host.
• -
-repname:
Replicated VTL name to failback.
•
--srchost:
Source host of the original VTL. Use
--list repvtl
as reference
•
--id:
ID from list of replicated VTL. For multiple replication of the VTL name,
ID identifies the replicated batch.
•
--tgthost:
Target host to failback to. The target host must have this system
as as one of the allowed replication source. Use IP address if the hostname
cannot be resolved from the system.
•
--encrypt:
Encrypt the failback to the source.
•
--encrypttype:
if specified, the encryption type will be either 128 bits or 256
bits encryption.
Failback a NAS Share on
the Target
syscli --failback repnas --repname <nas_share_name> --srchost
<source_host> --id <id> --tgthost <target_host> [--encrypt [--
encrypttype 128|256]]
This CLI command allows the admin user to failback a replicated share to its
specified source. The replicated NAS share name, source hostname and ID can
be retrieved from the list of replicated NAS share. The
--tgthost
option specifies
the target host where the replicated NAS share will be failed back to.
To complete the failback, on the source system, run the
--recover share
CLI
command specifying the recovered share from the replicated share list and
select Recover.
Before you can failback a share to its source, the target role IP address must be
configured on the source system first.
CLI command options:
If the
--encrypt
option is specified, it encrypts the failback to the failback target.
•
--failback:
Failback replicated NAS share on to a target host.
•
--repname:
Replicated NAS share name to failback.
