SETTING THE DISK GROUP PAIRS CONFIGURATION FILE
The omnidbsmis command can be used to manipulate the EVA disk group pairs
configuration file.
By default, the snapclones are created in the same disk group as the source volumes.
However, you can define the allocation of snapclones and allocate them to a disk
group other than the one used for the source volumes.
The omnidbsmis options used for manipulating the EVA disk group pairs
configuration filer, which should be used together with the -dgrules option, are:
-init, -put, -get, -check.
SETTING UP EVA HOME CONFIGURATION FILE
The omnidbsmis command can be used to manipulate the home EVA storage system
configuration file. You can create a new home configuration file template and store
it in its default configuration directory, download the file for editing and upload it
back in the SMISDB. You can also list the data replication (DR) groups with a specified
EVA acting as home and check if a specified DR group is part of CA+BC
configuration.
The omnidbsmis options used for manipulating the home EVA configuration file
are: -caconf, -init, -get, -put, -list, -check.
QUERYING THE INFORMATION ON THE BACKUP OBJECTS
The omnidbsmis command can be used to query the SMISDB for the information
on the backup sessions (the product of every successful backup session is a replica)
and the backup specifications (a group of replicas, created using the same backup
specification, is a replica set).
Using the omnidbsmis command to query the SMISDB, you can:
1. Get detailed information on a specific backup session (replica).
2. Get detailed information on all backup sessions created using a specific backup
specification (replica set).
3. Get a list of all backup sessions created using the same backup specification.
4. Get a list of all backup sessions available for instant recovery.
5. Get a list of all backup specifications that have a replica created.
6. Get a list of replicas to be deleted (having the purge flag).
Note that session details are only displayed for the sessions that have the Keep the
replica after the backup option selected in the backup specification.
ZDB-to-tape sessions without this option set are deleted from the SMISDB after each
such backup.
