Hi edhoward1,

Yes you can mount a snapsure checkpoint. The best practice is to rename it before mounting.

Commands :

$ server_mount -option cvfsname=

  is the current checkpoint name displayed by server_mount

mount point of the checkpoint

Example : to change the name of checkpoint ufs1_ckpt1 to Monday while mountingthe checkpoint on Data Mover server_2 at mount point ufs1, type:

$ server_mount server_2 -option cvfsname=Monday ufs1_ckpt1 /ufs1

Thanx

Rakesh

keep in mind, if you rename a checkpoint you will not be able to use built-in scheduler to refresh it, it will have to refreshed manually. There is no need to re-name a checkpoint unless you have very specific use-cases.

Are you able to do this slightly easier in Replication Manager?

Yes, you should be. For more details please look at this : http://www.tentonmarketing.com/Portfolio/EMC_Replication-Mgr-WP.pdf If you have it already integrated to your Unisphere or Navisphere, can perform the same from there too.

Thnx

Rakesh
