Dell EMC Solutions Enabler 9.2 SRDF Family CLI User Guide

Recover using reconfigure operations

Use the reconfigure operation (to change the mode to Cascaded SRDF/Star) as the initial recovery step.

Syntax

symstar -cg CgName [-noprompt] [-i Interval][-c Count]
     -wkload SiteName
     -opmode concurrent | cascaded
     reconfigure 
         -path SrcSiteName:TgtSiteName   
         -site TgtSiteName   
         -remove SrcSiteName:TgtSiteName   
         -full
         -reset
         -force

Options

-path SrcSiteName:TgtSiteName
Specifies the sites on which the new SRDF pairs are created when the reconfigure command is issued.
-site TgtSiteName
Specifies the SiteName to apply the given action.
-reset
Performs a reset action on the path when the reconfigure action is issued.
-remove SrcSiteName:TgtSiteName
Specifies the sites on which the SRDF pairs are removed.

Example

To reconfigure CG StarGrp so that the path to London is NewJersey -> London:

symstar -cg StarGrp reconfigure -reset -site London -path NewJersey:London

The topology of the configuration is now cascaded:

Restrictions

  • If the asynchronous target site is in the Disconnected state and STAR is unprotected, specify the -full.
  • If the asynchronous target site is in the PathFail state and STAR is unprotected, specify the -reset and -full options.
  • Specify the -full option only when an SRDF incremental resynchronization is not available.
  • Perform the recover operation to recover from PathFail (asynchronous target site) and a tripped state (SRDF/Star).
