This task describes how to back up system metadata.
Steps
- From the Administrative command-line interface, create a new system-metadata
disaster-recovery dump file.
sfscli> mkdrfile dr_file_1
- Verify that the system-metadata disaster-recovery file was created.
sfscli> lsdrfile
- Exit the Administrative command-line interface and change directories
to the directory where the recovery files are stored. List the files in this
directory to verify that you have at least four files.
sfscli>exit
# cd /usr/tank/server/DR
# ls
- Save these files with your normal file data backup procedures.
These files are used to recover system metadata as part of the disaster recovery
procedures. In addition, you should also back up the /usr/tank/server/config/Tank.Config
and /usr/tank/server/config/Tank.Bootstrap files from the master.
