NAME

       vrnotify - display Veritas Volume Replicator (VVR) events

SYNOPSIS

       vrnotify [-g diskgroup] [-n number] [-t timeout] [rvg1 rvg2...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  vrnotify utility displays events related to Veritas Volume Replicator (VVR) as managed by the Volume Replicator administrative daemon,
       vradmind.  The vrnotify command is a VVR-specific utility and requires a valid VVR license.

       A Replicated Data Set (RDS) is comprised of a Replicated Volume Group (RVG) on the Primary host	and  its  counterparts	on  the  Secondary
       hosts.

       Note: An RDS is a concept used in vradmin; it is not a VVR object.

       The vradmind daemon distributes VVR related events to Primary and Secondary hosts in the RDS.  The vrnotify command displays events for one
       or more RDS.

       The rvg argument is the name of a replicated volume group (RVG) on the local host that specifies the RDS on the local host.  rvg determines
       a  default  local  disk	group,	according to the standard disk group selection rules described in vxintro(1M).	You can specify a specific
       local disk group using the -g  diskgroup option.

       The vrnotify command displays each event on a new line using the following format:

	      host-name:event-type:rds-name:Event Message

       The following event types may be displayed:

       o  resync_started

       o  resync_stopped

       o  resync_paused

       o  lat_throttle_on

       o  lat_throttle_off

       o  lat_throttle_override

       o  lat_throttle_fail

       o  srlprot_throttle_on

       o  srlprot_throttle_off

       o  srlprot_override

       o  srlprot_fail

       o  srl_overflow

       o  srlprot_dcm_on

       o  srlprot_dcm_off

       o  rlk_connect

       o  rlk_disconnect

       o  srl_log_warn

OPTIONS

       -g diskgroup
		 Specifies the disk group for the operation, either by disk group ID or by disk group name.  By default, the disk group is  chosen
		 based on the RDS rvg (if any).

       -n number Displays the indicated number of events, then exits.

       -t timeout
		 Displays  events  for	up  to	timeout  seconds, then exits. The -n and -t options can be combined to specify a maximum number of
		 events and a maximum timeout to wait before exiting.

FILES

       /var/vx/vras/log Directory containing log files for vradmind server.

EXIT CODES
