Backup Sun StorageTek Common Array Manager's configuration
In Sun manuals, I didn't find how to backup Sun StorageTek Common Array Manager's configuration. Is there a way to do it like backing up Brocade switch configuration? CAM is under Solaris 10.
Hi!
May be Solaris forum is not the best choice for asking such question, but I really need help with SunStorage FC array. AFAIK this array can be configured only with CAM software by Sun, but sadly all previously free Metalink downloads are now accessible only as a part of paid support (and I... (0 Replies)
Hi,
I have a question about Sun StorageTek Common Array Manager (CAM): What is the concept of 'host'? Is it the hostname of the server that has access to the managed array? If so, can I use its IP instead of its hostname?
I've found a 'host' under CAM called XYZ (See below). In our... (7 Replies)

dscfg - configuration tool for Sun StorageTek Availability Suite software
SYNOPSIS
dscfg
dscfg -L
dscfg -h
dscfg [-C group]
dscfg [-C group] -i [-p parser_config_file]
dscfg [-C group] -a config_file
dscfg [-C group] [-l]
dscfg [-C group] [-l] -s config_location
dscfg -D dgname
DESCRIPTION
The dscfg command controls the Availability Suite configuration by providing facilities to initialize, list, format, restore the configura-
tion database.
OPTIONS
If no options are specified, dscfg displays the current local configuration location. The dscfg command supports the following options:
-L
Displays the status of the lock controlling access to the configuration database. If the configuration database is locked, the type of
lock (read or write) is displayed along with the process id of the process that holds the lock.
-h
Displays the usage message for the dscfg command.
-i
Initializes the configuration database. As it deletes previous or current configuration information, this option prompts you to confirm
the deletion before proceeding.
-p parser_config_file
When used with the -i option, dscfg loads the parser configuration file into the persistent configuration, it reformats the configura-
tion database.
-a config_file
Restore the specified config_file into the configuration. This option does not do any error checking of the file. Use of this option
invalidates the configuration file.
-l
Lists the contents of current configuration database in a format that is suitable for the -a option. When used in combination with the
-s option, it displays the contents stored in the location passed to the -s option, but does not set the configuration location.
The options below are for Sun Cluster-configured systems only. group can be either Sun Cluster device group or as '-' as local devices.
-C group
Display the location of cluster configuration database.
-C group -i
Initializes the configuration database entries that only associated with group specified. As it deletes previous or current configura-
tion information, this options prompts you to confirm the deletion before proceeding.
-C group -p parser_config_file
When used with the -i option, dscfg loads the parser configuration file into the persistent configuration, it reformats the configura-
tion database entries that only associated with group specified.
-C group -a config_file
Restore the specified config_file into the configuration database entries that only associated with group specified. This option does
not do any error checking of the file. Use of this option invalidates the configuration file.
-C group -l
Lists the contents of current configuration database that is associated with resource group specified.
-C group -s config_file_location
Specifies where the Sun Cluster configuration database resides, the location has to be DID device.
-D device_group
Checks whether the specified device_group is known by Sun Cluster and whether it is available on this node. It displays a information
that indicates the device group's status and return values are as follows,
(use echo $? to retrieve the return value):
1 Device group is in Sun Cluster and is active on this node;
0 Device group is in Sun Cluster but active on another node;
-1 Device group is not in Sun Cluster.
USAGE
The dscfg command is typically run from other scripts, such as package installation scripts, and from dscfgadm(1M). It is not intended for
general use. For uses of dscfg not covered by dscfgadm, please refer to the Availability Suite Troubleshooting Guide.
FILES
/etc/dscfg_format
parser configuration file
/etc/dscfg_local
configuration location for all entries with no cluster tags
/etc/dscfg_cluster
reference file specifying the location of the Sun Cluster configuration database.
