Recreate-fri, Duplicate, Reorg | HP File System Extender (FSE)

2.9 NAME

If the – –no–monitoroption is not speciﬁed, the progress of the mainte- nance job that performs medium volume closing will be reported to the command output.

•– –recreate–fri

Recreate missing Fast Recovery Information on disk from the migrated metadata on speciﬁed FSE medium or FSE medium volume. For all medium volumes which are closed, the recreated Fast Recovery Informa- tion is also copied to the end part of these volumes.

Note:

Fast Recovery Information on disk speeds up the eventual File System Catalog recovery.

•– –duplicate

Duplicate a source medium to a target medium of the same tape media fam- ily. All data will be copied bit–by–bit: medium volume header (including medium volume UUID), medium volume data and Fast Recovery Informa- tion (from all data volumes as well as system volume). Target medium may not belong to any media pool that is assigned to a partition. For details, see the FSE user guide. If a user wants to replace a medium with its duplicate, then he labels the duplicate medium with original barcode and replaces the original with its copy. For details of the duplication process, see the FSE user guide.

•– –reorg

Start the media reorganization job for the speciﬁed FSE medium or FSE medium volume(s). If the – –no–monitoroption is not speciﬁed, the progress of the reorganization job will be reported to the command out- put. Note that you can only start the reorganization job if the FSE medium volumes involved in the process have already been scanned for obsolete data. Note that the reorganization process may take a considerable amount of time. For the reorganization process details, see the FSE user guide .

•– –copy–contents

Recreate a redundant copy of the unreadable data that is located on a dam- aged medium. The copy is recreated from the corresponding data in another
