A.1.3 The drd deactivate command

The drd-deactivate(1M) command invokes the setboot(1M) command to set the primary boot disk to the active (booted) system image the next time the system is booted.

NOTE: drd deactivate is a mechanism for “undoing” a drd activate command.

The drd deactivate command syntax is:

drd deactivate [-?] [-p] [-q] [-v] [-x extended option=value] [-x -?] [-X option_file]

Options

-?

Displays the usage message for a DRD command. This option cannot be used with other options.

-p

Sets preview mode. When run with the -poption, a DRD command performs analysis without running the command and reports any errors.

-q

Decreases the verbosity level by one each time it is specified. For example, -qqwill reduce the verbosity from the default value of 4 to 2. If both -x verbosity=5 and -qqqare included on the command line, the effective verbosity is 2. The minimum verbosity level is 0. (See also the -x verbosity option.)

-v

Increases the verbosity level by one each time it is specified. For example, -vwill increase the effective verbosity from the default value of 4 to 5. If both -x verbosity=1 and -vvare included on the command line, the effective verbosity is 3. The maximum verbosity level is 5. (See also the -x verbosity option.)

-xextended_option=value

Sets the extended option to a value.

-x -?

Displays the list of possible -x(extended) options.

-Xoption_file

Gets the extended options from a file.

Extended options

The following extended options are available:

-x alternate_bootdisk=block_device_special_file

This is the alternate boot disk. The alternate boot disk must be specified as a block device special file.

-x HA_alternate_bootdisk=block_device_special_file

This is the High Availability alternate boot disk. The High Availability alternate boot disk must be specified as a block device special file. High Availability alternate boot disk is supported only on Itanium-based architecture and for PA-RISC systems that support hardware partitions.

-x ignore_unmounted_fs={truefalse}

(Default is false) Controls whether a clone fails when an unmounted file system in the root volume group is detected.
