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.

-fsystem_information_file

Specifies the file containing the system information (hostname, IP address, network information, etc.) to be copied to EFI/HPUX/SYSINFO.TXT on the disk specified by the -toption. See sysinfo(4) for the syntax of this file. If not specified, the file defaults to /etc/opt/drd/ default_sysinfo_file.

-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.)

-tdevice_special_file

Specifies the block device special file of a single writeable physical disk. The file specified by the -foption will be written to EFI/HPUX/SYSINFO.TXT in the EFI partition of this disk. If no target is specified, the inactive system image is used as a target.

-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.
