RMSql mount

SYNTAX

RMSql mount -s <SQL server> -t <timestamp> [-m <mount point>] [-ts <host name>]

DESCRIPTION

The RMSql mount command mounts a virtual copy created by the RMSql create command.

To mount a virtual copy, you must create an available mount point on the NTFS volume before you execute the command.

PARAMETERS

The following options are supported:

-s <SQL server> -t <timestamp> -m <mount point>

The SQL server associated with the database.

The timestamp for the virtual copy to be mounted.

Optional. The mount point for virtual copy devices. If not specified, %SystemDrive%\3parSnapshot is used as the default mount point.

-ts <hostname> Optional. The name of the host on which to mount the virtual copy. If not specified, the local host is used as the default mount point.

WARNING! If you mount a volume with the RMSql mount command, you must unmount the volume with the RMSql unmount command. Do not manually unmount a volume that was mounted with the RMSql mount command.

NOTE: When mounting in read-write mode, the system uses VDS API to make the volume read-writeable. However if there is another operation on the disk and the device is locked, you cannot unmount the volume. If you attempt to unmount a locked volume, the system displays the following error message:

ERROR: COM call “pVolumeMF->Dismount(TRUE,FALSE)” failed. Returned HRESULT = 0x80042413

Error text: <Unknown error code>

Error: There was an expected HRESULT error catched: 0x80042413 <Unknown error code>

This error message indicates the same issue as VDS_E_DEVICE_IN_USE.

To resolve the issue, restart the VDS service or reboot the machine.

NOTE: Recovery Manager for SQL only supports snapshot exposure to a host.
