Chapter 4 Functions of ReplicationControl 114
The iSMvollist command corresponds to the system information on the logical disk of the disk array
that can be recognized from a business server and saves necessary volume information in the volume
list.
Only the volumes that have already been registered in the volume list can be specified when data
replication or snapshot operation is performed. Therefore, you need to execute the iSMvollist
command to create the volume list beforehand.
When you have added or deleted disk arrays to or from the system or built or cancelled logical disks,
you must update the volume list to reflect the information. If the volume list is not updated,
inconsistency may occur in data replication or snapshot operation or disk operations, such as flushing or
unmounting Windows volumes.
You can specify one of the following options in the iSMvollist command.
(i) Create/update the volume list (-cr)
Scans devices connected to the system and creates or updates the volume list.
(ii) Displays the volume list
You can select one of the following options.
-d option: Lists disk array information.
-dl option: Displays information only associated with specified disk arrays sorted by using
logical disk number as the key. If a specific logical disk name is specified, the
system displays information only associated with the specified logical disk.
-de option: Displays information only associated with specified disk arrays sorted by using
logical disk name as the key. If a specific logical disk name is specified, the
system displays information only associated with the specified logical disk name.
-dd option: Displays information only associated with specified disk arrays sorted by using
drive name as the key. If a specific drive letter or a path name of the NTFS folder
is specified, the system displays information only associated with the specified drive
letter or path name of the NTFS folder.
-dp option: Displays information only associated with specified disk arrays sorted by using
physical disk number as the key. If a specific physical disk number is specified,
the system displays information only associated with the specified physical disk.
-dh option: Displays information only associated with specified disk arrays sorted by using
HBT and LUN as the key. If HBT is specified, the system displays information
only associated with the specified HBT. If LUN is specified, the system displays
information only associated with the specified HBT and LUN.
-a option: Displays information associated with all logical disks.
-al option: Displays information only associated with specified logical disks.
-ae option: Displays information only associated with specified logical disk names.
