How do I manage checkpoints from the command line?
To view all checkpoints on a volume:
chkpntls VOLUME_NAME
A list of all checkpoints on volume is displayed.
To create a single checkpoint, enter the following command from the CLI:
chkpntmk VOLUME-NAME CHECKPOINT-NAME
Volume-name is the volume that will be checkpointed.
Checkpoint_name is name of checkpoint that is to be created.
Example: chkpntmk vol1 mycp
To delete a single checkpoint, enter the following command from the CLI:
chkpntrm VOLUME-NAME CHECKPOINT-NAME
Volume-name is the volume that contains the checkpoint.
Checkpoint_name is name of checkpoint that is to be deleted.
Example: chkpntrm vol1 20020117-200000,14d2h
To rename a single checkpoint, enter the following command from the CLI:
chkpntmv VOLUME-NAME OLD-CHECKPOINT-NAME NEW-CHECKPOINT-NAME
Renaming a scheduled automatic checkpoint and not using the same naming
convention that the system uses for automatic checkpoints causes it not be removed
automatically by the checkpoint manager. In effect, it now becomes a manual
checkpoint.
For additional information on this topic, please refer to the document, “Checkpoint
White Paper”.
