To back up using the snapshot feature and the vradmin ibc command

1. Create the following directory on both Primary and Secondary hosts:

    /etc/vx/vvr/ibc_scripts/dss_app

2. Create the quiesce and unquiesce scripts and copy them to the /etc/vx/vvr/ibc_scripts/dss_app directory on the Primary host.

   In the quiesce script, provide commands to put the application that is using the Primary data volumes hr_dv01 and hr_dv02 in quiesce mode.

   In the unquiesce script, provide commands to resume the application or take it out of the quiesce mode.

3. Create the prefreeze and onfreeze scripts and copy them to the/etc/vx/vvr/ibc_scripts/dss_app directory on the Secondary host. In the prefreeze script, include the following commands to add snapshot plexes to the Secondary data volumes hr_dv01 and hr_dv02:

   #!/bin/sh
   /usr/sbin/vxsnap -g hrdg prepare hr_dv01
   /usr/sbin/vxsnap -g hrdg prepare hr_dv02
   
   /usr/sbin/vxassist -g hrdg make SNAP-hr_dv01 datavolume-length
   /usr/sbin/vxassist -g hrdg make SNAP-hr_dv02 datavolume-length
   
   /usr/sbin/vxsnap -g hrdg prepare SNAP-hr_dv01
   /usr/sbin/vxsnap -g hrdg prepare SNAP-hr_dv01
   	

   In the onfreeze script, include the following command to take the snapshot of the Secondary volumes:

   /usr/sbin/vxrvg -g vvrdg -F -P SNAP snapshot hr_rvg
   	

4. Run the following vradmin ibc command from any host in the RDS:

   # vradmin -g hrdg ibc hr_rvg dss_app london
