Activating the Bunker RVG

Use the vxrds activatebunker command to activate the Bunker RVG to take over the Primary role when the original Primary becomes unavailable.

After the Bunker RVG has been converted to a Primary, you can start replication to the Secondary host using the vxrds startrep command with the -b option to replay all the pending updates. When the updates have been replayed and the status of the Secondary is up-to-date, you can either perform a takeover to convert the Secondary to a Primary, or restore the original Primary, if it becomes available again.

Syntax for vxrds activatebunker command:

vxrds [-g <diskgroup>] activatebunker <local_rvg>

Example:

vxrds -g vvrdg -b activatebunker rvg
