vxcbr

The vxcbr utility provides the ability for users to back up and restore their Storage Foundation configuration. This utility does not back up and restores data. Only the backup of Storage Foundation configuration - that is, the disk group and logical volume layout on a server is taken.

The history of backup and restore operations is saved in the command line log, vxcli.log, at the following location:

C:\Program Files\Veritas\Veritas Volume Manager\logs

backup

Backs up the Storage Foundation configuration.

restore

Takes a latest backup and restores the Storage Foundation configuration.

write_signature

Manually writes a signature to a disk.

Typing the following sequence for each keyword brings up a description of its syntax:

Note:

The vxcbr utility does not support Microsoft Disk Management Disk Groups. To back up the configuration of a Microsoft Disk Management Disk Group, use the Windows Server Backup feature of Windows.
