Backing Up and Restoring Disk Group Configuration Data

The disk group configuration backup and restoration feature allows you to back up and restore all configuration data for disk groups, and for VxVM objects such as volumes that are configured within the disk groups. The vxconfigbackupd daemon monitors changes to the VxVM configuration and automatically records any configuration changes that occur. Two utilities, vxconfigbackup and vxconfigrestore, are provided for backing up and restoring a VxVM configuration for a disk group.

For information on backing up and restoring disk group configurations, see the "Backing Up and Restoring Disk Group Configurations" chapter in the VERITAS Volume Manager Troubleshooting Guide, and the vxconfigbackup(1M) and vxconfigrestore(1M) manual pages.
