We are doing lots of cleanup on our replication target server and have noticed an issue with stopping/purging replication of specific filespaces (in this case, SystemState). All servers are RHEL Linux 7 ISP 7.1.7.400
As we understand it, UPDATE FILESPACE insertnodenamehere 1 nametype=fsid datatype=back *replstate=Purgedata* is supposed to both STOP replication of that filespace and PURGE existing data for that filesystem on the target replication server. It seems to NOT do either. The SystemState filesystems are still on the replication target server and when I checked yesterday, they were still being replicated/updated. We issued the purgedata at least a couple of months ago so timing shouldn't be an issue. So, what are we missing? FWIW, we are working to stop backing up SystemState completely (via CLOPTSET DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL -SYSTEMSTATE) and will then purge all SystemState backups manually. In the meantime, why isn't this working? -- *Zoltan Forray* Spectrum Protect (p.k.a.
