Re: [gpfsug-discuss] Backing up GPFS config

[Skylar Thompson]

I can't remember if I replied to that post or a different one, but these
are the commands we capture output for before running mmbackup:

mmlsconfig
mmlsnsd
mmlscluster
mmlscluster --cnfs
mmlscluster --ces
mmlsnode
mmlsdisk ${FS_NAME} -L
mmlspool ${FS_NAME} all -L
mmlslicense -L
mmlspolicy ${FS_NAME} -L
mmbackupconfig ${FS_NAME} 

All the commands but mmbackupconfig produce human-readable output, while
mmbackupconfig produces machine-readable output suitable for recovering the
filesystem in a disaster.

Re: [gpfsug-discuss] Backing up GPFS config

[Jan-Frode Myklebust]

Plese see
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/wikis/home?lang=en#!/wiki/General%20Parallel%20File%20System%20(GPFS)/page/Back%20Up%20GPFS%20Configuration

But also check «mmcesdr primary backup». I don't rememner if it included
all of mmbackupconfig/mmccr, but I think it did, and it also includes CES
config. You don't need to be using CES DR to use it.
