Stopping SMF Processes
must be associated with a storage pool (but not necessarily the storage pool
associated with the virtual disk). HP recommends that they be placed on a mirrored
volume.
Stopping SMF Processes
To stop a running SMF process for D-series versions, use the COUP STOP command:
COUP STOP PROCESS $process-name
To stop a running SMF process for G-series versions, use the SCF RESET command:
SCF RESET $process-name, FORCED
SCF prompts you as to whether or not you really want to stop the process.
Virtual Disk Processes and Safeguard
Normally, you cannot delete a virtual disk process until all you have first deleted all the
files associated with it. It is possible to delete a VDP even if a SAFE.GUARD file is
open on it using the steps following.
First, gather information about the files on the VDP with the FUP INFO command:
FUP INFO $VDP.*.*, DETAIL
Next, stop and delete the VDP.
For D-series versions, issue the following PUP commands, using the
IGNOREINCONSISTENCY option of the STOP because there are file on the VDP:
PUP DOWN $VDP
PUP UP $VDP, SPECIAL
PUP DELETEVIRTDISK ! $VDP
You will receive this warning:
WARNING: The DELETEVIRTDISK operation will cause Virtual
Disk $VDP to be deleted from the SMF environment.
Are you sure you want to DELETEVIRTDISK $VDP [ Y/N ]?
To delete the virtual disk process, enter Y. The system will respond:
10:49 11NOV97 243,01,057 NonStop SMF *5213* Master Process
\SMSGRP.$ZSMS: The deletion of SMF process \SMSGRP.$VDP may
result in inconsistency.
For G-series versions, issue the following SCF commands:
SCF STOP $VDP
SCF DELETE $VDP, IGNOREINCONSISTENCY
