Opening a Controller in Snapshot Mode
A snapshot is an instantaneous read-only copy of a container
"snapped" at a precise point in time. Automated backup scripts can
take advantage of the snapshot feature. The open command
provides a snapshot mode that allows an automated backup script
to work even if other users have the CLI open somewhere on the
network. Note that when you open a controller in snapshot mode,
you can use only the read-only related commands and the
commands related to the snapshot feature. See Working with Snapshot
Containers on page 10-1 for further information on the Snapshot
feature.
To open the HPN0 controller in snapshot mode, use the open
command with the /snapshot switch, as in the following example.
HPN0> open /snapshot=TRUE HPN0
Executing: open /snapshot=TRUE "HPN0"
Closing a Controller
To close an open controller on the supported operating system, use
the close command, as in the following example:
HPN0> close
Executing: close
A controller can also be closed by exiting from the CLI using the
exit command, as in the following example:
HPN0> exit
Executing: exit
Note: The close and exit commands are not available
when accessing the CLI through FAST.
