Examples

The following examples show the sync subcommand used as an option of the pairsplit command.
For the following example, the data remaining on logical drives C: and D: is written to disk, all
pairs in the specified group are split (status = PSUS), and read/write access is enabled for all
S-VOLs in the specified group.
Sync subcommand example – pairsplit
pairsplit -x sync
For the example in the following, the data remaining on physical devices harddisk2 and harddisk3
is written to disk, all pairs in the specified group are deleted (status = SMPL), which enables
read/write access for all secondary volumes.
Sync subcommand example – pairsplit -s
pairsplit -x sync
The behavior and results of the raidscan –x sync command vary by Windows
...
Description
Specifies the logical drive that you want to synchronize. Data is flushed into the specified logical drive
and the physical drive corresponding to the logical drive. If the specified logical drive has the directory
mount volumes then SYNC is executed to all of the volumes on the logical drive as shown below:
pairsplit -x sync D: [SYNC] D: HarddiskVolume2 [SYNC] D:\hd1 HarddiskVolume8 [SYNC] D:\hd2
HarddiskVolume9
[\directory or \Directory pattern] is used to find the directory mount point on the logical drive. If the
directory is specified, then SYNC does execute to a directory mounted volume only.
pairsplit -x sync D:\hd1 [SYNC] D:\hd1 HarddiskVolume8
If the directory pattern is specified, then SYNC does execute to any directory mounted volumes
identified to "\directory pattern".
pairsplit -x sync D:\h [SYNC] D:\hd1 HarddiskVolume8 [SYNC] D:\hd2 HarddiskVolume9
Synchronizes all logical drives and the physical drives corresponding to the logical drives assuming
that they are on the hard disks. The logical drive on which the RAID Manager software is installed
and the logical drive containing the Windows directory are excluded. If the logical drive has the
directory mount volumes then SYNC is executed to all volumes on the logical drive as shown below:
pairsplit -x sync all [SYNC] C: HarddiskVolume1 [SYNC] D:\hd1 HarddiskVolume8 [SYNC] D:\hd2
HarddiskVolume9 [SYNC] G: HarddiskVolume10
Specifies the range of drives on the Windows system.
Specifies the LDM volumes to be flushed. Volume# must be specified '\Vol# or \Dms# or \Dmt# or
\Dmr#' as LDM volume for Windows systems.
To flush HarddiskVolumeX: -x sync \VolX
For information on '\Vol# or \Dms# or \Dmt# or \Dmr#' for LDM volumes, see Volume Discovery
Function in the User and Reference Guide.
