Configuration Table Parameters and Values
The format of the configuration file is similar to a Windows .inf file. It has
sections and key value pairs. The section names are the names inside the
square brackets, and key value pairs are in KEY=VALUE format with one pair
on each line. All the entries in the configuration file are case-sensitive.
The key value pairs are under the volumes to which they belong, and the
section names are the names of those volumes. Two examples of the syntax of
the section name in the caagperf.cfg file are [/] or [/export/home]. If a
volume has multiple entries, the behavior of the client agent is undefined.
The key value pairs are used to set parameters for the volume under which
they belong. By default, all options are disabled. If no special processing is
needed for a volume, that volume should not be in the caagperf.cfg file.
The keys and their values are described in the following table:
Key
DOSNAP
SNAPSHOTBUFFER
DOUBIO

Value
Enables the Snapshot feature on a volume. The value
should be BACKUP, meaning that a snapshot should be
taken during the backup operation.
Specifies the buffer used for storing original data
before it is overwritten in the snapped volume. The
value should be a file name or partition. The file can be
a file or a directory from a different volume.
The value of this field depends on the file system type.
For the advanced version of VxFS or Online JFS, the
value is the name of an empty partition. For UFS, the
value is a file name, a directory name, or a partition
name.
Enables the Direct I/O feature on a volume. Values are
BACKUP, RESTORE, and BACKUP_RESTORE. The value
of this field depends on your backup or restore
requirements.
