Powerpath Command
PowerPath is a host-based software that provides path management. EMC PowerPath operates with several SAN storage systems, on several operating systems, with Fibre Channel and iSCSI data channels. PowerPath 5.3 Windows is version of PowerPath that should be used for Microsoft Hyper-V. PowerPath provide dynamic multipath load balancing. PowerPath distributes I/O requests to a logical device across all available paths, thus improving I/O performance and reducing management time and downtime

PowerPath/VE for Windows Hyper-V provides the same multipathing functionality and loadbalancing as PowerPath for Windows in non-virtual environments. PowerPath/VE is known as PowerPath in Virtual Environment (Supported VMWare vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V). Separate license is required to use PowerPath in a Hyper-V environment. (PowerPath-VE for Microsoft Hyper-V) There are additional benefits aside from the obvious performance improvements of loadbalancing. y Clustered environments supported. y Streamline and Automate I/O performance y Simplified, single management of physical and virtual environments. y Automated failover. y Auto detect on problem paths and restore of problem paths QUICK REFEREN 1 (508) 435-5374

EMC TimeFinder/CLONE [ SYMCLONE ]

1. Creating a new session. #symclone -f <devices file> create -copy/-precopy -sid <symm id> -nop If you use -copy copying blocks from source to target LUNS gets copied in the background as soon as activate them. If you use precopy, copy will start immediately and wont wait for activate to be run. Note : This will be full copy from source to target 2. Activating a previously created session. #symclone -f <devices file> activate -sid <symm id> -consistent -nop As soon as session is activated block level copy starts if session is created with -copy option. 3. Query the session to find out how is copy going on. You would see status as copy in progress or Copied. #symclone -f <devices file> query -sid <symm id> nop 4. If copying is complete and you want to create a new session. before to that youve to Terminate the existing session. #symclone -f <devices file> terminate -sid <symm id> nop All the above steps does are full copy from source LUN to target LUN. If you dont want to do full copy & copy the only changed tracks. symclone has that options too. Differential Copy :
1.Create a first session with -diff option

#symclone f <devices file> create -copy/-precopy diff sid <symm id> nop
Note : This session will be full copy too. only thing is subsequent copies can be created with recreate option & theyll be just differential and fast. 2. Activate the session.

#symclone -f <devices file> activate -sid <symm id> -consistent -nop 3. for subsequent point in time clone creations. you dont(shouldnt) need to terminate the session. instead Recreate the same session using below and activate them using activate. #symclone -f <devices file> recreate -sid <symm id> nop 4. Activate it for start copying blocks. This should be fast. #symclone -f <devices file> activate -sid <symm id> -consistent -nop Restoring or Reverse Cloning : Incase if something happens to source LUNS. if you want to restore from target. you could do using following commands. you dont have to flip the devices. you could use same device file. #symclone -f <devices file> restore -sid <symm id> nop you dont need to activate as restore will establish in opposite directions and automatically activates them to. when you query you should see the status as Restore in Progress. once restore is complete you would see Restored. If you want to normal clone from source to target again after restore is complete. you need to Split the existing reverse clone session by using below command. #symclone -f <devices file> split -sid <symm id> nop

Now. you could go-ahead with recreate and activate for normal clones
