Chapter 3 Archiving 87
The -startage, -startcount, and -startsize directives can be specified in an
archiver.cmd file for each archive copy. If more than one of these directives is
specified, the first condition encountered starts the archive operation. If none of
these directives is specified, the archive request is scheduled based on the examine=
method directive, as follows:
■ If examine=noscan, the default values are as follows: startage 10 minutes,
startcount 10,000, and startsize 10 gigabytes. The archive request is
scheduled according to the interval=time directive’s specification after the first
file is entered in the archive request. This is continuous archiving. By default,
examine=noscan.
■ If examine=scan|scaninodes|scandirs, the archive request is scheduled for
archiving after the file system scan.
The archiver.cmd(4) man page has examples that show how to use these
directives.
VSN Association Directives
The VSN associations section of the archiver.cmd file assigns volumes to archive
sets. This section starts with a vsns directive and ends with an endvsns directive.
VSN associations can also be configured with the File System Manager software. See
the File System Manager online help for more information.
Collections of volumes are assigned to archive sets by directives of the following
form:
archive-set-name.copy-num media-type vsn-expr ... [ -pool vsn-pool-name ... ]
TABLE 3-22 Arguments for the VSN Association Directive
Argument Meaning
archive-set-name A site-defined name for the archive set. Must be the first field in
the archive set assignment directive. An archive set name is usually
indicative of the characteristics of the files belonging to the archive
set. Archive set names are restricted to the letters in the alphabet,
numbers, and the underscore character (_). No other special
characters or spaces are allowed. The first character in the archive
set name must be a letter.
copy-num A digit followed by one or more arguments that specify archive
characteristics for that copy. Archive copy directives begin with a
digit. This digit (1, 2, 3,or4) is the copy number.
