Limitations for Tru64 UNIX

This section lists the limitations for Tru64 UNIX® for fibre-channel connections.

Boot Volumes
IBM® does not support FlashCopy® or Remote Mirror and Copy on Tru64 boot volumes (cluster boot volumes). Do not attempt to clear persistent reserves on these LUNs.
UFS file system
The data will be inconsistent if you perform a FlashCopy on a target LUN which is online. Take the LUN offline before you perform a FlashCopy.
AdvFS file system
It is not possible to access a FlashCopy target volume on the same host as the source because of domain/fileset advfs concepts. You must unmount the source volume before you can access the target volume.

From the command line, type the following commands:

  1. # umount /source
  2. # mkdir /etc/fdmns/t_domain (target domain)
  3. # ln -s /dev/disk/dsk47c dsk47c (target volume)
  4. # mkdir /target
  5. # mount -t advfs dsk47c
  6. # source /target (source is fileset of source volume)
