Planning primary and secondary qtree locations

Planning the location of primary system qtrees or Open Systems directories and their corresponding secondary system qtrees is helpful for better storage management. Multiple primary system qtrees from multiple volumes and multiple Open Systems directories can all be backed up to corresponding secondary system qtrees in a single volume.

Step

1. List the primary system qtrees or Open Systems directories and their corresponding secondary system qtrees in a table. For an example, see the following table.

   Primary system qtree or directory location	Corresponding secondary system qtree location
   systemA:/vol/vol1/qtreeAA	sv_secondary:/vol/sv_vol/qtreeAA
   systemA:/vol/vol1/qtreeAB	sv_secondary:/vol/sv_vol/qtreeAB
   systemB:/vol/vol1/qtreeBB	sv_secondary:/vol/sv_vol/qtreeBB
   winsrvrA:c:\melzdir	sv_secondary:/vol/sv_vol/melzdir
   ux_srvrB:/usrs/moz_acct	sv_secondary:/vol/sv_vol/moz_acct

   Note: The maximum number of secondary system qtrees per volume is 255. SnapVault backup of qtrees over a Fibre Channel network is not supported.
