Repair damaged data on a replication target
With Tivoli® Storage Manager Version 7.1.5, when a storage pool protection process runs for a directory-container storage pool on a source server, damaged extents in the target server's storage pool are repaired automatically.
Information about what is repaired is recorded in the activity log for the target server.
The automatic repair has the following limitations:
- Both the source server and the target server must be at V7.1.5 or later.
- To be repaired, extents must already be marked as damaged on the target server. The repair process does not run an audit process to identify damage.
- Only target extents that match source extents are repaired. Target extents that are damaged but have no match on the source server are not repaired.
- Extents that belong to objects that were encrypted are not repaired.
- The timing of the occurrence of damage on the target storage pool and the sequence of REPLICATE NODE and PROTECT STGPOOL commands can affect whether the repair process is successful. Some extents that were stored in the target storage pool by a REPLICATE NODE command might not be repaired.
