zfsadm unquiesce

Purpose

Makes an aggregate (and the file system that is contained in the aggregate) available to be accessed.

Options

-aggregate name

Specifies the name of the aggregate that is to be unquiesced. The aggregate name is not case-sensitive. It is always translated to uppercase. An aggregate must be attached to be unquiesced. All current activity against the aggregate is allowed to resume. Any mounted file systems are unquiesced.

-all

Specifies that all attached aggregates are to be unquiesced. Use this option or use -aggregate.

-help

Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options that are specified with this option are ignored.

-level

Prints the level of the zfsadm command. This option is useful when you are diagnosing a problem. Except for -help, all other valid options that are specified with -level are ignored.

Usage

The zfsadm unquiesce command allows activity that was suspended by zfsadm quiesce, to be resumed.

The aggregate is typically quiesced prior to backing up the aggregate. After the backup is complete, the aggregate can be unquiesced and the backup change activity flag can be reset.

Privilege required

The issuer must have READ authority to the data set that contains the IOEFSPRM file and must be logged in as root or have READ authority to the SUPERUSER.FILESYS.PFSCTL resource in the z/OS® UNIXPRIV class. If you are not using IOEFSPRM but instead, you are using parmlib (IOEPRMxx), the issuer is required to be logged in as root or to have READ authority to the SUPERUSER.FILESYS.PFSCTL resource in the z/OS UNIXPRIV class.
