Alternate disk migration installation usage

The syntax for the alternate disk migration installation command is described.

The syntax is:

nimadm -l lpp_source -c NIMClient -s SPOT -d TargetDisks [ -a
       PreMigrationScript ] [ -b installp_bundle] [ -z PostMigrationScript] [
       -e exclude_files] [ -i image_data ] [ -m NFSMountOptions
       ] [ -o bosinst_data] [-P Phase] [ -j VGname ] [-Y ] [ -F ] [ -D ] [ -E
       ] [ -V ] [ { -B | -r } ]

Use the nimadm command to target the aix1 NIM client, using the spot1 NIM SPOT resource, the lpp1 NIM lpp_source resource, and hdisk1 and hdisk2 target disks, by typing the following:

nimadm -c aix1 -s spot1 -l lpp1 -d "hdisk1 hdisk2" -Y

Use the -Y flag to agree to all required software license agreements for the software being installed

Clean up alternate disk migration on client:

The syntax is:

nimadm -C -c NIMClient -s SPOT [ -F ] [ -D ] [ -E ]

Wake-up volume group:

The syntax is:

nimadm -W -c NIMClient -s SPOT -d TargetDisks [-m NFSMountOptions ] [-z
       PostMigrationScript ] [ -F ] [ -D ] [ -E ]

Put-to-sleep volume group:

The syntax is:

nimadm -S -c NIMClient -s SPOT [ -F ] [ -D ] [ -E ]

Synchronize alternate disk migration software:

The syntax is:

nimadm -M -s SPOT -l lpp_source [ -d device ] [ -P ] [ -F ]

mksysb to client migration:

The syntax is:

nimadm -T NIMmksysb -c NIMClient -s SPOT -l lpp_source -d TargetDisks
       -j VGname -Y [ -a PreMigrationScript ] [ -b installpBundle ] [ -z
       PostMigrationScript ] [ -i ImageData ] [ -m NFSMountOptions ] [ -o
       bosinst_data ] [ -P Phase ] [ -F ] [ -D ] [ -E ] [ -V ] [ -B | -r ]

mksysb to mksysb migration:

The syntax is:

nimadm -T NIMmksysb -O mksysbfile -s SPOT -l lpp_source -j VGname -Y [
       -N NIMmksysb ] [ -a PreMigrationScript ] [ -b installp_bundle ] [ -z
       PostMigrationScript ] [ -i image_data ] [ -m NFSMountOptions ] [ -o
       bosinst_data ] [ -P Phase ] [ -F ] [ -D ] [ -E ] [ -V ]

Client to mksysb migration:

The syntax is:

 nimadm -c nim_client -O mksysbfile -s SPOT -l lpp_source -j VGname -Y
       [ -N NIMmksysb ] [ -a PreMigrationScript ] [ -b installp_bundle ] [ -z
       PostMigrationScript ] [ -i image_data ] [ -m NFSMountOptions ] [ -o
       bosinst_data ] [ -P Phase ] [ -e exclude_files] [ -F ] [ -D ] [ -E ]
       [ -V ]
