For details of the drd mount command, including available options and extended options, see The drd mount Command.

To mount the inactive system image, execute the drd mount command:

# /opt/drd/bin/drd mount

The command locates the inactive system image and mounts it.

The output of this command is similar to Example 4-1.

Example 4-1 The drd mount Command Output

# /opt/drd/bin/drd mount

=======  12/08/06 22:19:31 MST  BEGIN Mount Inactive System Image (user=root)
         (jobid=dlkma1)

       * Reading Current System Information
       * Locating Inactive System Image
       * Mounting Inactive System Image

=======  12/08/06 22:19:52 MST  END Mount Inactive System Image succeeded.
         (user=root)  (jobid=dlkma1)

The drd mount command automatically chooses the mount point for the inactive system image. If the image was created by the drd clone command, the mount point is /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001. If the clone has been booted, drd mount mounts the original system at the mount point /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_000. To see all mounted file systems, including those in the active and inactive system images, execute the following command:

# /usr/bin/bdf

The output of this command should look similar to Example 4-2, if the drd mount command has been executed:

Example 4-2  The bdf Command Output

# /usr/bin/bdf file system kbytes used avail %used Mounted on /dev/vg00/lvol3 1048576 320456 722432 31% / /dev/vg00/lvol1 505392 43560 411288 10% /stand /dev/vg00/lvol8 3395584 797064 2580088 24% /var /dev/vg00/lvol7 4636672 1990752 2625264 43% /usr /dev/vg00/lvol4 204800 8656 194680 4% /tmp /dev/vg00/lvol6 3067904 1961048 1098264 64% /opt /dev/vg00/lvol5 262144 9320 250912 4% /home /dev/drd00/lvol3 1048576 320504 722392 31% /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001 /dev/drd00/lvol1 505392 43560 411288 10% /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001/stand /dev/drd00/lvol4 204800 8592 194680 4% /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001/tmp /dev/drd00/lvol5 262144 9320 250912 4% /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001/home /dev/drd00/lvol6 3067904 1962912 1096416 64% /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001/opt /dev/drd00/lvol7 4636672 1991336 2624680 43% /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001/usr /dev/drd00/lvol8 3395584 788256 2586968 23% /var/opt/drd/mnts/sysimage_001/var

In this output, file systems identified as dev/vg00/* are the active system image file systems. Those identified as /dev/drd00/* are the inactive system image file systems.
