The  svcconfig backup  command creates three files that provide information about the  backup process and the configuration. These files are created in the  /tmp  directory  of the configuration node. Table 9-1 describes the three files that are created by the  backup process. CMMVC6155I SVCCONFIG processing completed successfully The configuration backup file is in Extensible Markup Language (XML) format and can be  imported into your IBM FlashSystem 9100 documentation spreadsheet. The configuration  backup file might contain too much data; for example, it contains information about each  internal storage drive that is installed in the system. Importing the file into your IBM  FlashSystem 9100 documentation spreadsheet might make it unreadable. In this case, consider collecting the output of specific commands. At a minimum, you should  collect the output of the following commands: Note:  Most CLI commands shown above will work without the  svcinfo  prefix, however  there might be some that do not work with just the short-name, and so require the  svcinfo  prefix to be added.  Import the commands into a spreadsheet, preferably with each command output on a  separate sheet. One way to automate either task is to first create a batch file (Windows) or shell script (UNIX  or Linux) that collects and stores this information. For more information, see 9.8, “I/O  Throttling” on page 349. Then, use spreadsheet macros to import the collected data into your  IBM FlashSystem 9100 documentation spreadsheet.

Copy the backup file from the configuration node. With MS Windows, use the PuTTY  pscp utility. With UNIX or Linux, you can use the standard  scp  utility. 3. If the process fails, resolve the errors and run the command again. 2. Check that the  svcconfig backup  command completes successfully, and examine the  command output for any warnings or errors. The following output is an example of the  message that is displayed when the backup process is successful: Table 9-1 Files created by the backup process File name Description svc.config.backup.xml_<serial#> Contains your configuration data. svc.config.backup.sh_<serial#> Contains the names of the commands that were issued to  create the backup of the system. svc.config.backup.log_<serial#> Contains details about the backup, including any reported  errors or warnings.
